Yes I am new, I don't have a DIs Dad#. How do I get a hold of Cinderella's Fella to join?

Don't worry, he'll find you very soon.

In the meantime,

Just a word of warning. Some people here will try to convince you that dues are you have to buy Dole whips for everyone. And that's completely correct.

Hot, blazing hot and how quick can we get to the next AC location?

You should buy one of these fancy air conditioning units:

I was hoping to get everyone a pound of Bacon....

That works as well. Send 860(or so) lbs of bacon to me and I'll make sure to get their share out to the other guys.
No really, I will.
Instead of check's in the mail, bacon's in the mail.

Kinda like you need this fancy heating unit?

 

[docsoliday1]

Never tell me the odds.

It had to be snakes. I hate snakes.

Morning folks. Dreary day up here. But rain is better than snow, I suppose.

40 hogs are in transport to you, hope you have a sharp knife. Let me know if you need help slicing the bacon.

Welcome to our online happy place. Pull up a chair, pour your favorite beverage and join in the conversation.

For you guys that do cruises, did you all do the drink packages? The way I'm calculating it, it is $51 a day per adult person for alcohol package. So, let's go with $100. Drinks are carp beer $5 to super premium $13. I'll go with better beer and mojitos, but you know, am open to drinking most anything. DW won't drink as much as me. But, if I go an average of $9 a drink, then 11 drinks a day between two people makes it a break even. I'm thinking that less than one an hour is not much of a challenge. Am I missing something?

You're too new for classic DisDad effort. Are you DVC? Kidani? Jambo? Studio or bigger? ADRs? I guess your outside FP+ window still, but you can add those later. Park plan? Every day or alternating days? C'mon man!!! But, two weeks is awesome. We have never made it past 10 days, which included 3 at VBR.

That's better.

Good to see you are back to the cigars!

We did a 10-night stay a few years back, all at BCV. (That was our first trip on the new DVC points, and we had to try them out...) We ended up doing every day in the parks to some degree, but a couple of them were casual "let's just pop into Epcot for Illuminations". (Even after the day we went to Universal.)

We're going back to 8-night stays - 10 was a bit much.

Our home resort is BWV, and we've stayed at all the Florida dvc resorts except VGF. We originally did parks every day, but now we just do them every other day. My goal is to retire to Florida, get APs, and go as often as possible.

Staying at Jambo in a Studio Savanna View on rented DVC points. Have ADR's at BOGx3, Coral Reef, Chef Mickey's, T-Rex, Boma ,Sanna, FantasylandEMM and Toy Story Emm. Parks every day except on the two Saturday's, doing those at resort and Disney Springs. Going to MK x4, AK x3, Epcot x2 and HS and a DAH. Plan to RD most days then see what the day brings. Hoping to get Fast passes for FOP and SDD as we have never done these.

I'm guessing that that price you are talking about Carnival. Don't forget the 15% gratuity on top of that.

We've never purchased it but may consider it on the next cruise. One of the drawbacks is that of your cruise has a lot of port days it cuts down on the drinking time.

That's a lot of days and some great ADRs. Been to all of them. I was disappointed by BOG, but I guess the only better MK TS option would be the Plaza or buffet it at CP. We missed SDD opening this last trip, so we will have to wait until next time.

Yes, that's carnival. I didn't put in gratuity, because i figured it would be added as a whole or individually. Can you not stay on the ship to eat & drink when the ship ports?
