Hey Cynthia!

I have a lot of catching up to do and I am going to start on that very soon. Love the intros! Now I will attempt to be current. Wish me luck!

I forgot to add... great stars on the first post! LOLOLOL

I'm glad I made it through the first couple posts. I am just reading and I'm feeling stressed out.

Glad you made it to Disney! Whew, I hope everything goes smooth from here... (knowing your trips probably ain't happening LOLOL)

Obviously your family gets inside my brain. I had a dream the other night that I was trying to help Kendall choose a college! Of course this was happening at a Disney looking place - perhaps Vero? I can't remember all the details, but she asked a lot of questions. I'm sure my answers weren't helpful since I know nothing about soccer schools and west coast schools...

Somehow I missed your previous update...anyway, all caught up. Bug bites are awful, especially at night!

The birds in your beach pictures, are those the ones that fly really close to the surface of the water? They are fun to watch!

Looking forward to reading your cruise days!

Hi Tim!!!



Luck! Well, hopefully chapter links help

Yeah, sorry about that, we can run a little bit frantic can't we? It's not all stressful, I promise! Nor is it all smooth.

Fortunately smooth does outweigh stressful in the big picture, big time on this trip.

That is hysterical Sheree! Well she is looking at a fair amount of close to the beach ish schools, that have soccer...in Cali. But it is still very early days.

That they are, they make the nights seem endless at times. No fun.

Yes, those are the birds, no idea what they are called but they are just mesmerizing!

Hi Tim!!!

Yes chapter links do help. My last comment should of said 'Love all the STATS in the first post' NOT STARS...

Anyways... I got a little further...

Great location at OKW!!! Love the room.

There may or may not have been an incident the first night where a child started to walk into our bedroom at an inopportune time lets just say I was thankful that the window between the tub area and the bedroom (shutters that you can open) was closed and we were able to redirect said child (who never remembers his middle of the night adventures anyway) back into the right room and exit.

How long is the boat ride from DTD to OKW?

Love your paddle boat adventure!

WOW!!! Your bus limo from OKW to POR was awesome! What a great bus driver

I've been wanting to see YeeHaw Bob for a while but it never happens. Someday Someday.


Be back later to read more.

I almost made a comment and then wondered...maybe I did write about stars...and didn't go back to check.

Anyways... I got a little further...

Great location at OKW!!! Love the room.

I was thrilled with it, it was just perfect for us!

How long is the boat ride from DTD to OKW?

15 maybe? We waited as long for the boat as the ride itself. Maybe less or more than 15, depending on whether it stops at the Treehouses and at SSR.

Love your paddle boat adventure!

It was definitely an adventure!

Our driver was SO wonderful! It really made our night. YeeHaw is so much fun, I'm glad we made the effort to get over there, the boys just loved it. And it's free!

I hear you, just when I think I'm caught up, I'm not. My problem is I'll read a lot of the threads on my phone but it's hard to comment and then I don't make it back in a timely fashion or I think I commented on it as I was thinking about what I'd say but then forget to go back. An accidental lurker!

is this different than the granny one you have going? whats the name rosie, ill be over to pick onyou shortly.

Is there another new one? I get confused too so if you can put the link here that would be great!

 

[KatMark]

Just checking to see if there was an update since I doubt I'll have much time tomorrow what with the surprise and all.

I've got a note in my folder and on my phone to look for the Eeyore hat.

I'm glad that K was able to get her birthdat pancakes for breakfast... Room service shouldn't be closed... What's the point of that?

Aggghhh... to the bug bites on the feet and ankles... that is such an annoying place to get bit (not that there are really any great places...)

& not being able to sleep... such a miserable feeling...

Your walk pictures on the beach were lovely...

but I'm having a rather ominous feeling about you getting there on time... or maybe its a squeaker...

 

[Moira222]

Your last morning sounds wonderful despite bug bites and a bothered boy.

Love the sunrise shot, just gorgeous.

Looking forward to the cruise side of the trip!

Enjoy San Francisco

Holy cats, you're back! Oh I can't wait for your TR!!!!

Room service should NOT be closed, craziest thing I'd ever heard. It's not like it was 1am!

Aggghhh... to the bug bites on the feet and ankles... that is such an annoying place to get bit (not that there are really any great places...)

There are worse. The eyelid is not terribly fun, the scalp, behind the knee, I can think of a few others....

Because we usually run on time huh.

I suppose it's good we both run perpetually a little late, we aren't annoyed with each that way.

It was a lovely walk!

It was a lovely early morning to be sure!

Looking forward to the cruise side of the trip!

Almost to the cruise! I'd hoped to get an update up but...3 client parties today, my dinner club's holiday party, packing, work which includes wrangling folks to get client xmas cards signed so I can get them in the mail and start gift delivery, and my sisters birthday is cramping my style. Not to mention opening day for 2014 cruises so I had a ressie to try to move this am. Which doesn't mean it will actually happen but I'd like the option. So the update is now unlikely but you never know.

I will try to get over there! Probably after we get back from SF

oh brother.

Exactly! Lol

Hi all! I was hoping to post a couple of pics from San Fran while we are still here, some very cool Disney moments but...cannot quite figure out the photobucket link via the app so you'll have to wait! Some great stories

Something to look forward to.

Hi Cynthia! I'm loving your TR. I would have been so stressed on leaving day. And on Kendall's Birthday! I have to have a plan and it is very hard for me to let go if things don't run smoothly. Quick thinking on DH's part to see about getting them to go. I hate disappointing the girls especially if it is something simple like that. (Well it sounds simple but not being in your own kitchen makes it a little harder. )

 

[Poolrat]

Glad San Fran was fun. Can't wait to hear all about it.
