Dee - Have a wonderful trip!

MM - Welcome Back! Can't wait for your pictures!

Does anyone know if there is a mirror in the bathroom other than the large mirror? You know, one of those wall mounted make-up type mirrors? And if so, can it be moved so as to allow you to check the back of your head?

I've had the light-up make-up mirrors as well as the wall-mounted shaving mirrors. Not sure I'd be wanting to use either to check the back of my head with. If you have a light-weight one to put in your toiletries bag that would be the way I would go.

Dee, have a great vacation in Puerto Rico. MM, welcome home. I'm really looking forward to those pictures and stories of dinner with the "mystery guest". For all leaving now or in the next week for WDW, enjoy the trip and be sure to let us know how it went. Don't stress over the weather. Consider it part of the adventure.

My hubby and I are headed to Puerto Rico (WITHOUT THE KIDDOS) to celebrate our 25th anniversary, which was last July. This is the first time we have been away together alone since the kids were born and we are UBER-EXCITED!

Have a great time! Don't forget the sunscreen!!

Well... some of us middle aged women have been known to use, ahem, our cleavage as a temporary mug holder. You'll have to take a good look at yourself and decide if that method or the carabiner clip will work best for you. Of course one of the over looked advantages of the cleavage method is that it keeps you that much cooler and, with the simple addition of a straw, drinking is that much easier....

Now you're making ME panic.

Where are you seeing an extended forecast?

Just remember that the weather changes all the time... when I started checking it was rain everyday of my trip and now it isn't

Hey everyone! Thanks for the nice sendoff! I really appreciate it.

Your comment brought back a memory that makes me smile. On our one day trip to the MK last summer, my husband went to the locker we had rented at the train station to put something away. I think this was around 11 am. He came back and told me

"You can't go to the front of the park!"

"Why not?"

"There are people there who need you. You can't help them all"

So true!!!
Have a wonderful trip! We will all miss you while you're gone!

Just two weeks until our first trip to the beach club and we are so excited. We are flying in at 9 o'clock at night and I was wondering if it would be easier for us to get our luggage ourselves before going to the magical express?

Welcome back MM! Thanks for the chuckles this morning! My DD8 is one of those Hello Kitty lovers, but I must admit that her thrifty mom will not let her buy things in the store in Japan....poor kid! I am anxiously awaiting your photo montage!!

Have a great trip Dee!!

Could you please add me and my family to the 'Be our guest' post. We will be staying at BCV from 24-30 August 2012 - myself, DH and DS (9). We are so excited, it's the only WDW DVC resaort we haven't yet stayed at and we can't wait.

I'll gladly add you to the list!

I'm glad you are finding this thread helpful.

Welcome back, to reality

Thank you so much for your very detailed report about Stormalong Bay. Or as detailed as you could get without being escorted out by a couple of lifeguards with six pack abs. Wait, that does not sound so bad...

Thanks also for the great info on your drinking around the world.

Really looking forward to your pictures and peeking at the BC merchandise, but the Hello Kitty motif description scares me a bit.

Get some rest tonight!

OK folks, now that MM has clocked back in, she has given me the tag and I will be off for a few days. My hubby and I are headed to Puerto Rico (WITHOUT THE KIDDOS) to celebrate our 25th anniversary, which was last July. This is the first time we have been away together alone since the kids were born and we are UBER-EXCITED!

I still plan on making a new thread tomorrow, just to be sure this one doesn't get shut down if we get past 250 pages while I'm gone. MickeyT has graciously agreed to keep the Be Our Guest list updated in my absence.

Happy Anniversary Dee!!!
You are definately long overdue for a kidless vacation
Have a great RELAXING trip!

Welcome jojo! We have used the luggage service with ME everytime we have flown but we have always arrived in the morning. But if I were you I would grab my luggage and bring it with me. I would not want anyone bringing my luggage in the middle of the night nor would I want to wait until the next day. Have fun and let us know (good or bad, we can take it!) how you liked the BC.

I just wanted to post real quick. We got checked in on friday morning and had some major pixie dust sprinkled on us. We were upgraded to a two bedroom suite on the 3rd floor. The resort is beautiful and the club level castmembers have been absolutely wonderful. We saw Teena in the lobby today but she was busy talking to other guests so we didnt get a chance to meet her yet. Hopefully tomorrow . I've taken tons of pictures of our suite to add to the thread. And for anyone wondering, our room actually has two phone books and comes with a keurig coffee machine with a large selection of coffee and tea kcups. I will post my pics next week when we get home

In the past we've depended on ME for our luggage delivery. Our last trip we didnt arrive until after 10pm. Getting our own luggage and going to the ME area only added about 10min to our normal trip. The great thing was arriving so late there was no one in line. we were at YC in less than 90min of touchdown. It was nice having our luggage with us upon arrival. Have a wonderful trip!

 

[kelleigh1]

YAY!!! Thank you MM for the resort merchandise photos. I'm already shopping in my head.

 

[natebenma]

I decided that I am NOT going to start the new thread until I return.

I don’t think we will get to 250 pages in the next few days. Even if we do, it is not automatic that we are shut down right when we hit the mark. And even if the moderators shut us down they will probably continue the thread on a new page.

And very worse case scenario, even if they don't, and I am locked out, I am backing up the posts on the thread now so we will be back in business in no time if it comes to that.

Marlton Mom- thanks so much for posting the pictures before I leave! I really like the t-shirt! The jacket is cool and very practical too.

Mike- the Be Our Guest List is all yours!

Once again, everyone, thanks so much for the nice anniversary messages and wishes for a good trip!

I am signing off- everyone have a great week! I'll be back on Friday.

 

[wilma-bride]

YAY!!! Thank you MM for the resort merchandise photos. I'm already shopping in my head.

Me too - we love to get a magnet from each resort we've stayed at so I will definitely be picking up a BC magnet in August
