    1st time at Beach Club-have a couple of questions

    We're staying in a BC studio lock off in December with our granddaughters. I know space is going to be at a premium, unlike the one bedroom at AKL on our last trip. Looking at the resort map, the diagram seems to indicate some of the studios are larger than others. Is there actually a size...

    Trip with grandparents - your experiences / advice?

    I read this with interest as my husband (AKA Papa) and I (aka Grammie) are taking 4 of our granddaughters (ages 15, 14, 12, and 9)to WDW in July 2021 without their parents. We didn't even consider inviting their parents as they'd never be able to keep up the pace for 10 days and they'd be...

    Families of 5+, Where do you stay/own?

    We stayed at AKV in a one bed with five in January. It was lovely and we had plenty of space. My son owns at BLT, so that's where they stay, sometimes in a one bed, sometimes in a two bed, depending on how many points they currently have. I stayed at BLT in a studio once, with just one three...

    Have you ever been banned from anywhere?

    I was banned from my parent's home for almost 15 years. Does that count?

    8th grade graduation gift?

    I graduated from 8th grade in 1964, 53 years ago, so it's certainly nothing new. We had caps and gowns, a Valedictorian, a keynote speaker, the band played Pomp and Circumstance, etc. Many kids had graduation parties afterward.

    Clairol Natural Instincts Hair Color

    I used to use Natural Instincts regularly and it's very gentle. I wouldn't hesitate to use it more often than every six weeks. The last time i tried it, though, it didn't cover any of the gray at my temples, not one bit.

    Spinoff: How old were YOU the first time you went to Disney World (or Disneyland, etc)?

    I was 48 the first time I went to Walt Disney World and 66 when I went to Disneyland. I was 44 when DH and I got married and had never really vacationed anywhere at all up until then. My parents never took vacations and my ex thought they were a waste of money unless they involved visiting family.

    Southwest opening flights on May 18th.......................

    I need a flight to FLL on Jan 4 and when I checked this morning one way was right around $200. I'm waiting. Last year I booked my January flights to MCO on opening day and the price went down by half by the time we traveled.

    Do you have a large master bathroom?

    American Foursquare here. One bathroom-upstairs. Also one bedroom with no closet, although at one time it was common for all bedrooms to be closetless and people used wardrobes. Still do in much of Europe. I have no counters near my stove and less than two feet of counter space on either...

    S/O What age did/will your kid get their first phone?

    I bought my 9 y/o granddaughter an Android smartphone for her 9th birthday in February. I will probably get her younger sister one for her 8th birthday in December. Right now she just has an iPad. The 11 y/o has had a phone for several years now.

    Do you have a large master bathroom?

    Mine was built 100 years ago. I'm lucky it even has a bathroom. We have four bedrooms, one bath. Pedestal sink, claw foot tub. We put a shower in the basement. But you should see my kitchen. It's even more basic than my bathroom lol

    Charging guests for a wedding after party

    I don't mind any kind of registry the happy couple chooses to have, as I'm giving them cash anyway.So if they want to use the money for their honeymoon, or to pay the caterer, or to pay next month's rent it's all the same to me. I have attended quite a few showers in restaurants though, and...

    National Food Drive today may 13

    In our area the bags aren't being picked up by the carrier who is delivering the mail. It's being done by volunteers/off duty mail carriers. So it doesn't get picked up the same time as the mail gets delivered.

    National Food Drive today may 13

    We never give anything we already have. We just go to the store and purchase items specifically for our food bag. I hate when people just donate crap they don't like or don't want any more.

    Charging guests for a wedding after party

    No,lol. She didn't really have to. Everyone there pretty much knows how much everyone else is making. They don't pay anyone anything extra for experience or less because you're new, so if you know how much one person in the job classification makes you know them all. I wasn't even aware she...
