Privacy question when sleeping in one of the Value rooms...

[scottish mum]

One of the reasons we loved the cabins at FW last year

I have been trying to figure out how to sell DH on DVC. Thanks for the tips!

To answer your question, a mixed drink usually makes me forget how tired I am and how sore my feet are for AT LEAST an hour!

Especially if you chug-a-lug it Which is another adult behavior you don't want to show the kids.

Let me share a possibly fictional story:

Fade in on darkened All Star Sports Room.

Wife: Do you think they're asleep yet?

Kids: Not yet!

...time passes.

Wife: I think they're asleep!

Husband: I'll get the mixed drinks out of the cooler!

Wife: *giggle*

Crashing noise as husband falls over suitcase trying to find cooler

Wife: Shhh! Oh My God! We've been sitting in the dark for an hour trying to get them to fall asleep, for crying out loud don't wake them up!

Husband: I think my toe is bleeding.

Wife (from bathroom): Pour some booze on it and get in here!

Husband stumbles into bathroom holding drinks and his bleeding toe. Fan turns on. Crashing noise is heard as bottle slips from husband's bloodied hand to smash on the tile floor of the bathroom. Fan turns off. Kids wake up.


...and then we bought DVC.

ROFLMBO!!! Hilarious!

Some friends of mine sell DVC (or does DVC sell itself LOL) I am so forwarding this thread to them. LOL

OMGoodness I was laughing so hard I started to cry. We are one of those who enjoy vacation "tango" times. I did like that the SOG had a sink room that had its own door to the room and also one from the bathroom too....PERSONAL AREA!!!!!!

Oh my gosh, I'm holding my sides and crying I'm laughing so hard. I was "trying" to read this aloud to DH, and could barely get the words out.

Hey Mary Ann-get back over to the Boutique board LOL.

Us too!
There was a very funny thread on this a few months back and they decided if you "needed a sheet up" or used the "bathroom fan" then you were in the Bannana Dance Club!

I can't find it now, but it had some very creative ways to "Banana Dance" while on vacation.

We, on the other hand, had a value room with a 9 yr. old, no bathroom fan would have worked. You need something to look forward too when you get home anyway!

Unfortunatly that thread was closed, but it was very funny, and I proudly have the in honor of it. Our kids are 14, 10 and 7 and we stay values. Our oldest sleep with the grandparents in an adjoining room, but our little 2 were in the room. We, I admit, can't go a week, so a few times we, well, all we did was wait till the kids fell asleep. Once our kids are out, they are OUT! It isn't always good, once we tried to get them out of the house when our neighbor's garage was one fire (near our house), but it is great on vacation. We never have had an issue, once they are asleep we are fine to .

Meant to quote Kickapoo Joie Juice in pp but can't laugh and type at the same time!

 

[JerseyMamaBear]

I agree...that's a serious ew when the kids are in the same room. Send them to one of the Disney babysitting clubs....don't do it with them in the room....ew ew ew.

Now that my kids are older we tend to send them to the pool....but at night when they are in the room....gross...

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, NOT WHEN YOUR KIDS ARE IN THE ROOM!
I am still traumatized over how I could hear my parents. We wont even go there but it really does mess with a kids mind to hear/see that.

[Mandychelle79]

Mandy, you *do* realize that we're not talking about sleeping here, right?

Ok, I have to go to work before I get myself in trouble .

I did know what you were talking about. I quoted a post about not sleeping in the same bed as hubby on vacation. Ive often said my favorite part of of our honeymoon ( taken 7 months after the wedding and i was 23 weeks pregant) was having my own bed

 

[Tinker_]

Bwahahahahaha! I love this thread! Told DBF about it, and at first he looked horrified, but then (lightbulb) he said.. "How much more to upgrade to ASMu Suite?" LMAO LMAO!!!!!!

 

[timzagain]

Ok...to all you wannabe banana dancers who'd like to use the bathroom for "recreation," please don't do like a couple I know and yank the sink out of the wall in the process! (don't remember where but it wasn't at Disney!)

Can you imagine calling the front desk/ mousekeeping to report that "So, sorry to trouble you, but could you send someone to fix our sink? It kinda fell off the wall while DH and I were ah....um....showering" I would be sooooooo embarassed!

We've stress-tested just about every sink, toilet, bathtub handle and towel rod in the values and moderates and DVC. They're good to go.


...and I love making people laugh!

 

[DonnaBelle06]

Hubby is now thinking we should have booked earlier to get into ASMu Fam suite!!!!!!

LOL - I told him that if push come to shove we'd just put them in one of those kids clubs for a couple of hours!

Hey - gotta keep a smile on while at Disney!
Donna (the OP)

 

[Tinker_]

Donna I am so glad you are being such a good sport about this thread, lol- bc it is making my day, and one of my besties is in need of cheering up today- so I sent her this way.. HA! But I also know when she reads it she will be packing clorox wipes for her next trip, and wiping down the bathroom!

 

[SCHBR'smom]

I'm so glad I came over to the family board today. Too funny!! And, yes, I'm in the bathroom with the fan on club. Next trip we'll be staying off-site in a rental house, our own room, our own bathroom.

Oh, and I will also be bringing clorox wipes the next time we stay in ANY hotel
