Thanks Mike,

Is the game still on?

Thanks for jumping in

Today I had the oil changed in the Navigator and vaccuumed it out. Took it to the car wash (twice), but still not happy with it. It is and old truck and doesn't get cleaned very often, but I think it could be better.

Yes on ESPN, second half just started, so it will be on for a while. I won't make it to the end. Bedtime is coming soon.

They do look nice when they shine.

No problem.

Tomorrow I'm gonna tackle washing it by hand. Top off the fluids, etc. Then I just have to pack and start loading it for the trip.

Oh, that's why I didn't see it on the networks. We have never taken our TV off of vacation from England, and really don't miss it much. For some reason we get the major networks and a few others, about a dozen in all. I think it's because we left the internet turned on, and their system wouldn't let them turn the TV off completely?

Glad we fly
We are treating ourselves and going to and from the airport by a driver in a Lincoln Town Car. It was the same cost as 10 days of parking

This has truly been a memorable summer for you and your family. This trip is a great way to keep it going.

Yep, that's cool. Are you riding with some Potters, or did they just give you the tip?

We've never done a Limo or Van, but talked to some folks last year with a large group who chartered a van and were very pleased.

We've taken the Disney bus from the airport and from Disney World. Probably the way to go if you've got one child, because they play cartoon shorts on the way.

Last time we stayed in Port Canaveral with a rental. Country Inn & Suites (or Hampton, can't remember) let's you leave your car there and has a shuttle pick up. The shuttle is around $10 a person.

This year we're staying a Radisson. We can leave the car there, too, but the shuttle is free. We're on the 11am arrival shuttle.

Yes, invaluable for me. No way I could have done that with a job getting in the way

We are riding with the Potters from WDW to the port and back, which should be a blast. We also have the 11am check in time. We are using the car service from our home in Katy to the Houston airport and then home after the trip. Our car will get to stay in our garage instead of the airport parking lot.

I am sure the job will happen soon enough

The doors and the interior (heat) of your car will thank you!

Yep and getting dropped off at the skycap stand and picked up at the luggage retrieval is very nice too

Our tickers will change from 6 days to 5 days at midnight and that is when I will hit the sack
