Mike, have you tried Thrifty? I've had good luck with them using the Orlando magic card rate.

Sharon, what is the "Orlando Magic Rate Card"? Sorry for my ignorance. Probably missed this discussion somewhere??

Thanks for any help!

the orlando magic card has been around for some years.

i started with it in the early 1990's.

it gives you discounts at various places such as resturants, hotels, entertainment in the kissimmee, orlando, etc area.

i did use it at universal for food discounts back in 1995 but that was the last time as i switched to AAA and MC discounts then. don't know if they still allow it.

http://community.usatourist.com/forums/t/352.aspx
is the site for the free sign up for it.

you can get brochure booklets on hotels off site from any of the parks.
i have used them for that.

my first year at disney and universal i stayed at the days inn suites next to old town in kississmmee. gee, i cant speel right now....sorry

for what was going for $85 in 95, i got for $47 a night.
it wasn't the best place but was very cheap with one bedroom with 2 double beds, pull down murphy full size bed and sleeper sofa inthe living room.
2 tvs, full kitchen, etc.

mike there are other florida cards but not allfree.

with orlando magic card, you can get 2 fers for some attractions at I drive.


use this site for the sign up. i screwed up on the first one....

the first one is a link to the site.

... after my initial "OMG" reaction, I just had to laugh

... I'm sorry Mac

 

[scotlass]

Mac,Im sorry....but I laughed so hard a wee bit pee came out !!

here's a wee story to cheer you up...I know your more a cat kinda Lassie but...



Coco was outside one day playing in the garden. He was sniffing the flowers and chewing on the plants. This was his favorite thing to do. He was a happy little poodle with soft brown hair and big brown eyes. As he was sniffing a bright red rose, a bee buzzed by and stung him on the nose.

Coco yelped in pain and began to cry. He went to sit in the shade of a big, old tree that was in the corner of the yard. His nose hurt and it made his eyes sting. He hunkered down in the grass feeling sorry for himself. He hoped that cousin Bailey did not come outside and see him crying. Then he would think he was a baby.

But a shadow passed by and even before he looked up, Coco knew who it was. He saw cousin Bailey looking at him expectantly.

"Whatcha doin', Coco?" The big, happy German Shepherd asked him.

"I'm hurtin'." Coco replied with a sniffle. "A big, mean old bee stung me on my wittle nose."

"Aw." Bailey tsked tsked. "My poor buddy." Bailey put a large paw on his cousin's shoulder.
"Don't cry. It's not worth it."

"That's easy for you to say." Coco pouted. "You're not the one who got stung."

"I'm sorry, little dude. You gotta learn to be tough like me."

"But my nose hurts." Coco insisted as he began to tear up again.

"Here, let me take a look at it." Bailey offered, always eager to lend a helping paw.

Coco gazed up at his big, brave cousin. Bailey was so crazy sometimes but he was a good guy. Sometimes he scared Coco because he was so big but he knew that his cousin would never hurt him.

"Aw, it ain't so bad." Bailey told him. "You poodles are all alike. That's why the cops take us out on a stakeout and not little wimps like you."

"You're mean, cousin Bailey!" Coco was mad at him now.

Bailey laughed. "I'm only kidding, little fella."

"What are you gonna do?" Coco asked, shaking.

"I'm gonna kiss it and make it feel better, little guy. Don't you trust me?"

"Yes." Coco nodded. "But you're such a big doofus. You scare me sometimes."

"Do you really think I would hurt you? You're my favorite cousin in the whole wide world."

Bailey began to lick Coco's little, wet nose. He licked and licked until the small, brown poodle smiled.

"Gee, cousin Bailey! My nose feels so much better! Thank you! You're the best!"

"Aw, nothin; to it, kiddo. It's cause I love you so much. That's why it feels better."

"I love you too, cousin Bailey." Coco kissed the Shepherd on his nose. "Do you want to share my milkbones with me?"

"Sure. Why not?"

Coco got a milkbone for Bailey. Then he got one for himself. The two of them lazed away the rest of the afternoon munching happily on their biscuits in the shade of the tree. And they were careful to stay away from the bees.

a stupid but now dead bee flew up my nose.

Wow, talk about catching a buzz.

Sorry Mac, it must have been very painful. I hope you are feeling better soon.

 

[macraven]

i'm still trying to figure out how the milkbones should make me feel better.


but it's cute scotlass.......but the nose still hurts....


now i need a "pick me"up for the swelling........in the nose.

i think the stinger is still in there.
i wonder if someone will come lick it for me......

 

[macraven]

i'm playing with youse scotlass.
i know youse are trying to get my mind off of it and that is so sweet of youse.



when i sneeze, i remember the pain oh so well........
i guess it was a good thing i had my mouth closed when the bee went to my face......i could have swallowed it...

instead i snorted it.....
