    Campers, y’all are not going to believe this

    From what I understand, Stormalong Bay also requires a wristband. I think that is a pretty good stopgap measure in concept. But I don't think it eliminates if the pool playdates just wait for someone to open the gate and they funnel in? Otherwise, I think SB has a lifeguard/CM that is...

    Campers, y’all are not going to believe this

    All revenue left on the table is lost revenue. I think they would rather capture as much of the audience as they can.

    Campers, y’all are not going to believe this

    If they required a scan to confirm an ADR and/or staying at a resort from DS via bus, then they would have lost us as locals who investigate the resorts before committing to a DVC rental and/or WDW resort stay. The DS busses provide us a means to determine which resort(s) are appealing and ones...

    Stressful Computer Games

    Then came the rash of first-person shooter games. At one point, I could handle them. And then a popular game got released called Doom. Within seconds, my body would get nauseous and take minutes to recover. I have no problem when I played the sniper-style games, but it's a no-go for me on...

    Hot Tub

    We went with a local store with what we felt was a solid manufacturer. We poured our own pad and selected an area with good access to our electrical panel knowing a dedicated, higher amp run was needed. Delivery of the concrete truck was easy (wheel barrels are nice) and then, after curing...

    slo’s TUESDAY 4/30 poll - Whipped Cream vs Cool Whip

    Other: I think there is a sugar free version of Cool Whip. We'll opt for that on very rare occasions.

    Official APH Rate Info for Universal Loews Hotel Properties

    I think parking was $18/night then too. They tried to charge me $21/night this past January, but I was already booked under the previous term(s) and they honored the difference.

    Official APH Rate Info for Universal Loews Hotel Properties

    Depends on a couple of things: Florida resident discount and early January. I've gotten $119/night this past January which is usually the lowest I can get without an AP.

    Daily showers are purely ‘performative’ and have no real health benefit, experts insist

    I won't say I haven't missed a day (e.g. illness), but I'm a daily shower person. What I do is take really short showers at home (<3 minutes) and take extended showers at my gym; I also shave (cordless electric) in the shower.

    slo’s MONDAY 4/29 poll - Buying Clothes On Amazon 👚👖

    Nope. It seems to me a risk of size/comfort and I don't want to deal with a return.

    What unwanted things regularly get into your outdoor space of your home?

    I'm currently playing a real-life version of whack-a-mole. This varmint is defeating my liquid repellents and now grub/insect killer granules. I just ordered a scissor trap as a last resort; I just him/her to leave on it's own.

    slo’s FRIDAY 4/26 poll - Weekend Movie 🎥 🍿

    I'm a creature of habit. Older movies, at home and infrequently. I mostly watch YT vids on the television of the latest news tidbits, etc.

    Axe Deodorant

    Did Axe have some of their sprays changing scents or was that a different brand? Maybe it was React.

    Best way to get to Yacht Club from SSR?

    Well, you could take the boat from SSR to DS and then walk to the bus to YC. It really depends on room location at SSR. I sure miss the DS dock next to Jock Lindsey's being open.

    First Time Staying Onsite at a Non-DVC Property

    I have scheduled another stay at this resort in a few weeks. I am going to check-in at the front desk and inform them of what happened a few weeks ago. I want to give them a chance at redemption and as I said before, the room and Skyliner/location are wonderful for my needs. I will report...
