Something About Nothing.........#7

[Metro West]

This damn heatwave is severely limiting my outdoor time. Today's heat index is supposed to be between 102 and 105! This weekend is supposed to be much hotter with heat indexes of 113 Saturday and Sunday! It's not supposed to be this hot this time of year! I can't handle the heat and humidity because of the meds so I can't go to HHN tonight and Sunday isn't looking good right now. The problem is...it's still very humid after dark so going later in the evening just won't work since I would have to leave early because of work the next day. I envy you guys who get to come down and stay out late w/o having to worry about getting up for work.

Sometimes I wish I hadn't moved here....nah!

I was debating about going Sunday to meet up with the homies, but isn't Monday Columbus day? Wouldn't it be a tad busier then a typical Sun?

Good afternoon homies

Very cool pics! We cheated on US/IOA and had our first trip to Disney Sept 26-Oct 3 this year. I must say your photos make me miss US/IOA even more. We are all ready to go back to US/IOA this year. We love it so much more than Disney.

Morning and TGIF! Today is going to be record high temps for this area. The expected high is 96 with a heat index of 116! I can't believe this crap...it's October for crying out loud!

Anyway....have a good Friday!

I will link my trip report over here is someone would kindly tell me how

Dawnna - the easiest way is to just go to your trip report, look up at the address bar on the top of your screen, copy it all, and then paste it into your post. It'll be long and messy looking, but should work.

If you want it to say something like "My Trip Report" instead, then do the same thing - copy the link. Then when you go into the reply box, in the line above where you start typing, in the middle right, there's a pic that looks kind of like a globe and a pair of glasses (not really sure at all what it really is). Click on that. If you have a popup blocker, you may need permission to run scripted windows - just click yes (temporarily allow) when it asks).

Then paste your link into the box (it should come up with some highlighted test, which you want to go away), and press okay. When you do this, you should get a long string of stuff, starting with [URL.... The middle part should be highlighted. You can type anything you want there (and the middle part will go away and what you type will be there as the link).

Feel free to PM me if you want further instructions! Good luck!

About 20 years ago my wife and I took our very first vacation together. We went to Disney. Back then we had no money but we found a great package deal for 4 nights at $250 for 2 people including hotel and park passes.

We wanted to stay an extra night and when we went to the park we decided to buy this 7 day park hopper pass that had no expiration. We’ve been back several times but we still have 2 days left on it.

We have made a pact with each other to never use the last day. This way as long as we live we will always have that one day left. It’s kind of romantic.

Well, I guess that makes more sense! Maybe I need the glasses to see what it's supposed to be!

The much needed vacation

Thanks Marcie

Yes very romantic. I on the other hand have a jaded hubby that could careless about the parks. He goes cause I want to, though I kinda do not give him a choice. He doesn't understand why I want to go so much, like HHN for example - He told me yesterday, "We saw everything, why do you want to go again?" He says he enjoys HHN cause of my reactions (he constantly freaks me out), not so much because of the event itself. The same thing goes for Disney - I blame his parents lol...

Yeah, but it sounds like it's a lot closer for you - probably loses some of the excitement and romance after awhile, just like anything else in life. I'd give anything to live near the beach (well, a warm one, Green Bay doesn't qualify) or in Florida or near the mountains, but people I know who do just take them for granted. Guess it's all a matter of perspective!

Totally true. We just moved to Orlando over a year ago, but I have been living in Florida now for 14 years. Hubby is a native. But I used to go to WDW at least 2x a year growing up - it brings that nostiagia back. Its all perspective and introspective.

Its all perspective and introspective.

That's something I always wonder when I know people who are going for the first time and ask for recommendations. It's hard to separate sometimes what rides I like because they're truly good rides from ones that I like because they bring back memories of myself on them as a kid or as my teens on them as young kids. A lot of times when someone asks me if something is good (especially at the MK), I have to preface my recommendations with that warning!

For example, on this trip, (with just DS16 and me), we saw the Canada film for the first time. We really enjoyed it and thought it was hilarious. However, if I go back with my DH, I'm not sure he'd think it was as funny, and I'm not even sure if DS and I enjoyed it just because it was new, we were away from everyone else, and in a good mood!
