Oh thank you
We still have 39 days to go but I am getting more excited each and every day!
This trip we are bringing someone that has never been to WDW, DD BF who is 23. I'm so excited about this...but yet I feel so much pressure. Has that ever happened to anyone else?
She barked orders from the chair - I think the loss of control bothered her. God love my Dad, he was very patient. But it made it difficult to see and do as much as we normally do, when it is just the three of us. I think the two days we enjoyed the most were when we sat together at the Grotto Pool, and the day mom decided to enjoy the Dolphin's balcony quietly and Dad came with us to the Studios. 
. and get to the parks a little later - maybe when the early risers are leaving for their pool breaks. Seems we never really take advantage of evening EMH and I would like to see more at night this year. I also made VERY few ADR this trip - we picked a few favorites, and will "wing it" for the other meals, or just enjoy what the Swan & Dolphin have to offer. 
Here, live at the Swan!
It's as beautiful as it always is! I haven't downloaded any photos yet, probably wait until we are home. We are in an alcove suite with beautiful views.
It is HOT and CROWDED. Fast Passes are gone for Soarin' and Test Track by 1pm.
You know you've been staying at a resort a lot when the bell captains start calling you by your first name!
I will check back later! Any questions, just ask.

They call me by name also, about 3 or 4 of them at the Swan. Always amazes me.

I guess it will probably be the same next week as well as far as heat and crowds . If you have time to keep us posted, I'll be reading!

and I can take the heat..but I was melting. We lived on cups of ice this trip, honestly, we sought out all the stations that had it and many were running out! We were in Orlando from 6/4-16 and only had rain 3 days, the 4th, 6th and yesterday...oh and a little today as we were leaving around 2 p.m.The Dolphin was awesome, we checked in during a sold-out ocnvention on the 9th so I was really worried about the room,( especially isnce our rate was so cheap @ 139) but ended up in room 11029 in the East Wing,( ready early at noon ) with a beautiful Boardwalk view,Tops of WS( Eiffel Tower, tops of Morocco buildings etc.) could even see DTD/Cirque tent... and also of the Swan, and TOT to the other side! We had the rooftop of the wing that has the shell fountains on top partially blocking, but it was a hoot seeing it power washed, and the window washer was working and came to our window while we were in the room, it was too funny being on the other side while he cleaned the window! Just in an hour ago from the airport so will post more later, but all is well at the S/D, the pool is THE place to be in this heat. tho they did have to close it the other night due to lightening in the area. Here's my tip for the Fountain ...order strawberries as a substitute for your chips with your sandwich/burger/dog...they are excellent and far better for you than chips! Busses ran great, boats ran great ( tho we walked to DHS and Epcot usually) the bar was hopping every night and the elevators are still the fastest things ever!
Yes, you can charge from S to D and D to S.
Nice hearing from you Blondie, enjoy. Did they call you Blondie, LOL?
Best wishes to everyone getting ready to have fun.
I think it's probably a good idea we have so much to do over the weekend to keep me from counting the hours!
