Morning all...
Haven't seen that one is awhile, but i enjoyed the Emperor's New Groove. That one never really did manifest itself at the Disney parks, did it? I have yet to do any cruise. They do sound fun, but it's hard to get past WDW. When I already enjoy my current vacation spot so much, it's difficult to consider going elsewhere. Even when I consider a cruise, I think abut adding days at WDW.
Yzma and Kronk are hard to beat for comedic Villainy.
As one who makes such excellent use of DVC, I can see your point very clearly.
DCL outings aren't a good use of DVC points either, to be sure. Worse yet cruises can be addictive for the right personality and addictions are expensive (especially that one).
Forgot you had a cruise coming up. Completely agree on the spoiled rotten, they do do that don;t they. Some of our first cruises were when they did land / sea packages with 3 days parks and 4 on the ship which helped us get to 9. We would do parks first and then DW would get some down time on the ships to end vacation when the kids were younger.
We did one of Disney's land/sea packages a long while back. Learned that we needed to cruse more often and that longer was better (my, but they are addictive). We've been able to add a couple of days at D'World onto our other DCL outings, but I don't know that I can do that this time around.
Thanks!
We are doing the 7 day Eastern trip. Everyone is pumped.
My little guy has a ton of allergies and Disney is great. I hope the cruise will be the same. We already let them know about it.
Yep, that's the trip we're taking this time. I'll post up anything interesting I learn (and probally start a TR). On the allergies, just let your servers know about everything at dinner the first night. Since that team will be looking after you the entire time, they will remember the details and go out of their way to be your advocate.
Yes and no. I have sent my resume out to two companies who asked for them, one sounded good, the other was a maybe. What I am doing is getting some medical work done. Colonoscopy, hernia repair, bunion removed and have my knee looked at to see if it needs to be replaced. Let the good times roll!
Yikes!
That a lot of potential misery, but best to get it all done at once if possible.
Sad day today, leaving tomorrow morning. We really enjoyed the stay here but the time went too quickly. Promise some pictures when I get back.
Hate you couldn't stay longer.
Looking forward to seeing some pics and hearing a story or two.
Trip to the vacation

house didn't go terribly well. It was nice seeing my folks and all as well, but Dad is losing the ability to filter what he says and let a few opinions fly that were not appreciated by SWMBO. Tension was thick to say the least. SWMBO also ended up in thee emergency room.. I though she had a blood clot in her leg but turns out she just tore a tendon or ligament. Good news there as I don't want to be a single parent and have no intention of ever trying to break in a new wife. I did get my boy's room painted. It had been eight years and the firetruck wallpaper was no longer appropriate. This should last him until he is out of the house.
Just over a month till we head to the World.
Sounds like trying times.
May all the healing (physical and emotional) go quickly.
The trip to Dis should help considerable toward that end.
Evening guys,
made itr as far as Rocky Mount NC today. The driving was pretty good except one construction delay that took about 2 hours to clear. Ironically it was pretty close to being in the same place we took 2 hours to clear an accident two years ago on this drive.
That's a pretty good haul considering the 2-hour time loss.
Stay safe on the rest of the drive.
Hope you continue to have safe travels and hope Rocky Mount has improved in the last 17 years. We had cotton research plots at the Upper Coastal Plain Research Station when I was at NCSU. About all it had nearby was a place with good fried bologna.
Ahhh, but good fried bologna will compensate for a good many ills.
Since it looks like David is off herding cats or something, let me say;
Good Morning!
Well, both jobs need doin'
And I do believe that y'all are just the guys to get them done.
