    Merged Irma impact on The Fort threads here

    We are scheduled to check in on 9/21 in a tent site. I'm torn between hoping they get everything cleaned up to open on 9/20, and thinking how nice it would be to stay in a resort (at tent price!) and not have to set up the tent and all that goes with tent camping, lol.

    What is a typical wedding gift ($) these days?

    I don't understand the concept either, and I'm from the south. We didn't invite people to our wedding and expect them to give us a monetary gift that covered the amount of their dinner! And I don't see that it matters if the bride & groom have an expensive wedding or are more budget-conscious -...

    Things to do at Cocoa Beach

    Yes, you have to go to Ron Jons! They are open 24/7. We were at KSC over Labor Day weekend, and had Sunday free. We ate a late lunch at Fish Lips, then walked down to the park at the end of the street and hung out with everyone else and watched the ships leave. It was really nice.

    Country Inn & Suites

    We were just there last weekend, but to visit Kennedy Space Center. I don't know about Priceline offers, but they did have a sign out front that said cruise parking is $6 per day. I don't know if that includes the shuttle, which is free when you book a room. I'd just call and ask them.

    How much is your grocery bill running weekly?

    Family of four includes 2 kids aged 13 and 11. I spend just under $100 per week on food only - $400 per month is my budget. I've been able to get it down to $330 a few times. I miss the good old days when my kids were younger and I only spent $250 per month . . . I use a lot of internet printed...

    La Quinta Cocoa Beach reviews

    I saw someone posted that on Trip Advisor when I was checking out hotels for our upcoming KSC trip. I wanted something less expensive than the Country Inn, but I don't want bedbugs and the Best Western just didn't seem that great. Luckily Country Inn came out with a 30% off offer, so we're...

    We are tentatively scheduled for this cruise. We sailed on the Dream earlier this year and booked while on board. Hopefully all will go as planned. My kids are teen pre-teen and we won't be doing the FE.
