    Just back from Vist.Villages/Quality Suites maingate east(Long)

    Karen, Sorry to be so long with my reply. We got a discounted rate through hotel kingdom.com and then they discounted further(don't know why, didn't push it !!) when we arrived. Glad they did though, don't think it was worth more than the rate we paid. Even the kids commented on the lesser...

    Episode 9: Did someone order room service?

    Unbelievably FUNNY! In my mind's eye, I see a row of fathers with their babies on a changing table. The judges are poised with their scorecards. Contestant #1 stands back as his baby does a full twist with a half-gainer ending in a double foot splat as the fire hose gushes forth. The judges...

    Episode 8: The Octopus meets Shamu

I can just see one pregnant mom, arms crossed, foot tapping, actively glaring in your direction with the words "I told you so" echoing loudly in her head as she waits for the inevitable drenching. But as all of us know, Octupi love water and the first word out of his mouth would...

    Vistana Resort?

    Oops, sorry. Forgot some key answers: Timeshare talk is 90 minutes, you aren't required to go. Much, much more room than any of the moderates (and probably the deluxes too!)!:smooth:

    priceline booking question.

    We learned the hard way to book 2 rooms when they only allow 4 to a room. Fortunately, they allowed my room request for 2 queen beds at the Hilton. Our bid was for 95/night for 4/30-5/5. Any questions, you may email me. <IMG WIDTH="15" HEIGHT="15" SRC="/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" alt="razz">
