I suspect even if everyone else is wearing said wooly hat we'll still be trying to catch some rays along SAB
We've felt pretty deprived this summer in these northern climes

No problem! There's a lot of info there, and it makes it very easy for me to answer questions since I know where to find it.

We were also stopped by the lifeguards at Santa Monica beach the end of October for sitting on the beach reading wondering if we were OK the temp was only 76!!

We have had the odd cool early morning/late evening at that time of year (7.30am character breakfast @ MK)

I have more of a problem with the fierce air con in shops/restaurants than outside.

We have been happy in short/t-shirts with a hoody/fleece for morning,evening and air con and I would pack a pair of capri's in case of cooler weather.

And that is exactly why the first line to the answer is "Where are you from?" I am in New England, and fairly tolerant of cool temps and pools as well.

Teena, Welcome back! Thanks for sharing your cruise pictures w/us. I always enjoy hearing about your adventures.
Have fun visiting Jeanne and Lily! I haven't been to Disneyland since the early 90's. I enjoyed it, but WDW is the best!

Dee, Seeing the Noodles are on holiday, I'm glad we have the "flat travelers" Looking forward to more of their adventures!

To all heading to the world soon, Have a wonderful time!

Really helpful explanation, thanks, I s'pose it really is a case of what you're used too. Thanks esp. for the steer on clothing, gives me a really good idea of what to expect.... and it sounds good!

I am almost packed (my DH, not so much). Still have to get through one more day at school and then my shift at penney's tomorrow night. Can't wait until we go under the WDW arch Friday morning

LOL!! Love it! My kids will make an adventurer out of him, I suspect.

I suspect my northern kids will be all over that pool no matter the temps in early December.

Enjoying the TR, Cindy!

I remember the very first time I ever went to Florida. It was March and the first day, I was in the pool. There was another guy there who said "you must be from New England if you're already in the pool". He said that nobody from Florida would be in the pool since it was only in the 70's. I told him it was 26 degrees when I left Massachusetts, so I was taking advantage of the 70's and the pool.

5 more days!

Just checked again with my kids' school and there is no school for two of the days we will be gone so they will only miss 3 days of school for going to WDW for a week!

So lucky!!

Any new closures at any of the parks that maybe hasn't been announced?

[natebenma]

PHEW!!! I think I am all caught up! Over 10 pages since Sunday.

I will add you to the Be Our Guest lit for October. Are you staying at BC or YC?

Thanks for your kind words! I appreciate it!

Thanks!

to the thread!

Good luck with your decision! Let us know if you have any more questions.

Do you have an upcoming trip to the resort planned, or are visiting one of the restaurants there?

Welcome back Teena...but looks like we will just miss seeing you this year.

Congrats to your sister on the new job. That is such important work she will be doing!

I'll add you to the Be Our Guest list

That picture is great. I am jealous of the 3 flat amigos, but enjoy living vicariously through them

I'm about 60 days away from my annual Orlando conference. It takes place at the Marriott Grand but there is no way I can stay off site when I'm down there.

The flip side of that is that my work pays for my trip so I can't stay at my beloved BC!!! As of right now I'm booked at POR for 4 nights.

I know I'm not supposed to look a gift horse in the mouth but I can't help but a be a little bummed about not being at the BC. I know I will be back in August for our annual family trip but still just a smidge bummed out!! The only good thing is that I can still stop over anytime I want and say hello to Teena!!!

Help me through it BC friends!!!

I was at All Star Movies with 145 Teenagers for 5 days in June. I survived!
