My kids LOVED waking up to see the animals. I'm not a big animal person (ok, I realize with 7 cats that may be hard to believe , but I'm a cat person, just not really into the zoo animal thing), but anyway even though I didn't think I would care that much for it- it was pretty cool! It just added something that you can't get at any of the others!

We loved the food situation- great walk-up (something that really ticks us off about BWV & SSR-limited walk-up selections), plus two unique sit-downs. The pool was nice too. I can't wait for the Kidani to open so we can see what that has to offer. Personally, I love OKW & BCV, but AKV will probably join that group.

The only thing we didn't like was that bathroom set-up- not a split bath in the one beds and no second bath yet until Kidani. Huge bathroom, but we like having a little more separation like OKW or SSR. Once Kidani is done though- that should be resolved!

I say try it if you can get in!

Sounds great! Can't wait to stay at AKV - definitely going to try Kidani out for the week before or after the cruise - I think it'll be open by then and that new pool complex looks like it's going to be amazing....

I agree!! I sometimes yell at everyone to quit wearing clothes! But DH is my biggest culprit since he wears a uniform every day then another change of clothes. Plus his clothes are alot bigger than the rest of ours. I hate

I used to hate it when DH put his work shirts in the laundry basket - now he gets them laundered elsewhere, it's made a big difference...

I'm sending you several tins of baked beans...

Thanks but no thanks! I HATE beans.

Hi there!

I'm Karen from London, UK - married and have 3 kids tho' 2 are all grown up now so will prob only be cruising with youngest DS14 Samuel... I'm a SAHM at the moment but plan on going back to Uni in September...

Really?!! That's terrific! What do you want to get in to? Some day I hope to get back to school.

 

[PrincessMom2002]

I mooned a little in my younger days - usually at the local disco where I often felt compelled to remove my skirt and boogie around the dancefloor in stockings and heels!!! Actually that was how my DH first encountered me - he was dating some other chick but liked my legs so much he dumped this poor girl and got a mutual friend to set us up about a month later!!! Aaah and they say that romance is dead...

And you say you have something to learn from ME? Other than mooning, my clothes stayed put.

I'm starting a degree in Psychology and Criminology...

OMG I love baked beans!!! They are my weakness - tho' maybe I shouldn't divulge that...

You don't know what you missed out on, Abby!!!

You can have them all!! Beans literally make my gag reflex kick in. All beans, any beans, except green beans.

Morning,, All!!!!!!

I agree, that was a trick question!!! Tell your DW that I had a similar conversation with my DH on Thursday. He didn't get it right.

Note to Abby - It's SUNDAY - you are allowed to sleep-in!! What in the world were you doing up so early?!

 

[hmansure]

Yeah, I imagine most boys get over it quite quickly - my youngest DS has never seen the need to protect his modesty quite so energetically...

Jake is quite "comfortable" as well.... he's a born streaker or something!

 

[hmansure]

Hi!!! Glad you got everything squared away. Nice to "meet" you! What kind of dance does your studio teach?

I am married (10 years this coming Thurs), have an 8 year old boy and 5 year old girl, work full-time, live the life of a typical busy parent! Sounds so unexciting eh?!

Oh, I must have missed this piece of info b4.... big plans?!

uh oh, should we be concerned that there will be a similar show come August 2009 or are those days safely behind you?!

Ahhh, nothing like getting all jacked up on baked beans, removing the skirt, and dancing the night away.... Karen - you're killing me!

Is it the Heinz Baked Beans in tomato sauce that you prefer?! The lads we host every summer for soccer camp always ask for that when they are here!

 

[hmansure]

You don't know what you missed out on, Abby!!!

No cell phone cameras back then!! It would have made a nice photo remembrance!

 

[hmansure]

Morning,, All!!!!!!

Hi Kristin! As you can see, we've really never wavered off the flatulence conversation from last night.... I'm still confident this group hasn't hit their all-time low yet though!

 

[hmansure]

I'm starting a degree in Psychology and Criminology...

ooohhh interesting....

"Simplicity - read Marcus Aurelius.... of each particular thing ask - what is it in itself? What is its nature? What does he do... this man you seek?"

 

[CustardTart]

uh oh, should we be concerned that there will be a similar show come August 2009 or are those days safely behind you?!

Very much behind me!!! I think of it now as some sort of innate mating ritual and, once it had the desired effect, my provocative, partially clad, dancing-on-tables self ceased to be...

I do still love to boogie on down tho' - just tend to keep the clothes all buttoned up...

Hey, Harry,

This group is a lively one that is for sure. Tell your son good luck at the soccer game today!!!!!
