eeewwwhhh 1 suitcase.....no carry on or toiletry???
What cities does the Spirit of America go to??
DC?
PITTBURG??
VIRGINIA???
I wouldlove to do the CHINA ABD...
Maybe one day we willhave enough points
... I am wondering if I am "freaking out"

over nothing but on my 9 day ABD "Spirit of Americal" trip, there will be opportunities to do some bike riding (around Capitol Hill to swimming at the Great Wolfe Lodge, etc... But, the only place to do laundry is at the 3rd of three hotel stops; the hotel in Williamsburg Virginia (the other 2 stops are in Philadelphia & Wash D.C.).
and Adventures by DIsney has a policy of allowing each guest 1 checked bag, one carry on and one personal item. which I can understand since they are a motor coached tour company. So, I am going to attempt to cram 12 shirts , 2 pair of shorts and a pair of khaki pants, socks, I-pod speakers (to listen to my Disney music while out and about and or in the hotel room

), umbrella, emergency & medicine kit, toilteries, etc all in O-N_E Flippin' 28 inch suitcase!
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

.
I am soooooooooooooo used to a 28 inch suitcase and a 26 inch suitcase (the 26 inch suitcase WAS to be used to carry my dirty laundry). So - in the spirit of chillin out over this, I have decided to bring a carry on (duffle bag) & use it to house my dirty laundry since I really wanna spend time in a vacation mode and not mess with doing laundry; esp soooooooo late into the vacation.
Agree? Disagree? need opinions please on this or should I just chill out and do some laundry when we all roll into The Great Wolfe Lodge (williamsburg, Va which is 48 hours prior to my departure back into Texas).
I am finishing up doing some last minute shoppping for this trip and figure I will zipper up my suitcase in 10 days

. I know, I am such the fanatic planner but I realize it is sooooooooo helpful to go this route so you don't have to fiddle with last minute things and you can enstead focus in on having one wonderful time on yer vacation

.
oh and about China, yes, I have read some fellow DISsers trip reports on it and yes, it sounds wonderful

.
If ya want, ya can read along on my ABD pre-trippy trip report - it's listed below.
p.s. I am 2nd seating dining on this cruise.
