That would be so nice to do!! We always end up in EPCOT at least once each, that where we spend the majority of our time so I'm thinking more and more of the YC. When we stayed at Poly we just walked over to TTC and took the monorail to EPCOT from there.
Sounds like you guys had a wonderful time!!! You're making the YC sound more and more appealing, lol.

Miss: So glad you have another trip planned, and it makes no difference about the bounceback! Are you planning YC/BC again?I am getting super excited about the Beach Club. I can totally understand your teary moment over Sarah. I still remember her sitting there in the lobby and we just instantly said "Jen?" "Sarah" at the same time. Such a warm and sweet lady.
Iheartthemouse: so glad you too had an amazing trip! And you know I am going to see how much more CL will cost us, your glowing report might just push me over the edge!
Dznycrzy: Have you decided to stay with the Poly??
Pas: what resort are you thinking of??
Sorry to jump in here like this, but I just booked BWI for Spring Break. Looking forward to being able to walk right over for Flower and Garden and DHS and dining in the WS and...
I feel like this booking was inspired by Sarah. I was sort of waiting for the right mood to strike to book our next trip and I realized that Sarah would probably tell me to stop being silly and waiting around and book! So instead of waiting for the right mood, I went ahead and booked and now I'm really in the mood

Hello my friends! Enjoying one of my days off - making a nice meal for the family ( a stuffed pork loin). I was online googling videos of how to butterfly / roll cut a pork loin to stuff. I thought I had it down and went to try mine- but sad to say I pretty much butchered it! It's much more "holey" than I wanted and I am hoping I can salvage it, lol -- I am waiting for my stuffing to cool so I can stuff itwe shall see!
This is one of the things I'll miss if I move to full time / I love the chance to make nicer meals for the family a few times a week
Janet: thanks for your perfect words the other day! You reminded me of the good that could come from this new opportunity, and I am holding your words close to heart as I await news! You and Pas are right - the waiting is the torture!
I pray things turn out for my and my families best interest
You all will be one of the first to know when I hear something!
I am having fun researching DL -- as I mentioned, I haven't been since 1990, and there is so much new to see! Carsland, California adventure, they are both new to meI will love to go with my Disney loving DS16 and his BFF, I think it would be great! I am having a hard time deciding where to stay however - heart is pulling me to either Grand Californian or Disneyland hotel / I am an on site deluxe, club level loving gal! Budget mind is saying take a look offsite/ it's not as imperative to the experience at DL to be on site -- I am looking at the best western park place? It includes a nice breakfast-- I am a hotel snob though and want somewhere nice with a good pool for the kids and a breakfast would be a plus too.... It's hard though when you've never been and are not familiar with the hotels! Hope it works out, I would love a week trip there next yr!
Well, time to go stuff and roll the roast! Wish me luck
Ok...for now, "the deed is done"!The GF has been booked, and sis knows. She's happy with it. (dznycrzy11, , she loves it like me, but hates the cost of it!)
Stay tuned for further updates..(hopefully, only to make ADRs!)
Hi everyone!
I just realized something today. I have become a bit of a vacation snob!
We are trying to plan our summer vacation as DH has to put in his vacation time. Normally we go camping, cottages etc. I just cannot get excited about the cottages that I am seeing to rent! Too dingy, I would have to cook, other people's beds, ugh. What has happened to me??
Disney has ruined me. Really.![]()
Morning' Peeps

Dani: you know I like your AOA/Poly split - hopefully some of our dates can cross with you and Jeanette
KOOK - congrats on booking spring break! BWI is perfect for F&W. Happy you are back in the planning groove.
Jeanette: no luck on my specshave the old ones with.me . DH is going to call to see if the frames are still stocked and order me a new set ....at least it's not a car, right?

