Well guys... I guess we are jumping ship.
We booked last Jan. 07, 2 rooms. My parents' health isn't good enough at this point, we kept hoping they would get better but they aren't, and we were doing multi-generation.
WE took my parents and 4 of our 6 children on Disney to Mexico in 05 and we all loved it. So we booked way out. My dad has Parkinsons and his health is such that he doesn't want to be gone for a week. My DS who just turned 18 had wanted to do Alaska this summer as a graduation present and he just finished his Eagle Scout project for Boy Scouts.
This summer will be our last summer vacation with DS18, as he will be leaving next year to serve a mission for 2 years. He wanted to do Alaska, and Disney doesn't go there, and my parents had me cancel theirs. DS 15 is very sad and so am I. So I checked Alaska, and I got a Veranda for 4 of us, and airfare included to Alaska, for $1800. less than my Cat.8 to Mexico....
WEll, I struggled for Days on that one, WE are Disney fanatics, we have DL Annual passes. But bottom line almost $2000. was just too hard to pass up. We could even get a mini suite with airfare, for $1200. less, so in the end, we went for the better budget.
WE have never done Princess, I know it won't be Disney, but Alaska is beautiful. We have done Alaska twice before on Celebrity, and LOVED it.
I don't Love mexico, but I love Disney, so we were going to love it.
So I just thought I should tell all of you, have a wonderful trip. I wish so much I was going with you, if money was no object, we would just do both but our budget won't allow that.
I will miss you...Please have fun.. I may even ask someone to get me a Captain Mickey PVC toy for my grandchildren.
Now, I am over on cruise critic, so I can learn about Princess. WE don't know anything about Princess.... but we will learn..
Take care.
