I’m not sure, but I’d imagine the cabins would be included because they have their own parking spot. It is strange that it only says “campsites”.
I am thinking they just mean campers, not the cabins. If you have an RV or a tent and gear, then you need to have a vehicle with you. The cabins are basically a room. And at the moderate rate, that would be $19 per night. So, if you park your car, and rent one of those golf carts...Then you are racking up a bit of a bill. Good for Disney, not so good for the customer.

Walked past a Balinese fisherman this morning, he looked so picturesque.

I visited a water temple since it is day 1 of a 6 day celebration of Balinese new year. Today is the day for purification so I had hoped there would be some activity at the temple but there was none while we were there. It did mean I could take some pictures without disturbing people.

The cat on this shrine was creepy and kept giving me the evil eye.

After the temple we went to a cafe to cool down. They clearly had used the internet to translate their menu so it was a challenge to decipher. My mom was boring/ smart and ordered a coke. I ordered something that was impossible to understand on the menu from the drinks page. This is what I got:joyfull:

It was shaved ice with Apple, watermelon, jelly balls, syrup and condensed milk. It was actually very nice except for the jelly balls.
Those jelly balls look like something that would be in bubble tea.

Thank you!! There's going to be a gigantic street festival going on while we're there, so a lot of those places will have food carts too! And we have dinner reservations for my mom's birthday at some fancy place with a dress code. Antoine's. Antonio's. Something like that....
I hear it is a really good restaurant. My SIL and her family lives in NOLA. DH and DS will be there next week for DS's spring break. They have a lot of live music to catch. And the really good beignets (sp) are at City Park.

Lol, no worries. My dad was an engineer for Seagate when i was growing up, and he made decent money without having gone to college. Which was great for us because it put food on the table and taught us the value of hard work. But he spent my entire childhood ranting about MBAs and how they were the devil because they just come out of college and get leadership roles and run everything into the ground. Obviously Seagate is still doing okay, though, lol. I didn't take the post personally, is what I'm saying. I think there's likely a generational divide when it comes to things like MBAs. When i was young, only rich kids seemed to pursue them but now most of us need them in order to get ahead or even to stay competitive at our current levels. Times have changed. But thank you for the compliments :inlove::inlove:

What he's saying is that it's sad that Disney is focusing on the business model and the bottom line instead of the guest experience and the magic. And i agree with that. It's sad to see so many fans decide to not go back.

Hahaaa...!
I knew you'd get it!
And, I don't think that about all MBAs, just most of the ones currently at or near the top of TWDC.
As a matter of fact, if I were on the Board of Directors of TWDC, you'd be exactly the kind of MBA I'd want to be running the show...you get the Magic! You'd be able to take care of all the business aspects, and still remember the roots of the company and why it became so well-known, well-respected, and loved in the first place, way back in the day...you get it...!!! :)

Also, the best of luck in your pursuit of that MBA...we're ALL rooting for you...!!!!!!!!!!! :happy::)
