Sounds like an awesome trip ! I have always wanted to stay at PB !!!!

Stopher....welcome back. Sounds like a nice relaxing trip you had. I'm sure your July trip will be bittersweet in that it's the memorial service for your loved one---but you will also get to see lots of family. Sweet you're making a side trip to DL

Have you all seen this Restaurants.com offer orig sent by Mousesavers.com ? Expires tomorrow. Use the promo code "SUMMER" to get the full discount. They never expire. Unfortunately House of Blues is sold out. But I am going to be trying several Swan and Dolphin restaurants with these certificates. I purchased certificates for $125 worth of food for $10

Save even more on already discounted gift certificates from Restaurant.com! Enter a promotional code listed below in the field on your shopping cart. Remember to click "Recalculate Total" to apply your savings.

Get an extra 80% off already discounted $25 gift certificates at Restaurant.com! Buy a $25 certificate for just $2 after the discount. Use code SUMMER. Expires 6/30/11.

Restaurant.com requires a US zip code when purchasing. However, readers in the UK and Canada report using Restaurant.com successfully by changing their postal code for any random US zip code, such as 32830, which is the zip code for Disney World. They report that Canadian and UK credit cards usually go through just fine even with the wrong postal code attached. Since you print out Restaurant.com certificates at home, your mailing address isn't used for mailing purposes; thus having the wrong postal code on the account really doesn't matter.

Promo codes cannot be combined with any other discount, rebate or promotion. Savings cannot be applied to the redemption of Mega Certificates or Restaurant.com certificates.

I stocked up on them a couple of days ago - since they never expire I'm planning to use one or two each trip.

Hi Groupies:

Muushka ~ Enjoy the cookout on Sunday.

stopher1 ~ Sounds like you had a great time and met some wonderful people. Welcome back! Your trip to CA will be a mix of emotions but at the same time you'll be reuniting with family that you haven't seen in years. Glad you'll be able to spend some time with the mouse!

Disney loving Iowan ~ Awesome!!! I hope all of you will have a much better vacation this year. Being sick on vacation is not fun! Happy planning!

Magicalmcwho ~ Happy Birthday! Have a great day and enjoy!

​

MiaSRN62 ~ Sorry that you have to work all weekend. Let me know how you like the restaurants at the Swan/Dolphin. House of Blues is great and DH/I love it there! Restaurants.com is excellent and I'm thrilled that there are no expiration dates anymore.

franandaj ~ Your going to have a great time on the 4th. Crazy/busy but to see fireworks over the Queen Mary is a sight to see. Enjoy and be careful.

Have a great day everyone.

Stopher - I hope you plan on staying in the OC while you are here. I'm not sure how much you follow SoCal news anymore, but you are coming the weekend of Carmageddon. They are closing the 405 from the 101 to the 10 Freeways and if you listen to the Media you would think that the world was coming to an end and we will forever be separated from those North of UCLA!

I hope that enjoy your family time and visit to DL while you are here. It's a sad reason for visiting but celebrate your wonderful grandmother and cherish the precious time you have with the family you still have.

I HAVE read about Carmageddon... had me rolling too.

I will be staying in the OC. I'll be at my FIL's for part of it, and in Anaheim for part of it. Hoping to see some other friends while I'm there, but so far haven't been able to "get on the schedule" of some of them. We'll see though. Will you be at the parks on Sunday (17) or Monday (18) by chance? If so, perhaps a meet is in the cards. If not, that's cool - I just thought I'd throw it out there.

Thanks I Book He Pays......the life of a nurse.....

And I'll definitely report back on my experiences with the S&D hotels. Probably not places I'd ordinarily try if not for these certificates, so they're nice in that way.

Happy Birthday Magicalmcwho!!

I need a WDW fix.

I would be happy with any interactive Disney fix!

Stopher - it would be fun to head out to the parks, but with our date for the Estate sale set for July 26-27 and the fact that the company said we can bring anything we want over, I will be busy for the next month.

Boy Groupies, I really feel out-of-the-loop! It seems like weeks since I've had opportunity to scan the Boards.
We still have only a dial-up Internet connection and it seems to be getting ever slower and slower. It's not uncommon to see me sitting at my computer and looking up info on my phone and DDad's iPad while I'm waiting on my pages to load.....

Just saw we're having another Groupie birthday, so wanted to wish Magicalmcwho a very Happy Birthday! Hope you enjoy your day in celebration with family and friends.

Stay well my Groupie friends and enjoy your holiday week-end!

Life should return to 'normal' for us once DS and his wife are settled in to their new home in Virginia. We'll be making the trip to Leesburg next week. Any groupies in the area (Leesburg) and up for a meet?

Hi Di

I wish were were closer, would love to see you. But have a great trip!

PS I feel for you with the dial-up. I had it up until a few years ago.

NO worries Alison... I just thought I would throw it out there ... just in case. I'm sure we'll be able to get together at some point in the future.

Hi everyone! Relaxing pool side at our beloved VWL pool. Been checking in via Facebook. Haven't been able to post till now. Spent 4 lovely nights at Kidani and then moved here. We are in 5557....the very last room lakeside on the long hall. Actually very roomy 2 BR! Having a great trip. Still hard not to find Stan! Will post some photos when I get back. Check out Yee Haw Bob's photos. We had a blast with him at POR. He is definitely worth checking out. So much fun and another great Disney treasure!
