Hope everyone had a Happy and Safe 4th of July!

Mom was moved into a regular room today. She said the doctor told her 1 or 2 more weeks before she comes home. She is still quite weak but getting a little stronger each day!

I am treating my sister and her kids because I prefer to go without DBIL!

Hi Everyone!!!!

Happy 4th!!!!


I hope everyone had a great weekend!!!

I'm a little sad to hear so many "hubbies" (dm220 excluded) don't like going to the world!!!! My DH LOVES it as much as I do, in fact this Sept. trip was solely his idea!!! We were just there in Jan./Feb. and we are starting to plan for next Feb. AND!!!! he just told me last night to go ahead and extend the trip for 2 more nights!!!!! YEP, I'm gonna get 2 full weeks out of him yet!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, would you guys add onto the front or back of the trip??? AND I'm thinking about the Poly for 2 nights???? I know, I know, it's blasphemy, but, I've always wanted to stay there, so what do you think??? I"m seriously leaning towards the back end, I'm afraid that with Labor Day the weekend will be really crowded. ( We arrive on Sunday the 3rd as it is now). I think days on the end would be better.

I also just made him a resv. for the Magnolia course, a birthday gift for him ~ he's VERY happy about that!!!! which could explain the "extension" onto the trip Well, I hope everyone enjoyed the fireworks and has a great week!!

I'm happy to hear the good news! Last summer my Mom was very ill, and her move into a regular room was a huge accomplishment. She had a bout with the same thing last week, adn is very weak but we caught it in time, so she was able to avoid going to the hospital this time. Thank goodness that my sis is a resp therapist, and can manage to stay on top of her illness. The Dr will work with her because she is amazing!

I would add on to the end of the trip!

Thanks everyone for your good wishes! Mom was a little fiesty today so I hope that means she is on her way!

Wendypooh, I would add the days on to the end and do it at the Poly. It is nice and peaceful there even with crowds!

Nancyg56, hope your Mom is feeling better!

 

[Nancyg56]

Nancyg56, hope your Mom is feeling better!

Thank you. She has emphysema, and it is progressive. Last year she was very ill, but bounced back. This past week has been horrible for people with breathing issues, and she is no exception, but so far we have been able to keep her out of the hospital. Today we go to the Dr, and will see what he says. A little prayer would be welcome.

This may be a stupid question, but I'm not too proud to ask

Do the AKL busses go only to and from the parks? Do they go to the other resorts?

TIA

[tinknme]

The buses only go to the parks, water parks, & dtd. To get to another resort you need to get on a bus to any park & then take a bus to a resort. You can also ride the monorail from MK to get to the Contemporary, Poly, & GF.

Do the AKL busses go only to and from the parks? Do they go to the other resorts?

TIA

 

[mlwear]

Thanks, Tinknme. That's what I figured, but good to know for sure.

[tinknme]

Thanks, Tinknme. That's what I figured, but good to know for sure.
