    Questions About Galveston Cruise Hotels

    Coming in late to the discussion, but many years ago we stayed at the Harbor House Hotel before a cruise and it was great. http://www.harborhousepier21.com/

    I never win anything .....

    I won my first trip to Disney World. A local radio station was giving away trips, it was July '99 and I was packing up to go to Dallas to take the bar exam. I called in and 'qualified' on a Monday or Tuesday, then the next Monday they called me and told me I'd won the trip. I was excited...

    personal info on MB

    My understanding is that there is no info stored on your MB. It communicates with Disney servers which holds the info.

    The Official 2013 Wine and Dine Half Marathon Thread

    I intentionally put my run off till tomorrow so it wouldn't be so miserable. All my friends in Dallas are already talking about how cold it is and it's almost 90 here. :(

    The Official 2013 Wine and Dine Half Marathon Thread

    I did 10.5...so didn't make it quite 11, but my training has been off for about 3 weeks. I really can't believe I made it as far as I did. I had to stop and sit down on a bench for about 5 minutes at about 9.75. I was frustrated because it was so warm and muggy despite being the end of...

    Roll tide

    I was lucky enough to be there and it was CRAZY. We are really going to miss Johnny Manziel and Mike Evans next year. Disappointed in the loss, but I'm proud that our boys fought all the way to the end. We literally ran out of time. (for non-Ags, one of our sayings is that we never lose, we...

    I need help from the experienced runners!! I set out today to do 9.5 miles, as per the Jeff Galloway training plan, but due to a couple of issues, I only made it a little over 7. The plan calls for 11 in two weeks...and I think you aren't supposed to increase your mileage by too much at once...

    Disney comes up with possibly, the dumbest idea ever!!!

    In general, I do not like texting or people using their phones during movies. However, when I heard of this, I thought it was a good idea. I'm certainly not a kid, but I would probably bring my ipad to see what additional content was available during the movie--especially if it's content that...

    Disneybounding In The Parks?

    This! I have seen her outfits for a while, but I had no idea people actually carried the idea out. I will have to be on the lookout on my next trip.

    At what age do you remember your first Disney trip?

    She may not remember it, but you will.

    Have you ever lost your Disney traveling companion?

    OP, first, I'm so sorry for the heartbreak you've been through. You are having to re-learn how to live your life, and that's not easy. It sounds like you've been solo before...maybe you could try a short solo trip (long weekend) to try it out again. I took one solo trip to WDW a few years...

    The Official 2013 Wine and Dine Half Marathon Thread

    Maybe it's a newbie error, but I run in the mornings, average temp 77 and 90+% humidity (it's been as high as 96% I think...at that point it might as well just rain). If I don't get it done first thing in the morning, I won't do it later.

    Thank you so much for this. I am so worried about getting swept. I'm still over 19 min/mile (embarrassed to even put that here) but I'm praying that 3 more months training, plus lower temps, plus hopefully lower humidity means I'll be OK. (and I have to throw in a friendly Gig 'em ;) )

    The Official 2013 Wine and Dine Half Marathon Thread

    Two question for the experienced runners: First, since my long runs are increasing I'm getting irritation/blisters on the creases underneath my big toes. Today I used some moleskin and it worked well on one of them, not so well on the other. I'm sure with better placement it would be fine...

    Gel polish

    I found a base coat that made any polish work like a gel, and I really liked it. I did it for about three applications, but then I notice my nails were splitting and getting weak from the acetone needed to remove it. I haven't done it since. I will do it again once my nails have grown out...

    Texas hill country road trip

    Check out The Daytripper for some good things to do in the area. What's fun about central Texas are the towns that were populated by a particular nationality, such as Polish, Check, German, etc. That may be why the B&B's you are seeing are reminding you of Germany.

    Two questions for those in the know: 1) How much time should we budget on Friday for the expo. I'm running with my SIL and she seems to think it will be in and out, but I'm thinking it will take a couple of hours (including transportation time) to get our packets, even without shopping. We...

    BBB cancellations

    I have done some looking, but I'm not sure where I should look or post this. Is there a BBB cancellation thread like there is for dining reservations? Or do I just call every morning until something better opens up?
