So after he made the comment about not watching TV on vacation, did it hit him what he had just said or was he oblivious????? I don't think I could've held my tongue on that comment!

 

[MRYPPNS]

Ahhhhhh... CBR my home in 2008.

I got one of those Celebration cards too.

I think Jellyrolls gets hopping after 10pm.

CBR looks like a lovely resort (I think LL should choose it!! )
Didn't you TrenD? I spent A LOT of money in there but am very happy with what I got so it's okay (the big ticket items were a Dooney & Bourke Disney purse and one of those crazy "Harvey's" purses made out of seatbelts with Mickey all over it...oh and a make-up bag too )
A goose before your other geese at Epcot?
for getting asked for id....I don't even think that happens to me in the grocery store anymore I must have been stamped on my forehead when I turned 39!
Like the earrings too!

Sorry for the hijack Jackie, Tracy, could you post a picture of your D&B bag?

 

[manntra]

You bet Anita...I am work right now (I have the seat belt bag with me now ) I will when I get home after 4. Love them both!

 

[disneyfan61]

Great update Jackie. So Charles thinks that a vacation should not be spent watching tv??? That statement cracked me up after reading previous reports Looks like you got a great start to your vacation. Sitting by the pool & having a drink Anxious to hear about your first day at Epcot.

 

[eandesmom]

Great update Jackie! It looks like a lovely afternoon and evening and plan B worked out perfectly. Bummer about the texts...we certainly have that experience any time we try to get away. Texting is great but oh, if they could email all of it at once it would be so much easier, faster and just taken care of!

Of course then we'd have to buy them smart phones. I suppose a text is getter than the actual call when you are on vacation.

I'm glad Charles recognized sitting inside and watching TV was not an ideal way to start out the trip. 2 happy pictures of him so far....very encouraging!

Sorry for the hijack Jackie, Tracy, could you post a picture of your D&B bag?

Me too, I'd like to see!

You bet Anita...I am work right now (I have the seat belt bag with me now ) I will when I get home after 4. Love them both!

I just bought that bag from Zappos and am planning to return it as I'm really worried about the stiffness of the strap chafing my shoulder in summer. Does it soften up? it is SO cute.

What other bags did they have

ok this is a total hijack! I'm sorry!!!

 

[lauren_elizabeth]

So I came over to this trip report because I know there will be some crawfish etouffee involved!!!!!

And because I just want to read along, too!

 

[winkers]

I'm impressed by your ability to not say anything about Charles desire to not spend his vacation in the room.

Funny that you got carded......I didn't know you were married to Hugh Heffner.

 

[momof2TNboys]

Great Update! I totally cracked up when you were carded! That has happened to me several times before and it used to make me so mad, but as I get older, I appreciate it more! Can't wait to hear more! Loved your last TR also!

 

[jordanyosh]

Ahhh....the Boardwalk.......maybe I should have kept my reservations there....nah. Beautiful huh!

MATT! I miss my "friend" Matt. Glad to know he's still there. I'm also glad he lived up to his billing.

Your pix of CBR are great. We've stayed at CBR in Barbados 3 different times. I actually like that location. Closer to Customs House and a nice walk to OPR......

 

[MEK]

Carded at CBR????? I told you ...you really are a young'n! That's too funny. You know what else? I haven't seen that make pictures of Charles, but I am starting to notice a resemblance between him and my friend Chuck, who watched the kids while we were away. Chuck and his wife are also going to Disney with us in May.

I love your pictures of CBR, especially the sunset picture. The resort is beautiful. I can't really remember were Barbados is in relation to the food court/pool, ect. Its been a while since I stayed there.

I think your Plan B worked out really well for the evening. Sounds like you had a lovely evening together. Oh....and the anniversay card.....very cute. I like that!

 

[manntra]

Here is the Harvey's seat belt bag and the make up bag (they are from my iPhone so I hope they look okay.) It is quite a stiff bag but I have only used it for a week now...it is a box style bag so it won't be going over my shoulder. It is very sturdy and it has cute charms on it too...oh let me go take a picture of them I will post the D&B when I get home ( I am being very productive at work )

 

[Mndisneygirl]

I think those bags are so cute! I saw a picture of the D&B wristlet and tote somewhere on the DIS threads, but I can't remember where.
Does anyone know prices for the D&Bs?? I don't want to "want" it and then realize it's too expensive. Also, how big is the D&B tote? I had an idea of what I would like to use it for, but not sure it would work anyway.
TIA!
Jackie - love the pics! We stayed at CBR in Jan and I loved it! I honestly can't remember what country we were in, want to say Barbados.

 

[manntra]

Here is the D&B bag....I think it was $175 but there was a smaller one but I think it was still $150. The seat belt bag was I think $138 and the make up $60. Told you it was a lot! As eandesmom said she bought one on Zappos (seat belt) and it was much cheaper
I think they are both cute and I am happy I bought them both....my niece thought the seat belt bag was ugly and that is all that I needed to hear...I swear when someone else dislikes something it psychologically makes me want it!!

Thanks Jackie!

CP & Charles?

[wigdoutdismom]

Very cute bags! Jackie must be gone for the afternoon.....
I'm sure she would approve she likes this kind of stuff too!

 

[MaryAz]

Had to chuckle at Charles. Sorry you did not get to go to MNSSHP but it looks like you had a fun night. We had those same sandwichs back in May-they were spicy-but yummy!

 

[Native NYer]

CBR was very tropical -- it is so cold and windy here this morning that I wish I was back there!

I thought the anniversary card was just darling -- I love Disney's attention to things like that!

Yes, Matt is the same bartender that Jordan likes so much! I made sure to point that out to Charles! LOL!

We got A LOT of phone calls/texts from Chelsea -- thank goodness she had to go to school for two days of our trip!

It's cold in NYC today also. I wish I were anywhere warmer.

You should have brought a Flat Jordan with you to ESPN

Was Chelsea upset that she didn't go?
