Well I am off to re-read a bit, cause I totally don't know the back-story here, but it sure is fun to play along!
 
Just a warning, it looks as though we may be under attack, take cover I say - TAKE COVER!!:lmao::rotfl2:

I just wanted to say that I have just booked to stay at the AKL CL for the 1st week in December. we have always stayed at a value resort but decided to splurge since this was our first time to see DW at Christmas. the funny part is that we were originally booked at a standard room at GF but changed last week and still saved $2000. :cool1: My DW and DD9 are excited and DD9 is already asking to sleep on the balcony next to the animals.:lovestruc

Congratulations on your first trip to AKL and making it CL will be wonderful...

If you want me to add you to the list, please provide your dates...

....hey-y-y-y-y-y, I didn't say that first part! :rolleyes:
 
Tonyslady, I hope hubby aces the test :thumbsup2

Yeah to saving moeny on trip and sleeping with the animal:love:

Just love my daily dose of AKL sanity or insanity:rotfl:
 
....hey-y-y-y-y-y, I didn't say that first part! :rolleyes:

I am having senior "quote" moments.... Sorry, totally screwed that one up, gonna try and get your words back, but if it doesn't work, can we just pretend?
 
Ok so i'm starting to freak out now... we were supposed to be packing out in a week and a half. and leavening for Disney in 12 days. Dh came home Thursday and said they revoked his orders sending him to tx and said they may or may not reinstate them next week. This messes everything up, we should know more by tomorrow. But if we aren't going then that means i won't be able to take kids out of school early. We had planned to disenroll the kids from school so they weren't counted absent for the last 3 days of , but without orders we can't do that. My oldest dd has been sick a lot this year but not sick enough to go to the dr's so if she misses anymore days she will not be allowed to move up to the next grade, even tho her grades are good. If dh's does get his orders reinstated then he would have to go to tx and the kids and i would have to come back here to get things packed and shipped down to tx as we would not have time between now and may 20th to receive new shipping dates and such. (btw for those who are confused dh is military so we go where they send us) If it ends up that we are not going to tx i'm going to have to try and switch our Disney trip from the dates i have now to sometime in July. I soooo don't want to do this as it is so hot and we'll probably have to take whatever room they will give us that will fit our crew and we’ll have to stay a day less then what we originally planned. Then that means having to change all my dining ressies and we'll miss SWW. Bah i am really not liking the military right about now.

Anyways sorry for the rant and thanks for listening. Hopefully we’ll get some pixi dust tomorrow and everything will right itself.

:scared1: Sending pixie dust that everything works out OK.:wizard:
 
I just got back today from my Mother's day trip to the Poly CL... we were upgraded to THEME PARK VIEW!!! I was swimmin' in pixie dust all weekend!

now... three weeks, one day until AKL-Jambo! Life is good.

How have you all been/ I missed 13 pages.
Brandi- how is your daughter?
Jen- how's the job?
Kim- How are you holding up? Is anything getting better with the family?

Awesome! Of course, she might find it a bit cold in December on the balcony.

:hug: Tonyslady

I have not booked anything yet because of hubby's orders:headache: He is in school and won't finish till end of july and than they want him to report in sometime in august to japan:scared1: Without going home to see family. Yeah, we would not be in good standing with family. As it is family is bugging me about when are going home. They just don't get it:sad2: A total mess.

If hubby gets his orders reinstated, won't you be able to keep your moving appointmments? I would hope they would reinstate those for you. I hope you can get it all figured out.



Lmao oops that was supposed to be leaving. My brain is sooo fried right now. :rotfl:

i'm trying to keep myself from having a panic attack right now...dh is off to take a test and everything kinda depends on how it goes. If he bombs then we'll know that we aren't going to tx but if he aces it then we might be going and we'd have to wait till the end of the week till we know anything.


Thank you to both your husbands for serving! :cheer2:


Hi everyone!! I'm so excited....I am going to AKL this weekend to celebrate my DD's 10th birthday! We live in Orlando and this is our first time staying at AKL. It will be just me and THREE 10 year old girls....what was I thinking?!? LOL! We have an Arusha view, Zebra trail, 3rd floor room. Hopefully it will be awesome!

Any tips/tricks/must-do's? What are these zebra dome things that I heard about?

I want to try to decorate the table for dinner and have goody bags put out without the girls seeing me. It will be hard for me to do that, though, since I am the only adult with our group. Plus I need to get organized for cake/cupcakes. Debating whether to bring my own or order from there. I'm not sure where we are going to eat. Maybe just that Mara restaurant pool-side. What are the other restaurants like? I don't want to have to get the girls dressed up, so we want something casual. Will they "reserve" a table for us so that I can try to sneak down before-hand and decorate the table?

I'm going to try to read through the AKL threads and get all the cool info that has been collected over the years, but there are a LOT of pages, so if anyone has a "top 10" list for AKL, I'd love to hear it! :)

Wow, 3 ten year old girls? :scared1:

I am not sure if they will reserve a table for you at Mara or not. Besides Mara, you may want to look into Boma. It is a african themed buffet that has many yummy options.
 
Good morning. So a small update, Dh didn't bomb the test but didn't ace it either. needed around a 1500 and got 1350ish which is really good any other time but this one. sooo now we have to see if I can still take dd1 out of school 3 days early. if not i'll be calling to postpone our trip.:sad1: I'm thinking maybe mid-late july. Hoping for the 2br villa with a savannah view but won't get my hopes up...oh and we'll have to stay 1 less night as that puts us in a higher point bracket. What other DVC options would you all recommend that would fit our family of 6? Any help is appreciated...and maybe a little pixi dust as well? Thanks.
 
Good morning, Jamborinis! :sunny:

Good Morning!
