Good morning from sunny Key largo. This may or may not be a diving trip, depends on if I feel up to it.

So, saw the doctor and back on antibiotics. Only this time I have steroids:cool1: to go with them. Don't get excited, I was given the talk that these are sugar based steriods and not the ones that help performance. I then asked for the other ones instead and he just laughed.:mad: If it's not gone in 10 days, I'll need to go see an ear, throat specialist. Wish me luck.

Good luck. It isn't any fun having a Nemi that is not at his fighting best.
 

Yes. Barry should be telling people what to do (after he checks with Bambi)
:rotfl2::lmao::rotfl:

It's funny because it's true!:thumbsup2

Que voulez-vous traduire?

See, that's why everyone picks on Canada.
::yes::

Due to the adoption we had to increase our life insurance coverage. Now it's a race to see who knocks the other one off first :lmao: :scared1:
Just make sure you bump the wife's up a little higher than your own. :thumbsup2

I hope they do the trick for you.

Even shorter list

Was this a list of good things or bad things? :confused3
:crazy2: :faint:

As they said on South Park... Blame Canada.

Life Lesson for DISDads #143:

Don;t let the DW "poke around" My Disney Experience where FastPass+ is concerned.

Let's just say I was on the phone with the Disney help Desk last night. I learned a few things about MDE along the way, too.

1. The wife made FP+ choices but paid no attention to the fact our kids were not included! So all of the FP were for 2 instead of 4!
2. I was able to have my wife "invite" the kids to be part of the family under her account (i was already managing them under my account)
3. Whomever makes tje FP+ sections, has to cancel or modify themselves. (i.e., my wife booked on our behalf. Even though I have her as family and vice versa, I can't just change on her behalf if she made the original FP+ selection. It makes sense but isn't really explained anywhere that I could see.)
4. As logical as it seems after going through this, it's going to cause major headaches for Disney. I will say this, the CM that helped me was very pleasant and patient. But simply make sure that you set the kids up under both parents and make sure you keep track of which parent made the FP+ selection so it will be easier to modify.
Sounds like a huge pain in the Beverly. Hopefully this is one of their lessons to be learned and this will either be corrected or explained better. :confused3
 
Have any Dads been to the world in April??? I am trying to get a real feel for how bad it is.I know it is super crowded because of spring breaks but is it and worse then summer time? I have been there in June ,July Aug and late Aug so I have a feel for crowds but never been there for April. Any input?
 
Next question is If I am thinking of a Nov trip is MNSSHP worth changing dates for? I want to go from say the 4th -8th but MNSSHP ends on the 1st so I either miss it or change the dates.I can get dvc for the dates I want,but if I change dates to see MNSSHP I have to pay for non dvc room. Is it worth the effort?

I went years ago, late April '03. Arrived the day after Easter, and crowds were non-existant? No idea why that was, for all intents and purposes, it should have been slammed. I know at the end of that trip, MK was closing early for Grad Nites
 
‘Morning all…
I see we’re having another boarder skirmish.
At least we all seem to agree that the best solution is to eradicate Beiber.
I can sign a treaty stipulating that point.



Good morning from sunny Key largo. This may or may not be a diving trip, depends on if I feel up to it.

Decisions, decisions…
Life’s tough ain’t it?


Good Morning Gentlemen

Feeling Red today I see…


eleventy billion.

Sounds pretty close to me.


Um, shouldn't that be "down" to it?

:lmao:

We’ve done April, but it was a loooong time ago.
The crowd then was similar to what we normally encountered in mid-June


(just not as hot).

The life of CJ. I'm not working today either, but I have to sit at my desk a few hours in case work needs to be done.

Actually, it is better than you think. We won't go during Easter weeks (on DVC schedule), but the ones before it aren't bad, other than the extra dvc points. We are going 2014 first week in April.

And, I sent you a trade request on MFL.

Next question is If I am thinking of a Nov trip is MNSSHP worth changing dates for?

Is it worth the effort?

Yes. We do a MNSSHP every year. We close a park the day before, sleep in late, don't go to a park that day, and then go to MNSSHP at 4:00 PM. The decorations and extras are worth it.

Yes we have. It was very busy, but we were there during Spring break.

Yes it is worth it. Boo To You Parade is the Best, and Hollo-Wishes is also the Best. Seeing all the people in costume is fun too.
 
Grace Park
Rachel McAdams
Shania Twain
Elisha Cuthbert
Neve Campbell
Evangeline Lilly
Anna Silk
Serinda Swan
Trish Stratus

That's a short list.

Pictures, or it didn't happen.

I asked what the story was b\c the guy's name is Mike.He said his manager put it there once he had his son b\c ..."Once you have a kid, you lose your original identity."

True. Although, it seems to happen to dw more than me. I'm not sure if knowing my name is a good or bad thing.

Life Lesson for DISDads #143:

Don;t let the DW "poke around" My Disney Experience where FastPass+ is concerned..

Yet another reason i'm not thrilled with all this. I had to set up DW's account and link it, so no worries there. However, my dds are only 11&9. Does my 9 year old need a Disney account? I have not set up email accounts for either - dad's attempt to keep them young. I have them linked by names, but they don't have own accounts. FP+ seems like a lot if work thus far.

I think the crowds coincide with spring break. If Easter is later that shouldn't effect the crowd level too much. Which week were you thinking in April?

As far as MNSSHP- it is the best party. Way better than MVMCP. As Randall said the parade and fireworks are what you are paying for... Worth it right there.
 
Has anyone eaten at Olivia's at OKW? What did you eat? How was it? We wanted to eat there in Jan but didn't make it. Thinking of eating dinner there in Nov.

We are going later in April week after Easter. As of now all value resorts are full so it has me scared.

iT's good. New York Strip and a mahi mahi dish were both good, because I have to sample a bit of what everyone orders. Also, reasonably priced for dinner and we had great service. The prime rib at SSR Turf Club further down river is excellent as well.

If it is in one of those two weeks on DVC calendar, then it will be super crowded. And, not just at DVC resorts.

I have but cant remember what I had, it was a few yrs ago when we stayed there. It is ok to good but not great. They had Yeungling ! so it could not have been to bad.
