Something About Nothing..........#11

[AJ1983]

Hi! Just popped over to see how HP2 was coming along. We have a trip planned for Jan. 2015.

Truthfully, I popped over to get away from the FP+ threads! I open them, and read them, and then I hate myself for doing it!

Here here! I am not going to let it discourage me for my trip in October. Actually I think DFi will like this system more. Instead of getting to DHS at RD to get a FP for 2 hours out for Toy Story, we can book FP+ for whatever time works for us, if we wish to sleep in.

i did my essay over there when i read this post this morning..

That essay was an A*+

 

[macraven]

last month i booked my stay there.
didn't think it was too early......

your dates cross over to mine.

Well I got here but not without incident. I got in an accident in Woodstock va at 3am Wednesday took 3 hours for tow truck and 3 more hours til rental company opened. Got here at midnight went to er then finally to hotel by 4 am. Going to check apartment renovations tomorrow and hopefully sign lease. Only bad thing is Thursday I have to drive back to Virginia to get my car and return rental. Think I'm taking train back on Friday..... never a dull moment but at least I'm going to the parks tomorrow even though the holiday crowds are worrying me lol

Oh goofy so sorry to hear about your accident... what a rough start to your move. Hope you're doing OK after all that trauma.

At least you made it to your new home and after all that it can only get better.

Have fun at the parks and I hope your new place gets ready soon

 

[goofyfigment]

Thanks tink! I'm sore and still freezing all I can say is I was very happy I brought three blankets with me while I was waiting for tow truck otherwise I'd probably be a popcicle now lol

AJ, i was posting that above statement to you.

Goofy, so sorry to hear of your accident. Not a good way to start anew. I hope you are feeling better. Good luck with your new apartment. I hope you had fun at the parks. We will be there at the end of Aug., so if you need any reminder of PA or just want to say hi, we are up to it. Now I can say I know a snow bird that stopped migrating!

Happy Thursday all! Thank goodness it is Friday tomorrow. I am so looking forward to our holiday weekend.

 

[goofyfigment]

Physically I'm just sore but doing well. Car is fixable so I get to go back Thursday oh joy!!! Lol

Lynne definitely let me know when you are in town and we can meet up.

At least now I know I'll be at the hhn meet this year

How awful.......glad to hear you weren't badly hurt though hopefully that's all the bad luck you'll have with the move.....

Enjoy the parks today

last week at this time i was at the darkside and having wonderful weather not having to wear my winter coat and hat/gloves..........


it seems like it was a dream almost as i am back home and it is cold and snowing again.


there are times i truly believe we have only two seasons where i live.
winter and the 4th of July.


to those at the darkside now, party on.
have fun and get a tan before you have to go back home.

How on earth have I missed this post? Hi everyone fairly new to disboards but check in everyday. We are leaving for universal in 12 days and I am so very excited!

First trip to Fl for my son and first time to darkside for me. I so hope the weather is nice and we can enjoy full days at the park. Staying onsite at Royal and doing 3 days at the parks and 2 at the beach.

Oh my only part that makes me nervous is he is not sure about flying. Hmmm well as a teenager out weighing his mom by 40lbs praying I don't have to carry him on the plane LOL Kidding. I hope everyone on dis is patient I have a feeling I will be sharing a lot of photos very soon.

i saw you post about sanford airport on another forum.
you asked about transportation to the parks from that airport.

i just read on the transportation thread that a company Horizons, shuttle service, does work out of sanford.
$35 pp rt from sanford to disney.
price might be different for universal resorts.

i am guessing you still have 9 days before you leave so if you still need transportation, check the company out.
the thread on the transportation is titled where you won't miss it.

you need to do the math to see if this will be cheaper than renting a car and paying for hotel parking.

Thanks. I booked a car Mon - Friday with all fees $155. I know parking is like $20 per night at hotel so we are looking at another $60 there. Total $215with parking. But I do like the idea of having a car to use. DS wants to do beach 1 day and Hard Rock Cafe one night. So I think we might be traveling a bit to different places.

Im just glad I caught my goof up about Sanford and Orlando airports. Oh that could have been ugly start to vacation.

 

[macraven]

by staying onsite, you won't have any transportation issues reaching HRC.
it is in city walk and it is fun!

 

[macraven]

i'm putting goofyfigment on the hhn list for meet ups this year.

i know she won't be missing this one since she'll be living around the corner...

 

[macraven]

i have time on my hands right now and can complain about winter again.


started snowing a few hours ago.
another cold front coming in but it wasn't to start until tomorrow i thought.



i wish the weather stations would make up their minds.

 

[Kogo Shuko]

Mac: We're about to get another really cold snap again. This usually means it's so cold it can't snow!

It snowed yesterday but other than getting the groceries first thing in the morning, I stayed inside all day. I got the laundry done, tackled a pile of dishes, and played video games all day long. I personally think that's one of the best ways to get through a snowy crappy day when the roads are bad.

I mean, I can think of a few other things that are BETTER than video games in my PJs, but not much.

So who here is ready for spring!?

June is my new Spring.

 

[Lynne G]

Me! Me! I am ready for nice weather.

Highs to be in the 20's this week. 4 to 6 inches of snow coming tomorrow. I hope my work says stay home.

DS was talking about USO. He is happy to be going back to the Portofino. He likes the size of the rooms and does not mind the slightly longer walk. We were so lucky last time we stayed there, the boat captain saw us coming from the door closest to our room, and waited for us to catch the boat. It is such a nice ride. We always have nice captains.

It has been a good long weekend. Having today off will screw my workdays up, but that's ok, shorter work weeks are always appreciated.

Happy Monday. Y'all!
