No, I'm all booked, but it was PRICEY. I went in December for 97 per person round trip!

Airfare prices perplex me. We live near a large hub and it STILL costs a fortune usually to go anywhere!

Us too. I booked in Feb last year and got $117 RT from Philly to Orlando. This year couldn't get leass than $200. HAven't checked yet, but I am sure they have gone up becasue all the airlines are startin to add a fuel cost:sad2:

BTW - What day are you getting into Pop?
 
Air fare prices are getting scarey:scared1: I won't see 132 or 152 roundtrip again:sad2:
 


What confuses me is this: How come they are adding the fuel charge NOW? I mean, haven't they been forcasting this oil/gas price issue for like 2 years now? They could have added it in small increments over the last 2 years instead of raising them all at once!

But, I totally don't get big business! :confused3




We are arriving at PoP on Aug 22. I have never stayed there. Since it's just the DH and myself, I am not too worried about the usual things...pools, entertainment for kiddos, variety at the buffet, size of rooms....etc.

I just want a clean (bug free please) bed, a toilet that works and somewhere to get a glass of wine at the end of a day.

I'm easy! :rotfl:

22nd is a Friday right? We plan on being at the Pool most of the day and then we are heading to Beaches & Cream and then EPcot for the evening. Epcot has EMH that night, but I don't how late we will stay since we will be back at EPCOT the next day, hopefully at rope drop!:thumbsup2

We loved Pop last year. I am a little leary about it this year only becasue my nephew is coming with us and I am not sure about 4 people in the room. 1 more person can make a huge diff..KWIM?

Pop century should meet those needs for ya :thumbsup2 Our family loves it there :woohoo:
 


Yes, I totally KWYM. We tried to share a room with two queens last year at GF. No dice. DH and I NEVER sleep in a Queen at home (King, he's a big dude. 6 foot 5. Not "big" big but TALL) and my DS is 6 ft. 2 inches! Poor other DS was crammed on the "daybed" and we were all crammed together in the others.

Gosh. That was bad!

MEL
 
Near the MK - How about GF Cafe? Or The Wave at CR?
Anyone know if a menu is posted anywhere for the wave?

Ok. I am going to post this here as the whole debaucle started here.
So good to see you again Mel, I'm putting you back on the ADR (well I never took you off) whether you like it or not :rotfl2:

Jo, what about Plaza, it's limited but the shakes are yummy. Or CP dinner, it's supposed to be good.
I'll have a look, thanks :thumbsup2


Please don't moan about flight prices or I'll have to bore you with mine again :rotfl2:
 
Jo, I'm sure your airfare beats ours by a mile! :rolleyes1 And thanks for "putting me back on". I can't wait to meet you guys! It's going to be so much fun.

Now, if I can just talk my mom into coming to watch the boys for those 4 days........:laughing:
Yeah, I didn't do that part yet.....


MEL:banana:
 
Ok, so I don't know why you guys are exchanging shoes?

Can someone tell me please?

Is it so you can wear a mis-matched pair and someone else does too?

???


:confused3

MEL
