Why do we even try to take other people??

Ah, I see. Part of the joys of family.


I think we'd go a bit nuts if we always took people just as easily as we feel sad spending every Disney vacation alone. It's all in moderation.

So, so true!

I know that my parents won't cancel on me. My niece and BFF have paid for their non-refundable plane tickets, so they won't cancel. I'm looking forward to a nice trip.

I'm glad it worked out for ya.

Shame the college age relatives backed out. I remember passing up a trip to Disney once while in college. I had mid-terms or some paper thingie. It made perfect sense at the time, but it stuck in my craw for years. That's probably why when the chance came to go again a decade later I jumped without hesitation.

Ah, the young and innocent!

Heck, some husbands and wives don't move in the same lockstep

There are even times I like to ditch everyone and go solo

We do the same; when DW gets tired or wants to sleep in I head off solo while she's back at the room. There are rides I do that she doesn't; she may head to a quiet bench or gift shop. I like to do commando park days, she doesn't do as well as I do on limited sleep! I'd love it if we always wanted to do the same thing, but that simply isn't reality and we work around it. Doing some things on our own has made us both a lot happier on our trips!
