"Oh my, my- I am venting! Karen look what you started "

I do seem to have that effect on you huh? lol

I just want a quiet wing to come back to and a pool that is not pee-peed to death or overchlorinated because of all the pee-pee. I want to sleep in the morning and not hear wee ones all excited to see Mickey 'cause I'm going to see him later in the day, stay out as late as I want, and I am not going to wake the wee ones up when I get in at 2AM so why do they get to wake me at 6AM!

I honest to goodness love love love kids and really want them to enjoy themselves, but I want to enjoy too! There is room for all of us at Dis if they would just be a bit more creative in how they do it.

We are so on the fence right now about whether we will be going again this year or going to someplace a bit more adult......say the Islands or Key West but I do so love Disney!

Bushy is inviting everyone on Tammy's Key West vacation- hop on board BTW- Thanks for the invite Bush

Just do what DH and I do- Mexico for him and Disney for me

Now that you mention the kiddies waking you up in the morning- I remember one year DH and I were stayed at the ASMo. One morning we were woken up by the sound of this father SCREAMING at his kids in the next room!!! I did not hear the kids, but dad's yelling sure woke me up!

I do get a little PO'd when some people cannot be considerate of others in the morning- never fails, the kids are always running down the hall screaming etc. I know it must be hard to keep them quiet, but I would certainly try with a little talk about how others might not be up yet before we left the room

I think someone here said this before.......Now I think about it, I am not sure if it is the kids that bother me so much- IT'S THE PARENTS!

Some of them feel their kids are "entitled" to do whatever they want w/o giving any thought to others. Nice lesson there, huh?

Rudeness- it has become an epidemic.

I would love to know if Disney has ever considered an adults only hotel? I bet they would get A LOT of takers!!!

I bet they would too. And not just the small demographic of Child-Free folks. Honeymooners, retired folks, college kids, etc. There are a lot of different demographics that would appriciate a quiet, child free resort.

Though I did have an opportunity to partake in the tequilla bar in Epcot recently. I had the blood orange margarita, which was essentially pure tequilla. Had to drink it quick to kill the taste

I loved the Tequila bar. Learned to appriciate (sp?) Don Julio tequila. Next time we go we are planning 1/2 a day there.

Have you ever stayed at the Dolpin? Seriously, those rooms are sooo quiet. With the water & Boardwalk there I figured we would have lots of noise, but close the slider & the world outside is gone. And one morning we got up & out and were shocked to bump into a family of 4 or 5 headed down the hallway. Never heard them until we opened the door to our room. Take it from someone w/occassional bouts of insomnia & problems sleeping in new/different places - the Dolpin is fantastic in terms of how quiet the rooms are.

Awesome!! Is there a bar in/near the pool?

uh oh...with all this talk where are the crazy parents coming in to tell us we're wrong and horrible? Isn't this the point when they usually start attacking us?

Yup - this makes it just about Troll Time. Someone will pop up & tell us how narrow minded, mean, selfish. mis-guided, irresponsible, reprehensible, sad, deprived, uncaring, and generally evil we all are. Oh & don't forget how hollow & pathetic our lives are. Did I get it all?

So we are officially in NC now
The "Greek Chorus" as I've dubbed the cats sang a beautiful Greek Tragedy to me on the way down here. Forget waterboarding... toss those terrorist into a car w/3 PO'd and loud cats for a few hours. The will confess to anything!
Tomorrow we close on the new house, which gives me the afternoon to clean befor the movers arrive on Saturday. I'm sooo ready for this to all be finished. I want to just be settled again.

Hope all is well & for the US folks have a great holiday weekend!

Yay for being in NC!!

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. You have my cell.

Uh oh. Let's put the college kids with the little ones. They tend to be loud.

But honestly- I am sure there are A LOT of parents out there who feel the same way we do. The parents who are trying to raise their kids with manners- b/c those parents have manners themselves and do not feel the need for self entitlement. Me, me, me! I would say they are probably in the minority- but they are out there LOL

Yay- you are officially North Caroliners (is that what you call them?) But- always stay true to your Boston teams! That is one thing I would never be able to change no matter where I go in life- I bleed orange and black for the Flyers and that could never change!

OMG- the names you have for your kitties make me PMSL Cheryl!

Enjoy your new "home"! Give a real life "hi" to Kat!!!

Thanks mskayjay.

Disney HAS "considered" and dismissed Adult Only from what I am told. I make a point of mentioning it everytime I make a reservation at a resort or talk to someone a bit higher up the food chain at Dis and get the same response....not going to happen. Fine, then you can keep listening to me complain, move my room (sometimes to concierge!), and adjusting my bill. Not playing with you folks while I am on vaca....make it good for everyone or I am going to let you know! I spend a LOT of money there and can take it elsewhere.


and glad you like my pee peed pools poppinsme! wow that is a lot of p in that sentence! lol

Yes, it's true Maddi, I'm now a confined radical. Then again, the bodage aspect is kinda fun.

What's everyone doing for the weekend?