Candace!! Hooray!!it's a whole new ball game now! And I am not far behind you my friend!
Iheartthemouse: DH doesn't think now is the right time for CL, and I kind of agree....I guess.If it was possible we would do both dining and CL, but just not in the books night now. That's ok....
I have changed about vacations though. I have a hard time now....but I am sure we will find something the makes us all happy to do in the summer. DH also wants to do a road trip to Boston, so that is a possibility too.
Hope everyone has a good day, DD8 is feeling sick now. Think I will have her home for the day.![]()
I know how you feel about the vacation thinking. As much as people complain about Disney's prices, I think that the experience gives us the most bang for our buck. DH has been pushing hard for some other non Disney vacation....namely Hawaii or Germany....or Greece
Well, I started pricing things out and researching and he saw that we could have a week and a half at the Grand Flo for just the cost of airfare!!!
Of course, I'm sure it could be done cheaper depending on travel times, but we really feel like we get the full experience at Disney. We kind of agreed that Disney it will be until we really feel like we need to go somewhere else. We will be looking into Atlantis though....the kids got really stoked about that option!![]()
Oh yes, I can understand the cost part!!! It sounds like a great plan to me since you both love the resort!!![]()
Believe it or not, traveling within Canada including airfare is outrageous too. BTW Candace....are you at work already?? Or rushing around trying to get ready? Just curious..![]()

Oh, believe me, we do!!! I get the best "ahhhh" feeling when I walk into that lobby to check in..I love knowing some of the CMs, who give us such special attention.
Don't get me wrong; the WL is special too, but since we have been introduced to the GF, the Wilderness has taken second place.
So, I locked DD and I out of the house when taking the boys to the bus stop today. It's 37 and raining here.No spare key because I usually just use the keypad on the garage if that happens. Not today. Battery must be dead or something.
Poor DH had to come home from work to rescue us.
Oh well, we are back in and warm now so all is good.
[/B]
SO happy you booked....no WL
Just kidding....walk to F&G will be great!!!
Waiting for Janet to land
I'll be baaackkkkkk![]()
Of course you can stay!!! Lots of GRAND love hereDoes this mean I'm going to get kicked off the thread because we decided for sure ?Can I still come and visit?
There is no kicking off here! One big family!![]()
Fine; now we're set, right? Not so fast..I decide, without consulting her, that I really want to go back to the GF. It's my real happy place!
(I move us there and don't tell her)
Wait; still not done....the date of the trip now has to be changed! So, now, I am currently trying to decide what to do...put us back at WL (which is where she thinks we are) or keep us at the GF.
Stay tuned...it'll change again, I bet..![]()
Resort Changers understand. Good luck as you work on your changes!![]()
I had a little moment walking through the BC on our last day. The hubs apologized for taking me on the route that went by where we first met Sarah. Was very sweet of him to say sorry, but it was nice to remember her calling out to us from her balcony -- even if I'm sure I looked like a crazy, blubbering mess to anyone who happened to walk by on Sunday morning.

Nice!!! Sounds like we may have a mega RC meet in August- Milkshakes. Boy did we do milkshakes. Sarah was there with us in spirit many, many times. We had milkshakes at the Plaza, Sci Fi, and Beaches & Cream. We also had Dole Whip floats, Rootbeer floats at Fountainview, and too many smoothies too count.
As of now, my BB is YC CL 8/4-8/12. I also upgraded to APs.We'll see what the next year of Disney brings. Let the RCing begin!

Pas: what resort are you thinking of??
Double Digit Dancing!!!!!!!!
Awwww, hope she's feeling better soon..I much prefer when everyone is sick at once...the kiddos got me sick as well...ughHope everyone has a good day, DD8 is feeling sick now. Think I will have her home for the day.![]()
I have no clue...that's why DH keeps telling me to budget(pas how do you do it????) The biggest thing for us is airfare too. I can get such amazing prices for Orlando, but not so good to anywhere else I want to go.
Janet has landed!!! I'm waiting for her in the lobby. Next stop AK. After the park closes we are hitting DTD!

WDWKOOK said:Janet is trying to decide where to eat at AK (of course I had to ask her about her first meal!) Will it be FTB or a meal with a cocktail to toast Sarah at Y&Y or maybe a meal with a little character at TH? (they have cocktails, too) She is off to POR now! I'm getting hungry so off to make some spring break ADRs I go
