Which one is CBR? Where is it located?

Ok, I think I have a disease...I'm starting to ask questions about WDW hotels for a possible trip 2 1/2 years away!!!!

It's called Disneyitis and I have been afflicted since early childhood When I was in my late teens, I printed a sign out that had the word Disneyitis and it's definition and I hung it on my wall. But I used a scripty font and it didn't look like Disney-itis...my brothers and sisters (who oddly enough don't suffer from the same disease ) used to make fun of me and say that I had Disney-*its, cus that's what it looked like with that font...(it's a bad slang word for your chest area, if you can't figure out what letter the * is replacing )

Joanne, Melody & Sheri - Hi Girls - just been on Cass's BOB site and so glad that I can put a face to a name.

And Lori has her photo up - only 3 photos to go and we'll have full set

Hi Heather

Yep, that must be it....Disney-itis! I was SO bummed when I thought we weren't going to be able to make it to DL this year. We're still only going for 2 days, and it will be SUPER busy, but it should be fun.

And now, I'm planning WDW!

So, can we take a poll among the BOBers...what is your favorite WDW resort/hotel? We don't own DVC, so those don't count

 

[Timon]

518 days??????????? That's horrid!!

I wish those money trees grew in Canada!!!

 

[Walt & Di]

Great photos guys...you both look so trim and fit.

thanks Heather. We both feel good. We had a great time at Disney World and the Harley rally. We are crazy. Diane

But don't you have the same problem as the European countries and the Gov't Pruning division comes and hacks off half your branches up there?

We're heading that way soon enough down here. 2009 is going to be the beginning of some costly years.

 

[Walt & Di]

Great pics Walt and Di. And I agree with (?) , you both look wonderful.



I got one too Cheryl. I'm taking it to work today to look through. I actually got all three books that we were talking about earlier.







Hey Chris, we can add Kristin and Stacy too. Once Lynn cleans everyone's teeth, the girls can tighten, adjust, add, and remove all orthodontics work. Anyone else out there willing to donate their talents for to make us all healthy?



Thanks for clarifying Chris. I was a tad bit worried.



This one sounds good too.

thanks Nancy. We had a wonderful time. We are trying to get back in the normal eating habits. After eating like kings and queens all weekend it is hard. Diane

You leave next Wednesday Andy? I think we might be able to finish this thread by then. Whatcha think?

Oh, I'm quite sure of that.........

We love the Wilderness Lodge and the Animal Kingdom Lodge And one day we will be rich enough to stay at the Poly, cus everytime I visit that resort I say to myself, I gotta stay here!!!!!!!

But don't dismiss the DVC, we don't own yet either but we rent all the time and it has been great!!! You can rent a studio Sun-Thursday for cheaper than a lot of the resorts and you get a mini-kitchen!

 

[Verandah Man]

We've obviously done a swap Andy. We have your rain and you have our sun....give it back!

I think we need to share the sun Heather..........

 

[DISNEYDUET]

91 days until DISNEY!!!

3 Months until we land in Southern CA.

518 days, 21 hours and 48 minutes till Disney!!

OMG, that's pathetic


I had my countdown set to last years trip....we are now -217 days!!

22 days until we are back at Disney!!

 

[Verandah Man]

91 days until DISNEY!!!

Congrats Mel!!!

By this time next Wednesday, Hazel and I will be in the air on our way to Florida!!!

 

[DISNEYDUET]

Well, there goes iced tea all over my screen again..........

Heather its been lovely all day long here and still is. We're just about to go cycling now in the park.

I will be in WDW and DL in the same month. There is just something wrong with me........

Sounds like heaven to me . We did WDW, DL AND DLP all in one year - 1994- that was a great year for holidays

DS was 4 1/2 on our first cruise, and will be 6 1/2 on the second cruise (BOB). I think the next big trip after that will be WDW when he's 7 or 8 (I will have to start paying better attention to the school calendar after this trip ).

Jen - I was about to say the same thing - I would take him while he's young enough to skip school without it being a problem. If you went out of busy season eg November - the parks are empty and you get much better character interaction and no lines for rides.

Ellis has been going since he was 15 months old, but I'd say about 7 or 8 if you only plan on going once or twice - old enough to go on most rides and he'll remewmber it all too

We normally don't tell DS about any trip we're doing. He knew about the KK cruise because of Karen's DS and he knows about the BOB, but that is so far out he doesn't think about it.

He is unaware of the Repo, but Suz is telling him on the 30th, his last day of school. She does not want him distracted before then.

Yeah..... ........ I dont tell Ellis either ........ he guessed...... . not sure how...... might have been something to do with me leaping eround the lounge yelling "we're going to Disney for christmas"

I couldnt keep it a secret for a second....I'm too much of a kid. I get waaaay more excited than Ellis.

Fort Wilderness Cabins!!!

We went back to the garden centre today - Neil and I have been working hard - we've cut back the tree and reshaped it, put in the log roll border and cut the grass. Its looking quite nice now!

When I've mulched it I'll post the before and after shots - hopefully you'll be able to tell which is which

Ok, byeeeeeeeeeee...wish me luck with my new saddle - I might not be online much tomorrow - I might not be able to sit down

We're all off to the duck pond with a loaf of bread. The geese get a bit nasty though and we all run away scared (well, Ellis and I do...Neils just about tough enough to stand still ) ......til he gets surounded, then he runs away like a big girl

 

[Timon]

But don't you have the same problem as the European countries and the Gov't Pruning division comes and hacks off half your branches up there?

We're heading that way soon enough down here. 2009 is going to be the beginning of some costly years.

Yup, just about half And we pay GST (goods and services tax) on just about everything. At least we don't have provincial tax in Alberta. Most provinces have a sales tax on top of the GST. It's one of the reasons we don't live in British Columbia, you have to fork over 15% tax on everything (well as of January 1st of this year, it went down to 13%)
Otherwise I would be living in Victoria, where it rains in the winter instead of snowing

I hear you, Jeff....I don't think it's going to get any better for a long time...
