Funny thing happened just now...

[australiankaren]

DH keeps sending me reports like this one

7pm in Orlando and the traffic is ok, I4 is all clear out to Palm Beach, low of 67 and high of 88. yeah

so I reply

How about we cancel the Sydney cruise next year and do a 2 week back to back cruise from Orlando instead

and his reply

GREAT

so people, looks like we are going back in 2013 so much for paying more off the mortgage

so let the planning begin.....

God I love this man

Well you know you also have those DVC points burning a whole in your pocket!

But I bet the B2B will cost the same as a cruise out of sydney!

Strike whilst the irons hot as they say nothing like a dose of reality to be wishing you were back there

Oh Mickey Give me strength

Awesome! Wish I could persuade my DH to love Disney!

So who will you end up flying with? AirNZ again?? (kissy, Kissy... )

P.S. I can't really complain about my DH - he took me here for our big wedding anniversary celebration. http://www.smh.com.au/travel/perfect-score-australian-resort-named-worlds-best-20121017-27r2d.html

I'm just running him on the after cruise glow.......

ANZ hopefully, but will depend on $$$$$ as this trip will be a budget one....oh God now i have to keep chasing points...

panic.....fingers crossed for another expedia.ie bargain for sept 2013...

 

[5ofus]

Excellent work Karen! Your DH is sounding more and more like mine though... scary thought - two of them!

 

[Ms. Shuttergirl]

Your husband is such a sweet pushover. He obviously had the most wonderful time on this recent holiday. You did something right clearly .

Happy planning.

What do you mean by "keep chasing points". Do you mean frequent fly points? And how exactly do you chase them?

I just get them by spending a boat load of money, do you have a better idea

 

[PrincessInOz]

2014? That's a long way away...but I'm taking bets that you ARE going to Orlando despite the "save, save, save" mentality.

I'd love to know this too. I worked out that after my trip to the States next year and my trip to Fiji last month I will have enough frequent flyer points to fly economy to.... wait for it..... WELLINGTON.

Clearly I'm doing something wrong

 

[australiankaren]

so I chatted to DH, he really wants to holiday /cruise sept 2013 ......But I want to get some $$$$ back in the bank , so we agreed to discuss this again March 1st, 2013...as i told him, I have everything in place , so it would take me an hour to book everything if we green light it.

so, back to waiting i guess ...and concentrating on the feb DLR trip

 

[Ms. Shuttergirl]

That sounds very "sensible" of you

Here's to planning!

 

[alicia1506]

i think it's fabulous that your DH is ready to book another trip. clearly you enjoyed yourselves immensely on this last trip.

good work in striking while the iron was hot and he was still wrapped up in the high of a wonderful trip.

i think you're being very sensible to want to put money in the bank -- but it's awesome that if he gives you the green light to book a holiday in a few months' time, you'll be all ready to lock it in smart planning there, i say.

as it's normally me who is spending and hes the one trying to hold back the tsunami...
