Is it true that we are now on AKL LITE Six??!?! Yes, bah-LEE DAT!

[Pinkocto]

I can be a little obsessive so I was checking the AP discount prices for the dates a lot so I had an idea what the different pricing was on the resorts. One morning I checked the AP pricing and I noticed the BWI CL price was $500 less than it had been the day before for the same room!!!!! I called my TA ( on a Sat. she rocks) and she got me the price!!! Later on that day it was back to the $500 more!!! I was very excited!!!

Thanks for the nice words about my sister. We live in different states and it's been tough for her so my wonderful DH said we could treat her to a trip. She is very excited. She just texted me that she has her clothes out already!!

Wow, that is a fantastic deal! I'll be getting APs this year for the first time and hopefully will be able to get in a few long weekends if good room deals come out.

SO - back to the dr. got ANOTHER MRI done today, labs, x-rays, ekg - you name it - they did it......... so, on Wed. I go in for cervical disc surgery - they will go through the front left side of my neck and remove some bone and seperate all the "stuff" in there in order to get to the disc, then they will remove the c5 disc, put in 2 metal rods, the bone they removed from me, as well as cadaver bone, then screw in a metal plate to hold it all in place - I will be in a brace for at least 6 weeks - then, I will have another proceedure on my shoulder and then back to physical therapy - so, this should be a really fun holiday season!!!! Seriously though, I'm nervous - I don't like the idea of surgery and have honestly put it off too long - but, it's time to get this fixed - gotta be able to hold my new grandbabies!!!! So, I'll be in the hospital for a couple of days then back home - i'll admit I'm scared, but, I know, at least I hope it works and that I'm back to my old self again soon!!!

I'm so glad you're getting it taken care of. It's normal to be nervous. Just be patient with yourself and let the hubby do everything around the house

Thank You all so much for your support and friendship - it means a lot to me!!! (and I expect my hospital room to be flooded with flowers) LOL - I'm kidding, but I did tell DH he better be prepared to shower me with TONS of sweetness for a few months!!!! LOL -- So, obviously, I won't be around for awhile - I will try to check-in as soon as I can - but, I'll text Brandi with an update and she can post for all of you!!! Thanks again - I appreciate that all of you are so kind and supportive - it really really does help and means the world to me!!!!

I was looking at our confirmation today and see that we have a lock off 2BR villa. How different is that to a dedicated 2BR villa?

I think it is a 1bedroom and a studio together to make a 2bedroom.

Wendy - good luck with the surgery - we'll be sending lots of good thoughts your way! Let me know if I can do anything.

Wendy, good luck with the surgery. I hope it helps. I know it is no fun being down during the holiday season, but it is for the best.

for Speedy recovery and Smooth Sailing

I have been looking at Viking River Cruises and the China tour sounds amazing Something on our bucket list.

Bob and I have been dreaming of a Viking River Cruise for a few years. Not so sure it will happen now, but I agree with you, Brandi. They look terrific. Our location was the European rivers, not China, but they certainly look like a good company with well-planned routes and fine accommodations!

 

[PNO4TE]

Sorry for the delay in answering - we were in 8325 (and we don't need accessible accommodations). Truly bizarre setup - oh, and the jacuzzi tub was practically in the bedroom - no door!

Nope, not our original room. We were in The Paddocks at first. The scary thing to me is that Disney obviously thinks those rooms are accessible!

 

[PNO4TE]

Wendy... Lots of luck with your surgery. I am glad you are going to have it done since it promises to bring you relief. Good thoughts are winging their way southwest!!

 

[PNO4TE]

Good morning, Jamborinis and Kidanites!

It is raining here. Again. blech...

I have been reading reviews, watching sales and planning, but never been able to commit, but We are booked right now thru the fall of 2013, so if I get to do one it will be in 2014.... Man I am a planner...
