Ok. Time for some goo news! AP rates came out today and I switched my room and saved about $300!!! Woody was even more excited. He said more money for Star Wars cr@p. Oh brother!

we're hoping for a AP discount at xmas but i hear they have discontinued those closer to the 25th.

inquiring minds need to know.
anything that might make the cover of the london times?

we paid $99 last oct. internet rate. we got a car from budget at airport, dropped it off the day of the cruise down the road from raddison and took budgets shuttle over to the terminal. worked great!!
just like cass told us it would.

I'm glad that worked out for you guys! I'm debating on doing that with the three of us or getting Rob to drop us off at the port and then getting him to return the vehicle.

But if Cheryl can work in a deal with an early shuttle then Rob can go return the vehicle, get dropped off back at the Radisson and we can all take the shuttle together

Here’s one of my favorites:

Red leaf lettuce
Baby Spinach
Strawberries, sliced
Grilled Chicken Breast
Paul Newman’s Light Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing
(TGIF makes this as their Strawberry Fields Salad but they add pecans and shredded Parmesan cheese. Although delicious, I don’t add the extra fat and calories by adding those two.)
To make it even healthier yet, I use only organic items.

I also make this one:
Red leaf lettuce
Baby spinach
Fresh Mango, cubed
1 c of seedless red grapes
Grilled Chicken Breast
Brianna’s Blush Wine Vinaigrette Dressing


(Doesn’t Vinaigrette look like it’s spelled incorrectly? I “spell checked” it though.)






Cheryl, thanks for doing all that work for us. Count us in plz. (2 adults/1 room) and (4 adults/1 room).

Thanks we will try these.

Parking at the terminal is $12.00 a day I believe, unless it went up again.


I always rent from Budget, their office is within walking distance from the Radisson.


OK, I have to get out of here NOW!!!!!

I think it's up to $15.00 a day.

heres a bumper sticker i got off ebay a few years ago.
i made a copy of it and have it hanging in my work area.
a boss comes around one day and says"so you have the best job in the world huh? we may have to work you a little harder."
i said no" read it again" if you work at disney, its the best job in the world.

none of my dads family would come to our wedding because we didnt get married in a catholic church. to this day i havnt forgiven them.

Wow that is awful, life is just too short. We are Catholic and I can't imagine not going to a family wedding. They need to go to confession.....

No, I don't think so.

[Dyerneeds]

It has really slowed down, I had 80 something people for sign up, then 50 now 33. But most are losing so that's good.

Good for you. Judgemental people drive me crazy. Every one is entitled to their own choice. Why do certain ones think they are right. We run into that alot down here in the bible belt. We catholics are a minority. I don't shove our religion in any ones face and I don't want to be preached at either!

Sorry I will get off my soap box.

Question:

We land in LAX at 11:00 a.m. on the Thursday before the Repo. The best cost option for getting to the hotel near DL is a shuttle van. According to their site, it will get us to the hotel at 1:05 p.m.

Cal Adv is open until 9:00 p.m. and Disneyland is open until Midnight. Would you go to the parks that day?

I figure by the time we get checked in, bags to the room and on the shuttle to the parks, we'd get there no later than 2:30.

We plan on using our WDW park hopper passes to convert to a DL/CA park hopper. By doing this, we'd use 2 days of passes since we'd be going again on Friday all day. (one-day single park tickets will cost us $66/$56, one-day hopper would be $91/$81, and 2 day hoppers $132/$112 - each listed Adult/Child. Our cost per day on our WDW 10-day hoppers with plus features is less than $40 per day - not including the plus feature days.)

Is this a good use of our tickets or would you spend the extra $ and buy just DL/CA tickets?

Also, a rental car would be $21 more than the shuttle. Would you spend the money in hopes of shaving off some time gettng to the hotel?

If you convert your hopper can you then not use it at WDW? I am going to be there for one day in June and $92.00 seems so high.

robins had a pretty stressful week and wasnt on there as much as she'd like.
or on this thread for that matter. she misses chatting with everyone.
she says, only 9 more classes and she'll be done with school.

 

[JOANNEL]

Does any one know how much the fuel surchage is going to be? I was going to wait and book this in sept and get the onboard credit and discount. But if this is going to be more that that it's not worth waiting..

It's a shame when life gets in the way!!!!

 

[Walt & Di]

wonder if walt and di have left for wdw yet?
it would be cool if they had a mini meet with lori and scott down there.

We are arriving at WDW around 11:45 tonight...Have their phone number and will call...Although we have different itineraries, we may see them at the pool resort....

We are getting very excited and the transformation to age 10 is beginning, because I told my boss that my daddy can beat up his daddy
