Hi Everyone, it's been a few years since I've been on the site. I changed my name from RedNoseMickey to 12in12.
I'm finally planning a trip to Disney again so decided to come back to the site. I really missed it.

I miss the discount store where you could buy a year's worth of chocolate with a week's allowance just because the labels were crooked

Never been to Hershey, but your description of the budget-priced candy with the off-center labels, reminded me of something similar.

When I was a kid, there was a cookie company in the town. My mother used to drive over there once a week and buy "broken" cookies in a bag, for cheap. (We were a family of 6, so she was a savvy bargain hunter.) When I was about 7, I was embarrassed to bring broken cookies in my lunch box to school. (None of the other kids had broken cookies. ) So, I begged her to buy whole cookies, to spare me the humiliation of my classmates seeing any broken ones! P.S.: Whole cookies were not bought, but she switched my dessert over to a piece of fruit instead.

Clouds rolled in again (hopefully some rain will too), so the last highs I posted were it for the day…!!!

Welcome back! When are you planning another Disney trip? And curious any reason behind the name change?

I stand corrected. Flights in and out of there seem to change all the time since forever. and yes the airport sucks one and done!

Yeah it was mostly the airline I had a problem with. Allegiant is known to be terrible and my grandma is obviously elderly. My grandma agreed with me on Allegiant being terrible. I think my aunt was trying to get her a flight directly into Myrtle Beach and Southwest at the time didn't have one from BWI. I would have preferred she just go down to Charleston and ride up with my aunt. Southwest of course has that route now. Southwest has all the routes out of BWI. If they don't have it out of BWI, highly unlikely someone else does, save for international routes.

Welcome back. Enjoy yourself at Disney when the trip happens.

Thanks for the warm welcome back everyone.
@ajrwdwgirl I do have a tripped planned for January 2024, I'm in the early stages of planning but I have booked my flights and hotel.
The name change is to get ready for 2025 when (hopefully) I'll visit all 12 parks in 12 months.
