First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise Use Multiquote, It Saves Nine

[chirurgeon]

I need help. I am over planning again. I will truly only have a total of 4 days to do things in the parks before and after the cruise. In my head, I am doing enough to fill my usual 10 day trip that doesn't include say a cruise or Mousefest. WHY DO I DO THIS TO MYSELF? Disney will still be there next April. Talk me down someone. I need to pick and choose. HEELLLPPPP.

I know the countdown takes place daily but for some reason today gave me little excited butterflies! I'm so excited!!! Maybe it had something to do with the extra camcorder battery that I bought yesterday for for my new camcorder to take on the cruise? I want to start packing now!

Ok, the thought of video recording scares me. I have some video of my cruise in college I know my friends would like me to lose.

Morning!



Ethan had a great day potty training yesterday. YAY!

Good morning everyone!

Has anyone watched that new ABC show, Castle? It's on after Dancing with the Stars. I really like Nathan Fillion anyway, but it's VERY good. Kinda reminds me of Remington Steele and some of those good old shows where the stories weren't predictable and the chemistry between the characters was good.

'morning!

I saw the first episode of that show- thought it was cute. I've tivod the others but haven't watched them yet.

There's no need to overplan. Just pick out your favorites for this trip and stick to them. Part of a fantastic Disney vacation is relaxing as well and just taking it in. Having free time is just as important as planned time. A good mix is usually a winning formula.


Did that help?

Can't help. I only am doing one day in the parks and in my mind I want to go to all of the parks. Sometimes I wish we would just get APs so we would do half days in the parks.

I'm planning on getting APs this trip, but then I feel like, Hey I can be in the parks for free I should go every day and get my moneys worth. Its a slippery slope!

 

[georgemoe]

Mushrooms...ew...

I agree. Throat closing. Can't breathe. GASPING for air. And they taste yucky too.

I agree, Blech!

DW would love to sit with all of you at the No Mushroom Table.

How about escargot?

That's the talk Jeff! Garlic and butter'em up! Love them little critters.

I think that is the reason DH is against them. He knows I will be planning trips to Orlando every 2 months.

Just for you - a quote from Pepe - King Prawn...

Optimists see the glass half full.
Pessismists see the glass half empty.
I say, if it ain't a Mojito - I ain't drinking it anyway okay!

Jen - great on the potty training progress...I would have been sooo lost without my Mom for that step.

Mushrooms....EEEEWWWWWW!

Did I miss anything?

ETA - I don't get the teeth ad - I get a scrapbooking ad....

Has anyone seen this BigDog thing they're showing on FoxNews? I think this may be the creepiest thing I have ever seen in my life. At one point it stumbles on ice (it looks like ice anyway) and I felt bad for it. Creepy I tell ya. Just creepy.

No kidding your right that is creepy.
The buzzing sound would be enough to drive me around the bend.
They could have made the thing look a little better.
The load capacity is great though.
As for the ice, well I am not much better on the ice myself.

Did you all read the recent blog about Trails End? Makes me kinda nervous.

I read the item John posted from the DU agent. Looks like they are now ravioli sized omelettes.

This is going to be our first time atempting to do half a day at
one park, and half a day at another park.
Should be interesting.
However we usually go in Dec. and I think it is enough to just
do one park a day at that time of year.
This will be our first trip in May.

See you guy's later.
I am off to the gym now.

I bow before your ability to quote Muppet gospel.

Another wise woman.

I think this is what the dining plan has done to many restaurants in Disney. I really dislike the dining plan and how it has slowly made all the food the same around the parks.

I don't think this is only happening at Disney. I notice a lot of things are much smaller than they used to be. I love ChickFilA salads and they have way less chicken on them than they did 2 years ago. I have been trying to stick with buffets at WDW, but that doesn't always help. We went to Beirgarten in November and honestly I can't stop thinking about it. It was so good.

Did you all read the recent blog about Trails End? Makes me kinda nervous.

I did. I wonder what the food will be like at lunch. The food at WDW restaurants has been declining for over a year now. Higher prices, noticably smaller portions, taste and quality not what it was in the past, the romoving of entrees and scaling back on the menus. I could go on and on. Unfortunately I think it is going to get worse before it gets better. I was reading the dining boards last night and it was mentioned that the chicken served at the Tangerine Cafe in Morocco was changed from chicken breast to a chicken breast cutlet which is processed. Yuck! This is not noted on the menu which just says chicken platter. I hope things like this are not going to be implemented property wide because I do not want to eat pre packaged, processed or frozen food on my WDW trips. And have to pay a premium for the privledge of doing so.

Yay for the Travel Channel. I wish I would have taped that.
