Still have not booked our F&W trip yet but have discussed the dates more with Bob, leaning towards early Nov for the cooler temps hopefully will just have to avoid the last weekend as I know the crowds at F&W are crazy with it also being Veteren's Day. Poly is still #1, CR TPV is under consideration

It started snowing here about 8am and everything is already covered praying the power stays on.

Everyone in Nemo's path stay safe and warm

Sheila I remembered that Shawn's anniversary is next week , we are here for you my friend...
Be safe and warm too... so hope you don't lose power...we are getting rain and more rain .... supposed to be sleet at times, but our area is not getting hit with the snow accumulations... only up to 4 inches.

Janet: Your suggestion to have Pas tell her DH about the December trip on Dec. 1st...

Janet has wonderful ideas... Or maybe I can tell him after I buy him a LapuLapu...he LOVES those

I will try to get a good HRH pic Tuesday night

Sounds fun!!!

I am in a work funk myself....I just keep swimming, just keep swimming

I (for today) am OK with not being CL...we really don't need it...

It's Jersey Week!! Kids are off Tues, Thurs & Fri...andI plan to head home BEFORE the weekend (although depending on the 1st MVMCP...I MAY add a night)

I remember one of our best ever trips was Jersey week. We had planned for F&W and of course Halloween party but then wait .... my grandson and I figured out if we only added on another couple of days it was time for the Christmas party!!! And that's how our trip became 18 days!!! Is it any surprise that this is the grandson who is now a CM at WDW?!?!

At the moment it's Universal vs YC Cl and Universal won. I will never say never to Cl. I still have 2 months to make money and change my mind multiple times.

I looked and it would save me bunches to switch to Universal either RPR or HRH CL...but not exactly a good home base for WDW

Quoted the wrong message but yes I am going to run a few numbers and see which is best. We are going for 4 or 5 days in Nov so you could be right about the AP's.

Pas, remember your mantra .... Can't wait to find out last MNSSHP, and is Sam is off Mon/Tues. We need to set up lunch or dinner, to get you out of your funk!!

Miss, was thinking Pas could say she was just coming to stay with me a few days....although I do like Pas' suggestion that she get up to go to work and head to the airport instead...

Since I've decided that a spring trip is just out of the question (too much puppy training going on) I've been checking on a little trip for DH and I .... and maybe DD too. Sounds like a good week for you and Bob too!

Mama Linda!!

My mom called and I told her what was going on over here, and she said "You are so lucky". And she is right! Messes don't matter.

Jen, you have your priorities straight... it's why my house is always messy!! Enjoy the day with your girls!

So happy for HRH too!! ... And Pas, I can't carry a tune either... Get pix of our royal highness!

I haven't done that in a long time. 6 days without the alarm clock going off at 4:30am. I can't wait.

Like both your BG or Space Center ideas... And a little me time is just what the doctor (or nurse ) ordered!

Me too...my DD always say.. Mom are you crying?? I'm just a sap.

And you are the perfect candidate!! Will email you dates...

Excellent!! Does he know about it yet??

Sheila, you are so often in my thoughts and prayers. Yes, Shawn's day will be here quite soon. I pray this coming week passes moderately and with grace. And remember, we are all here for you.

BOTH!!! I am a Granny wannabe after all

[jennyjinx3]

so if we were to get PH for both of our trips (not sure if we would), by buying AP we would come out ahead by about $110.

There is danger in this plan though, camping week in July would turn into WDW instead!!

Just jumping in here really quickly. The AP discount is a tad better (I think 5% more?) then the GP discount for Spring, so that may hep your calculations! Plus I've heard there will be a ticket price increase coming soonish which would affect your Nov trip ticket cost.

We buy tickets from UT at a decent discount and then upgrade them so there is a savings to be had there too. Usually 2 trips (especially with hoppers) makes APs worth doing. Then you could even do another trip next May with no ticket cost
