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

[Bluer101]

Bluers - will you guys still be there tomorrow night? We plan to head over for the Mardi Gras parade and the B-52 concert. That is, if my son ever gets here. His flight from Boston today on SW was cancelled and they had nothing else available today so he's on a 5:40am flight (!!) tomorrow morning - connecting too instead of non-stop. So since he'll be up at 3am or so I'm not sure how motivated he's going to be but we'll see!

I wish but we are leaving around noon or so. We have to go back and row the boat to make more money for more trips.

We did not watch any of the 2 this weekend as we have no idea who they are. We wish for the b 52 but we have work Monday and DS is off.

Marcie...awesome pics over the castle

Mac - it was snowing but I don't think that's why it was cancelled since they made the call like 5 hours early and it was the only one they cancelled today on SW (that itinerary). No reason was given (shocking I know).

Bluer - okay, thanks - safe travels back and let us know the next time you're here. We reworked plans and I think will do AK tomorrow instead since DS will be up at 3am to catch his flight plus I have an early morning at the MK (and BOG reservations) on Monday so don't think we want that late of a night.

Thanks Tink - it was fun to watch! (Especially the people who were clueless that it was going to happen!).

sorry your son got caught in that cancelled flight.
hopefully he will get a good sleep in before he has to be up at 3 to get the early morning flight.

it's so nice that all your boys spend a lot of time with you and royce.

i don't get to see my one son that much that lives on the east coast.
so expensive for him to fly back home.
did get to see him in december as he officiated his brothers wedding held near us.
other 2 live near by so see them a lot.
todd only moved 3 miles from home when he married and he comes in and out to see us frequently.
have one more son at home so i never miss him as he is always here ......lol

marcie, how long of a drive for you to reach orlando parks?

plundering is a good thing

you are sorely tempting me to lop off a Disney night and sneak up to RPR for a night in May

marci - cool pics. is the MK still a no-fly zone? have u seen the 'christian' sky writing over MGM lately? wondering if the guy quit, haven't observed last few visits.

 

[tink1957]

The sky writer was at universal when we were there a few weeks ago....guess he went over to the darkside like us

TWD on in about 5 hours.

planning dinner around my show time

 

[Bluer101]

Keisha,

Let me know what day you guys are thinking. We could come up too.

Marci, are you doing the B-52 tonight?

We are home, cars washed, grocery shopping done. Next, dinner and TWD!

I will get photos up for RPR King suite soon, I took quite a few.

at least bluer has his priorities straight.
he is home, did his chores and now waiting for twd to start 3 hours from now.

Here are RPR renovation photos.

At first it was ok, but after a day we really like the new look. The only complaint would be they never changed out old electrical outlets and switches. Plus still have the old AC thermostats which are very tired.

bluer, thanks for sharing the photos.

was the sofa bed an improvement?

on another thread, it was mentioned that T2 will be next.

looks like i will not be able to be in my regular room come october if they start T3 then.

 

[macraven]

lights out but for some of you i know you'll be turning the lights on in about 3 hours

The sofa bed is hard as a rock and the same bed at CB for their suites. There is no springs it's a fold out board with a 2 inch 3 piece attached pad. DS was glad to be in his own bed last night. Also the coffee table is extremely heavy. It has to be over 100 pounds and not good for my back to pull out his bed.

Hi
I'm considering booking our flights for fall since it's unlikely to be any cheaper than $118 rt. I usually book when SW has their post memorial day sale but availability is good now so I probably will book soon...maybe today since I have the day off and too much time on my hands

Not sure how I feel about the new rooms at RPR.... I prefer baths over showers.

Hope everyone has a great week

 

[macraven]

tink, is it about a 5-6 hour drive for you if you don't fly?

 

[tink1957]

mac...it's a 7 1/2 - 8 hour drive vs a 1 hour drive to the airport and a little over an hour flight.

I hate riding in a car for long distances so I'm flying as long as airfare is cheap.

 

[macraven]

good choice

someone bring the dog back in the house, it's almost time to turn off the lights.
