Girls Only Trip (old planning thread, see link to new one in 1st post)

[jordansmomma]

Chelan is really really pretty! It's located more in central Washington, just on the very eastern edge of the Cascade Mountains.....gorgeous area!

So is Leavenworth. I want to go for a wine walk.

When someone says "drawers" I think undies. So that is hillarious.

I know what you mean! Yikes, they grow up so fast. Andrew, age 12 asked me to take him to a Chinese Rest. for lunch with friends. Well turned out to be a double date set up! His first date at age 12! He split the bill with the other kid and then asked me to pay him back because it was expensive ($23) and he didn't think he could afford it. I declined, but took the time to point out that with his earning power, he probably couldn't afford to both date and play video games.

I guess he will forget dating for now?


He wants to buy Mario Kart for the Wii so badly. I have been holding out because I don't think I need to run out and buy a $50 game at every whim, but maybe it would be okay, if I pretended it was for him, but it was really so I could play with you girls

I bought Mario Karts because I wanted, I just let the boys think its theirs.

Ok, so for whoever is keeping track...if I get to go I would deffinitely want a roomie! At HoJO I would want my own bed but don't mind sleeping on a roll a way (so three in the room would be fine). If we stay on property I would only be interested in the Grand as I have never stayed there before and I wouldn't mind sharing a bed in that situation to help with the cost. I really hope I get to go on this trip!...Darn Olympics.

Sarah

Darn Olympics! I hope you can make it!

Hi Laurie! I am January. Your pic is way cute! So glad to have you here!

Yep, it's a single bathroom with a locking door so you are TOTALLY alone in there. Nice for chimi-itis and other DL tummy issues.

It's near Rancho de Zocalo and Carnation Gardens stage area. Most the Divas know where it is, so just ask next time.

I am going to have to remember that.

Thanks!

Tbehe butt cheek shuffle!

I don't know where my hubby comes up with stuff like that....his crazy brain! Yep, same thing happened to me at WDW, and my hubby laughed his head off watching me from the resort bus do the butt cheek shuffle across the grass in front of our building on the way to our room at SSR.

When you told us that story, I just about died!

 

[DizNee Luver]

My son has this t-shirt too!!!!

Thank you for the welcome!!

 

[Stacerita]

Ok Stacie you and I have the same dirty mind cuz I thought the same thing I started crackin up when she said that!

Like I said before......great minds think alike.

Ok, so for whoever is keeping track...if I get to go I would deffinitely want a roomie! At HoJO I would want my own bed but don't mind sleeping on a roll a way (so three in the room would be fine). If we stay on property I would only be interested in the Grand as I have never stayed there before and I wouldn't mind sharing a bed in that situation to help with the cost. I really hope I get to go on this trip!...Darn Olympics.

Sarah

I will put you on the list I was keeping.

I hope so too.

The roomie thing is out of control right now. When you start cramming 5 and 6 ladies into a room, my head starts to spin.

But if people know who they are rooming with, and want to post that then I will add it to the front. So far I've seen lots of talk, but no real commitments.

Don't knock it.

Capri and Beth (and any other potential roomies)

Are we staying at Hojo's again?
I am thinking maybe we should stay closer if possible. When I had my chimi-itis it was one looooong butt cheek shuffle (Capri ) back to the room. I won't go #2 in public. Sorry if that was WAaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much info.

If that happens again next trip, Lord help me.

OKay, so far we have....

Room 1
Capri
January
Beth

Room 2
cheshiregirl
bigskyernurse

Next?

Amy and Jane......are you guys up for having a roll away guest in there? Or were you guys good with just the two of you?

In that case, I might have to steal Cheryl's scooter.

She's a lawyer, so watch yourself.

January, that's what the secret bathroom is for!

But then when you leave, everyone knows what you were doing. If you are there with a lot of stalls, it could have been anyone of you.

 

[Queenbillabong]

My son has this t-shirt too!!!!

Thank you for the welcome!!

Holy schmoly - I just noticed how many children you have I'm done in and I only have ONE (yes, I am a wuss - I admit it!)

 

[sahbushka]

I knew you were going to go there (I did too, but don't tell anyone, 'K??)



I think keeping it to one park is good. There is a variety of competitiveness and trivia knowledge among us, so keeping it short (2-3 hours) would be good. Too long and it's too much for some people (and a snap for others!)



I always take a notarized letter when I travel with Jesse. I have never been asked to see it, but I have it. Same thing with a letter from his doctor. Never been asked to see it (even though we clearly have syringes and bottles of med), but we have for if and when they do



So, you're coming then And I agree - darn Olympics!! I for one will be very glad to skip town while they are here (DH will be watching TV - and not in Beth's way, either! - for the whole time)

I hope to but I really don't know about getting time off during those Olympics due to my job. I have been asking around and no one seems to know how that is going to be handled yet. It is going to be crazy around here during that time!

And I agree abou the scavenger hunt! I can't wait to do it again! What a blast!

[daisy_77]

Holy schmoly - I just noticed how many children you have I'm done in and I only have ONE (yes, I am a wuss - I admit it!)

I was wondering the same thing!

Beth...

Dawn and Sally
I'm not sure where we are staying.

Has anyone stayed at Candy Cane Inn? What was it like? We like to have a shuttle.

 

[daisy_77]

Dawn, I have heard some good things about the Candy Cane Inn. If you go to TripAdvisor.com you can see LOTS of pics and reviews.

Thanks for the info, Miss January
