November 2009 – US/IOA, RPR & Seaworld – WE'RE BACK!

So, I’m on hold with RPR Reservations.

Why? you ask…

Greed, plain and simple :lmao:

We’re leaving on Monday and I’ve booked the room at the stay 7, pay 4 (length of stay) discount. But… I wanted more….

I didn’t think there was any larger discount, but when I called, the lovely lady said that she could reduce my overall cost by $80. The length of stay discount has increased! :cool1:

So, I’m holding, waiting for the adjustment.

We’re so stinking excited about this trip, it’s really pathetic. Truly, we work like dogs and really need to get away.

I’m fully immersed in my normal “week before we leave” freak out. I want everything to be right and this is what I get….

1. Both kids sick, coughing, nasty cold (no FEVER, NO SWINE FLU!!!)
2. DD falls off a treadmill at a friend’s house (not making this up). Bruised, bloodied, cut.. BUT nothing broken. (I take what I can get)
3. I wear glasses, and I’ve scratched a lens. So, I send out for a new one… which may not be ready in time…

:scared1:

What I really need is to be bundled into a rug and shipped to Orlando….. :rotfl:

And speaking of transportation, here is how we’re getting to and from the airports:

We’re going to take our own car and park it at JFK. Totally stinks but it’s the cheapest option. I priced a car service which would be $230 each way. Waaaaayyy too much $$ for us. :eek:

We’re using a car service from MCO to RPR. My friend used them in July and had a really good experience and I’ve heard good things about them on the boards. (Murray Hill Transportation, $95 RT). :cool2:

We won’t have a car while were in Orlando which is fine by me. I’ll already be where I want to be!

We’re going to SeaWorld as well and we’ll probably take a taxi since we want to get there at park opening for the dolphin feeding… The shuttle leaves too late I think.. If we do a second SeaWorld day, we’ll do the shuttle then.

Totally excited!!!!!
Best, E :goodvibes
 
i always tell homies to check their hotel prices up to the time before they arrive.

it is fantastic you called and found the rate dropped for you!
how delightful.


i'm eagerly reading your thread.
i know you will have a great time on your vacation.

i have used murray hill twice and will tell you they are very honest people.
john and marie are great peeps!


check with the hotel on the seaworld shuttle schedule.
times have changed in the past.

if you do a taxi going over, book the free shuttle for the return.
save money.....



i think you all should just sit on the couch for the rest of the week so no one gets hurt between now and next monday.....:rolleyes1

Hi Mac!

Thanks for the great advice, I never thought of the shuttle for the return only!

Murray Hill does sound great, looking forward to it...

I'm thinking of tying the family to the couch for the weekend. My DS (12) just fell headfirst down the wood steps onto the slate landing. Bruised, but nothing broken.... AAAAACCCCKKKK!!!

Thinking of getting on plane now so as to avoid further injury! :laughing:

Best, E
