We would not have been able to afford it, otherwise.

I would not have been able to go. As it was I had stashed Birthday and Christmas money I had received as gifts and my clients Christmas Gifts. That pretty well covered the hotel and dining plan. I had briefly considered a deluxe because it would have been fun and way cheaper than usual but I had a reality check quickly. lol. Plus with 6 touring days, the resort was mostly a place to fall into bed in the wee hours of the morning.

Just another reason I'm glad I'm not a coffee drinker, in the first place!

The first thing I do is drink a cup in the morning. DH has never woken me without coffee prepared. It isn't pretty. That was the hardest part about my Disney trip. The hotel coffee is really, really bad in the room and the quick service isn't any better. The Joffrey Coffee is good at the parks but much to long to be awake without caffeine.

[HauntedGabe]

You and Gabe too? Wow!
I'd have to go back and check, but I don't think we've hit 100 yet this year?
By this time last year, we'd already had several 100+ degree days.

It was miserable here today. The dew point and humidity were way up.

[HauntedGabe]

Gabe and I are pretty close to each other location-wise, I think, so that's why.

Yep, depending on how the lake wind is directing the storm, what I get, she gets within an hour or two depending on the force of the wind.

Quick little update... Still have not met up with Sarah. It's kind hard. Yesterday I went to ucf and fall in love with it even more. Mom and dad liked it also. This morning I got my senior pictures taken at Epcot. It was so great. I can't wait to see them. If you are doing everything with Disney Professinal Phofltography request Ty. He is amazing. I hope everyone has a great rest of the week.

I am so excited to you got to visit UCF!!! Happy Dance that you loved it and your parents are on board!

Same for me. I feel so overly spoiled this year for having booked my 3rd vacation of the year (something that will probably never happen again)...but couldn't pass up the deals that I got. We have been wanting to do DL for forever but going that far away is just so expensive, I don't know when it would've ever ended up happening if we couldn't use the perks. We're so fortunate to have been able to do that, and then turn around and have the perks that my sister will be able to offer once she gets down there.

Nate and I discovered a coffee place around here with TONS of different kinds of coffee. I found the Hawaiian coconut and now there is no going back for me.

We also have a butter rum flavored one right now, which is also very good. And Nate likes to try the kinds from other countries- so far we have done Kenya and Columbia. He is set on getting a bag of Kona from the Poly in August.

That gives you some great gift ideas though. There are some fabulous, and high end coffees, and some of them are great.

i would probably avoid the guano coffee Gabe mentioned several weeks back-the animal poo one.

They have some coffee that are about $34ish a pound.

Try the Hilton at DTD. Disney allows them extra magical hours now

No, I stopped looking as of Wednesday, last week, I will look again later today. Summer season is just crazy high this year, even MouseFan says the prices have increased dramatically.

I will figure something out. Even if it means waiting til fall break-in mid October.

By this time last year, we'd already had several 100+ degree days.

Just saw a news warning of a dangerous heat wave about to hit Conn. and areas around it, temps near or at (or over) 100 for a few days in a row.

Seems the upper midwest thru the upper northeast is getting BLAZED this summer.

It is a great school, but most parents get a little freaked if they EVER learn about the parties. LOL.

Okay, no one here. I will go check Gabe's trip report and sign off.


Have a great day, all.
