Why clog an artery when you can solidify it?

 

[keishashadow]

i'd swear that bacon looks deep fried

my take re renting DVC points, just remember that it technically is 'illegal' in eyes of DVC. They won't do anything to aid you if u get ripped off, they won't even speak to u re the existence of ur ressie. Many report it works out well for them, at the very least i'd use paypal/CC & request a signed contract.

I've transferred points & rented to other members (just easier as we all know the ropes). If you're going to rent, just make sure to look for somebody here who has been around awhile...street cred as it were. btw, not to be construed as solicitation, im fresh out of points lol

jmho, it's hard to beat the net price of offers of free dining @ disney @ the value or mod resorts with 3 or 4 guests in a room, the 40% pin codes rnt too shabby either.

It puts in my mind Grummpier Old Men when Virgious Merdith sitting on the couch next to the lake and tells his son~god forgot about me,I'm 92yrs old I smoke A pack A day, eat A pound of bacon in the morning and 2 or 3 lbs for lunch and I just drink my dinner!!!

Hey Mac ... thought you'd enjoy this website

Nope - wasn't me! We're not supposed to arrive until the 21st! Are you trying/hoping for free dining? I'd think with the 14-21st, you might have a chance at it, but almostly certainly not with the 7-14th.

No--I got a pin for 40% off my room which comes out ahead of the free dining. I just had a thought last night that maybe I should call AAA and not do the tickets as a package and then buy separately.
Anybody have any thoughts on that?

Aargh--too many decisions with Disney--love it, but Uni is so much easier to plan.

We were going the following week, but rumors are floating that the school might begin on the 16th and I would hate for DS14 to miss the 1st week of Freshman year.

Oh and I just saw that March 1st is National Pig Day.

You sound just like my wife!!! Living here in south Louisiana we have very little chance of ever getting any snow.. but she has told me that she will NEVER move anywhere where it snows.. she hates the cold, and she really hates snow!!!!

 

[Worfiedoodles]

Good snowy morning everyone! Would you believe it's snowing here in Georgia for the third time this yearI feel just like that snow cat, I live in GA to avoid all this cold weather. I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and move to Florida next winter. I just have to wait until that lottery ticket pays off.

i love that site.
i even bookmarked it so i will never lose it.

No--I got a pin for 40% off my room which comes out ahead of the free dining. I just had a thought last night that maybe I should call AAA and not do the tickets as a package and then buy separately.

ok.
i'll fix pulled pork on March 1st this year.
or go for the sammie that coach posted.....

i do my motherland trip before i do the darkside trip each year.
i play with the figures all the time to get the best deal.

i have done the free dining package 5 times but that was when you only had to buy a one day base ticket to get it.

one year i lost money on it as no aaa discount was allowed on that package.

also, one other year i lost money again with the package as i did not eat enough to offset the deal in my favor.

once you add in the extra tax for the other county, gratuity and tax, and the increase cost of paying rack rate for the room, it is not advantageous for a solo guest there.

this year i bought the tickets from UT and booked room only with the AAA discount.
i compared it to the package, even if it is free dining, and will be saving over $175 paying opp for food.

Well i don't know if Mac enjoyed that website but i sure did... very cute....

to the newest homie:

oliver, the homie with all the numbers.........

so glad you are here.
stick around, jump in and yak anytime!

[bubba's mom]

aahhh-ha! So that's where you're hiding...at work!!

As I mentioned earlier, we are headed to Hawaii for 13 days at the end of April. I am totally OCDing on the planning. SOOOOOO much to do and then have to make decisions. We are staying on Kauai for 7 days and Maui for 6.

One of my main goals on this trip is to visit as many Jurassic Park film locations as I can. Most of the filming took place on Kauai but there is one memorable scene that was shot off the east coast of Maui. Here is what I have planned so far....and forgive me for my screencap shortcomings. Not that there is anything wrong with taking a pic of scene on your laptop.

Our first hike starts 5 miles from our condo off of Kawaihau Road. We hike into Ho' opi'i' Falls. They filmed the amber mine scenes here.

Next on the tour will be trying to find the kayak rental place that was converted to a cafe for the film. They state that this is San Jose, Costa Rica but it's not. I've been there, and unless you are on a mountain, you can't even see the ocean.

One adventure that is a MUST on this trip is to where the infamous JP GATE was. The only thing remaining are two 25 foot vertical concrete pillars that were used for support the gate. They even had to tear out the road they built for the scene when the shoot was over. I could care less....I want to be there! It pretty rough to get there. We take Hwy 580 (located 2 miles from our condo) until the pavement ends. Then we travel just over two miles on a muddy, rutty, rough dirt road (over two low water bridges) just to get there. Our 4WD jeep should come in quite handy. I want to superimpose one of our IOA JP entrance pics on top of it when I get home.

The Visitors Center, Dilaphasauras pen and the Ficus trees where he finds the Raptor eggs are all filmed in the Allerton Garden. The Visitor Center is obviously torn down but the trees are still there!

The memorable helicopter scene as they approach the island was shot off the Maui coast, and then by "magic" the copter actually flies through canyons on the Na Pali coast on Kauai. My vantage point of the "rock" will be from on top of the hill looking down. The same goes for the canyon. From the top looking through it, towards the ocean.

One famous place we WON'T be visiting is Manawaiopuna Falls. At a cost of $300 pp...and you DON'T get to land....just a fly by...ummmmmmm, no. It's only reachable by copter so I will have to miss out on that one.

Sooooooooooooo....that's what I have planned so far. Don't get me wrong, we are doing a bunch of other things. If we just so happen to have to pass one of these sites on our way.....well, why not stop.

Now that's what I call a cool trip!!!!

 

[Coach81]

Mac- Shutter is not confusing.. pretty easy to follow, it is a bit slow at times, but it moves along well enough. The ending is the big payoff!

MH- What a GREAT idea to add to your trip!!! You are going to have such a blast!!!

Hang on.. gang.. weekends almost here! Gone see The Crazies tomorrow night...
