Wow! Those decorations are great! Is it bad that I've stayed at WL for 4 years and I've never made it over to see FW?
Oh, guess what! I finally started my TR last night
Yes. Get yourself over there and visit your next-door-neighbors!
I think you stayed right above where we were this summer.
I saw a TV special during Christmas time where they showed people sprucing up their homes at FW for Christmas. I just think it is so cool that guests do that and that people stay their for so long. I never made it their in November- just AKL. Maybe I can go explore there during the day this year before
MVMCP.
I hate testing. I taught elementary for a few years but then moved on to Art. Then last year I was laid off but I just got a part-time job today that I'm thrilled about. My kids have the FCAT next week.
They showed a lot of those same decorations on the Samantha Brown Christmas show. I know the bubble bath one was on it.
I wouldn't encourage anyone to go into teaching these days. It is not at all what it used to be, and it is only going to get worse. This week, instead of teaching Reading, I have to Running Record test eighteen students indiviually. It takes hours. Then I have to DIBELS test ten others. Then I have to ThinkLink test my homeroom two afternoons.
I feel the same way MeMom. It makes me so sad.
30 minutes extra a day...well, most Magic School Bus episodes are 28 minutes...seems perfect!
A district near me is doing this also because they had no banked days. They are calling for snow here again tomorrow night. I'm hoping they are wrong because it will be Saturday school for me if we miss.
I loved the Fort Wilderness pictures! I want to do the sleigh ride next year so I'll get to see all the fun decorations. Some of those folks really go all out!
We'll have to be creative, because the kids will be more than ready to go home!
We have not done the sleigh ride. Maybe that's something we can do when I have enough to fill the sleigh with a whole bunch of grandkids.
Can you imagine staying in WDW 7 months out of the year???
Do you think you'd get bored?
I tell you what, I'd love the opportunity to find out.
The decorations in all those camp sites are something else!
I figure it's pretty much home to them. They'd get less bored there than we would at home, I would think.
After seeing your FW pictures I need to add FW to my list of resorts to visit at Christmas.
It's worth the visit. It's a beautiful, clean campground.
They really do go all out at Ft. Wilderness don't they? The decorations are just unbelievable!!!
At home, all of that would be considered gaudy, but there, in the spirit of fun that it is, it works.
Wow, seeing all your FW pictures makes me really regret not heading over there to check out all those decorations when we were there in December!
Those people do an amazing job!
Can you imagine living IN Disney World 7 months out of the year?! Pure bliss
Maybe one day?
I'll never be able to do it, but if I could arrange to go four to six times a year, I think that would be perfect for me.
Wow, they sure go all out with their decorations! I can't believe that windshield full of all the stuffed Mickeys, Pooh Bears, and more!
I think it's over-the-top crazy, but it is just perfect for that place. People are just walking or riding golf carts up and down the rows of campers looking at all of the fun decorations. It's just what the campground is about at that time of the year.
Ft Wilderness looks amazingly fun! Maybe I will live down there 7 mos out of the year?? Then I would be around Disney ALL the time!
And it's such a different atmosphere over there. we talked about renting a camper and trying it out sometime.
aww... thanks.
I didn't realize Fort Wilderness had an inflatable forest!
Good golly.
I get the impression they don't leave often.... I think I could do 7 months out of the year at Disney.
They just have their friends all around and they have a good time. I guess they have jobs where they can work from their computers pretty much, or maybe they are all lottery winners.
Ft. Wilderness is on our must do list next Christmas for sure! It looks like so much fun!
Oh by the way....
We went to the library tonight.
Checked out Horton Hears a Who. DVD
It also has bonus stories Horton Hatches the Egg
and Daisy-Head Mayzie
I think the Kids are going to love watching those stories!
Good luck finding something!
Baylor and Harper would probably really enjoy seeing all of the decorations. A lot of them moved and/or played music.
I'm going to the library this morning to see what she has. After all the testing, we're all going to be ready for something fun at the end of the day.
I went camping with Charles and his parents, younger sister, brother, and sister-in-law over the summer because they have a pop-up camper from when his parents and sister went cross-country a couple of summers ago. There were people in those giant motor homes who basically lived at the campsite over the summer. I thought that was really cool, but if I had the option and the money, I would totally choose to stay at FW.
She trys to watch it about 3 or 4 times a day and then she puts on dances to the songs. There is 1 song on there titled Making Memories and every time I see or hear it I think of you. Sorry it isn't the best quality but it is the only video I found of the song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbh-f9_W4SI
I must admit all of the decorations minus the snow look a bit peculiar to me but I am a Northern girl!
