[Grandma4ever]

OH.....

Tellme about it....

DISNEY vacations are the reason i am fat.

Each cruise i gained at least 7 pounds and never recovered and our 2 week trip to Disney didnt helpmuch either.

I am tryin to loose at least 7 pounds by Oct 19 i dont know if i am goin tomake it.

MAYBE BY NEXT OCT 19

I have just given up with my weight. I just buy most of my clothes with an elastic waist. I can also sit on my suitcases to close them both before and after vacation. Lois

That sounds like as good an excuse as anything I could come up with. Mind if I use it too. Lois

 

[dizzi]

sure you can!!!

 

[Grandma4ever]

sure you can!!!

Thank you so very much. I also am workin on my post count. Don't want to get left behind!!!!

One Day Closer and Still Counting!!!! Lois

So Lois...

What makes a person do a back to back compared to just a longer cruise?

I have thought about doing back to back just casue it sounds pretty cool.

But what are the advantages verses a longer cruise liek through the panama canal or something???

I don;t know that there are any advantages except that Disney seldom has a 14 or 15 day cruise. So I can pick when I cruise. There is also the ability to get back into ther teminal and on the ship when there are only a few people around. You would not have that on a longer cruise. Easy access to the washers and dryers on the first day of the second cruise. It is really sweet if you can book the same room both weeks. Lois

Thats cool Lois....

Maybe one day.

I think our next cruise will be a non disney, cause we want to go to Hawaii and stay in the new disney resort and then take a hawaiian islands cruise,

 

[threeiscrazy]

I would have to agree but i have only used the ones that you need to suck the air out with a vaccuum.

How does this work with no vaccuum?

She lays them out on the bed and just rolls them tight and seals them.
Now I on the other hand, smash everything into my suitcase and then have to jump up and down on it to have the zipper engage. This whole 50lb limit is a major source of stress for me!

 

[dizzi]

Oh luckily we dont have to fly to the cruise.

But i have done better with my packing.

Our first disney cruise the 4 of us took, 8 suitcases and 2 carry on size.

the 2nd one i got it down to 6 and we were even gone loner than the first.

SOOOOOO maybe i can get it down to 5 this time........But that is pushin it!

Nothing wrong with that!!!

We had to buy a luggage scale after having to repack at the airport a time or two. You can find them for about 10.00 and then be fairly sure you will be under weight.

[dizzi]

haha

We usually just weih ourselves on our scale then pick up the luggage and weigh it together.

FUN FAMILY PASTIME

We do a Disney cruise every other year and a non disney the other years. We did the Pride of America (NCL) out of Honolulu. We were at a port every day with no sea days and loved it.

We made it.... BLT is very new and still has the new smell. The check in is at the old Contemporary and is slow but they know what they are doing. Using the web check in does speed things up a little. The view from the Top of the World lounge is good, not great. It gives you a new prospective for Wishes. You are looking at from the right side of the castle. You see where they shoot the fireworks off. The pool is nice but small. The water slide is cool but small. Disney is trying to keep out guests that are not staying at BLT. The studio room is smaller then ALK. Enough storage for a long weekend but I would not want to be here for longer then 5 days. The biggest thing that I do not like is the sink for the bathroom is in the kitchen (I guess it is this way in all the studios).

I will post how our trips is going nightly (free internet for DVC)

Night all

We just checked out of Wilderness Lodge Villas this morning after a 10 day stay. We had the two bedroom and loved all the space. It was a great time; a little sad to be back home in NJ. ;(

Enjoy the view of the castle!

The beds are great. Felt right "at home". One thing I forgot to mention last night was power. The room has plenty of outlets in convenient places. So you do not have to hunt and move furniture around for your laptop power, cell charger, charger for camera, ect. One other thing BLT has is free internet in the rooms but so does the outside areas, pool, Top of the World lounge, and lobby. Well off the MK in a few.

You all have a magical day

THat is what we want to do.

I dont know if it will be the year after this cruise or not.

I think i would want to save up some extra monies with airfare etc i but i cost a pretty penny.

Did you do an excursion everyday?

What time of year did you go?

How was the weather?
