Are you going to do this one again?

I plan to but not this year.

Love the descriptor of your avatar! That had nothing to do with my figure skater question this fall, did it? Lol!

No, I was dispelling rumors that it was Tinkerbell related.

Are you doing the W&D again in 2011?

 

[Mrs D]

It's looking like we may be taking a short June trip for SWW.

I'm hoping for the 2012 Princess unless someone has a free airline ticket and can put me up for either the Princess or W&D this year.

I didn't think so, but now I'm not so sure....I could probably be talked into it.
I'm in the lottery for the NYC Full, so I'll probably wait to see what happens with that one!

I really want to do this race but I'm not certain whether to have my hubby bring the kids (DD10 and DD8) to the after party or whether I should arrange some type of childcare?

How did it go to have your young children at the finish line so late that night? To further complicate things, they really want to run the 5k that morning with me.

I have a college sophomore. He was at the finish line party with a friend and had a blast. I would not have wanted him there at that age. It was crowded the lines were really long. And I think he would have been bored at that age. There was just not much to do except eat, drink and listen to music.

Having said that, there are plans to change things for this year. So you might want to wait and see what's going to be open. It will make for a REALLY long day for them. Do they get cranky when they are tired?

They usually outlast us when at Disney but crankiness is a possibility if the day starts too early. I'm going to tell them that they can run the Mickey Mile instead of the 5k so that we can save a bit of money and start the day a bit later. Perhaps I'll get lucky and a relative will want to come along to babysit!
