I'm jealous of my husband because I have never had the runner's high! I hope to eventually though!

I am SO TORN on whether or not to do the half again or try the full. I am doing the Wine and Dine and just do not know if my schedule will allow me the training time needed to do the full the right way. DECISIONS!!!!!!

Actually- we still have a HUGE Mardi Gras here that draws a TON of tourists who want something a little less crowded and with more of a family friendly atmosphere. I was born and raised in NOLA and LOVE the one here a lot more. It is basically all of the pageantry of the NOLA one without the...

We were there at the same time and yes many leave Louisiana and Mobile, AL for Mardi Gras break. We live in Mobile. I was amazed at how many of my kids' classmates were there as well. It was like the Baker High School reunion. It was great becuase my two teens got to spend time with their...

If you keep the current trip booked, make sure you upgrade your passes to annual passes while you can so that you do not lose out and then once you sign and join DVC, you only expenses for your next few trips will be food. That is if you are like us and go several times a year. We signed up...

We arrive that morning but it is just too much this trip. We are bringing friends who have never been to Disney PLUS celebrating me turning the BIG 4-0!!!

I have two Disney rooms and there are pics on a thread here somewhere......not sure how to go back and search????

We leave Friday too! SOOOO looking forward to going home for Mardi Gras and my 40th birthday!!!!!:sohappy:

If only this event didn't conflict with my Hubby's Mardi Gras parade we would have been there! Maybe next year will be different!

What were the prices last year? I am so excited! I need to get us registered and get our DVC resort booked! Still a bit nervous about the night run though.....but plenty of time to train for that aspect of it all.

My must-haves: Boom Boom Pow- Black-Eyed Peas The 20 minute long version of Tapestry of Nations- that was my favorite parade ever- tapestry of dreams at EPCOT There are also a few 80'd tunes that really get me pumped up too!

Good point!

Congrats to you too!!!
