Our Big Al is on our bed, we got him in 1983. I remember seeing him for the first time, I nearly died laughing when he started singing. My brother Pete was with us and was mad we went in to see the show. When I started laughing at Big Al, Pete totally lost it and was on the floor with me in laughter. A very precious moment. Pete was 11 at the time.

I am so glad that WDW has the original show. I just love Big Al. A few years ago we were waiting for the parade in frontier land and Sean runs over and grabs my hand and said Come on. I was what about the girls (Sarah and a friend of my little girl), "they'll be ok we are not going far". There was Big Al dancing, and he grabbed my arm, and it was just me an him. I think Sean has pics of it somewhere. One of my greatest moments at Disney.

[DISNEYDUET]

I LOVE IT!!!!!! Robin you are so cute!!!!!

Evening kids. Just thought I pop on in for a second.

Got the Income Statement template to work correctly - took several hours to tweak. Switching to the new accounting package, this is the first time I had to run the Income Statement for the whole corporation (15 divisions). Well, the old system had canned reports, but in the new one, I had to get it set up to print what I needed.

Now I just need to get all the month end entries in.

Trip insurance question.

I purchased our trip insurance for the Repo yesterday and am wondering if I insured myself for enough.

The total cruise is $5,199, air to LA is on FF miles, so I could switch those no cost, flight back from MCO is about $110 each. I figure the cruise breaks down to about $2,093 for Suz and I and $1,013 for DS.

I insured for $3,000 each.

I figured it would be at most right now for Suz and I $2,203. That leaves almost $800 for unreimbursable hotels (if any) and any excursions (I'm assuming we'll get charged regardless if we make the ship).

Am I missing anything or do you think we're o.k.?

Ugh totally forgot about this. This sounds good to me, I'm going to put down 2,250 since our total cruise was 4500. I'm getting it more for the medical coverage anyways.

We went to the car show last night to look at new cars. We have now decided on a smaller, more full economical car. I want the new Mazda Speed 3.
263-hp 2.3L DOHC 16 valve inline 4 cylinder
Heated leather seats and dual climate control.
Bose premium sound system with 6 disc cd changer
Navigation system

Shelley,

I like the Mazda 3 too. For a small car, it is sporty.

263 horses out of a 4-cylinder. A lot of V-6's don't even get close to that.

MPG isn't that great on it (18/26), but who cares, it's fast and fun.

I think that should be enough coverage Jeff. I always add in a little extra $$ too, just to be safe.

I figured I had to cover one leg of the flights and any hotel charges (those would only be if we go to a DL hotel).

Who are you insuring with?

I went with Travelex. Have for the last several cruises. If you go with them, the cost is the same from $2,001 to $2,500, so you might want to bump yours up a bit. Play with the numbers and see what the premium changes to. I go for the maximum I can get over my minimum requirement (i.e. if I only needed $2,600, I go to $3,000 because it is the same). This way I have extra coverage in case I need it.

Evening all! I've been lurking the past two or three days and enjoying all the pics! Keep them coming. I've slept most of the weekend; I guess getting ready for the big spring forward in the morning!

Better than my Jeep Wrangler or a large SUV!

I'm never sure how they look at it if I would have to make a claim. Do they take the total and divide by 3? If so, then I'm way over covered. The trip will not cost me $9,000 (unless you put in Suz shopping ).

I always play it safe and try to figure what the cost of Suz and I are and then DS is free to that limit. Rather be safe than sorry.
