Different in a good way

We really enjoy our adult trips but are glad our grown kids still like going with us too

I'm glad it's getting close - my eyes are getting very tired.

There will be plenty of time for sleep when the job is done.

We very excited about taking our oldest son and his GF with us to WDW in December. She hasn't been since she was a little girl and never at holiday time.

The Disney decorations during the holidays are amazing, y'all will have a great time

Yes yes it does, but a perfect place to use it

I know, I just love it there around Christmas (except the crowds). We were there 2 years ago in Dec. We stayed there over Christmas one year when the kids were younger - at the Poly (my fav).

Into the 90's and beyond

They keep talking about the possible GF villas but I would have rather them been Poly DVC villas.

Our holiday trip was at the Contemporary. We watched them put the decorations up in one day. That was quite a show.

Have you ever stayed at GF? We haven't.

 

[lilliansmommy]

when do we all leave to go to the cruise? I leave Sat. morning and flying SW to orlando. then shuttle to port canaveral country inn and suites for the night.

We leave Saturday afternoon and are staying at the Radisson at the Port. Going to Fishlips for dinner!!

 

[DizDragonfly]

For those of you that are lucky enough to be sailing on the B2B tomorrow, I hope you have a wonderful time. We'll be looking for you on the Fishlips cam.

Thanks! We'll be waving to you!

We left OKW at 11am and drove to Cape Canaveral. We were able to check in and get into our room at Country Inn and Suites when we arrived about 12:20. We grabbed some lunch at McDonald's and drove up to Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge. Saw a gazzilion nasty HUGE spiders that completely freaked me out (I'm allergic). Saw one little gator and two BIG gators and a few manatees as well.

We drove and drove and drove before we finally found the two big gators. We'd given up and were super excited to actually see them finally! I think I got some decent pics of them. Have to see what they look like when I load them on the computer.

Have you ever stayed at GF? We haven't.

Neither have we, I hope DVC makes it possible for us to stay in the near future.

 

[TIGGERmetoo]

We did one of the holiday tours when we went last time. It was fun.

 

[friends with mickey]

go time
