Figured out how to drop that 8 am Finance course that I really did not want to take and take something else on a different day that is not an 8 am. So now I start at 9:20 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I did this because I'm taking Spanish Tuesdays and Thursdays at another local college, so I'm between 3 campuses those days (both campuses at my school plus the other college), so that's a lot of commuting, and it would have meant starting at 8 am and finishing at 4:45. I'm in college; I don't need to do that in my life yet. So instead, I will be starting at 9:20 am and finishing at 4:45 pm.

Still relevant

I love Puss in Boots. My favorite Shrek character.

But you probably knew that.

I want to click my red ruby shoes saying there is no place like Florida, there is no place like Florida, there is no place like Florida.

A week and a half for me

Give or take a few degrees we are right with you in the frozen tundra and it is to only get worse over the next few days.

really wishing they could install such cool monorails in WDW.

Sadly, the pics don't really show how thick/pretty the ice is.

We've actually had many ice storms over the years down here. The ice is, indeed, gorgeous covering everything. Not so much when the all that weight starts bringin' branches down...

 

[Cesar R M]

In other news.. today is particularly and very strangely windy!

 

[Cesar R M]

Don't be mean.

hey.. a lot of guys rub it on our faces when they are in WDW
let me flaunt about my weather at least

 

[donaldtoo]

Well they loved Imitation Game you can add that one for the weekend after. They said in a heartbeat they'd see it again.

I need to put that flick on my list, too. Although it was a highly fictionalized account, I remember liking "Enigma" from 2002. This one is said to be much more fact-based.

 

[donaldtoo]

You probably can't tell us who he is but I am dying to know! I have an idea...

No biggie.
He's the starting center for the Cardinals.
Was that who you were thinkin' of...?

That's good to know that the system worked for you. I think the negative reviews I've read over the years were also were connected to the internal bus system only. Don't recall whether it was during high season or not, when guests complained about the long waits.

It may also be that Disney addressed the issue; and when you stayed there, they might have upgraded the service. Glad to hear that people don't have to rent those little carts or have a car if they stay at FW. That would be a deal-breaker for me, if that was the case.

One reason why WDW works so well for me is because I rely 100% of their transportation; I don't want to rent a car. I've rented years ago when it wasn't quite so manic on the roads down there (I've stayed in the Hotel Plaza cluster of hotels, as well as over in 192 in Kissimmee, and few times up in Orlando). At this point, I'm too scared to even think of navigating myself around in a car down there, with all the heavy traffic and unfamiliar roads, etc.

Same here. We've only used Disney Transportation, and, we prefer it that way.

Plus no parking fee is always good

I'm hoping you didn't find my trip pics/updates to be rubbing it in your face.
And for the record, I would happily trade temps with you today.

We ALWAYS rent a car. It's all about the freedom, for us.

I like Merida the best. Us redheads gotta stick together.

So apparently CNN made a video if the world ever ended. It was made in the 80s.

Except we go to WDW for a limited time, and then we are back to our normal routine,mwhich often involves cold weather

You on the other hand never get cold weather, so for the months when we're cold, you're warm. And then like the rest of us, you'll go to WDW. I believe you are going in February, and you'll get to flaunt it then

I was actually more envious of the deliciousness you posted.


Anyway, one month until I go to WDW myself. I will purchase the tickets as soon the USD dollar lowers itself. (the Mexican peso.. thanks to our inept president.. lost 20% value compared to the USD)

Also, I hope my new camera will be there waiting for me.

She was my favorite on my first visit ever.

Pretty sure you guys and gals seen my picture with her. Pretty sure I posted a report somewhere in the forum with a happy face.

well.. in my defence.. we get TOASTY weather on summer (40C++), pesky hurricanes and earthquakes

Thanks to lower crude prices, the CAD is also in a free-fall, as compared to the USD.

Remember how I said our Florida condo purchase depended on the CAD holding around the 90 cent mark?
Yeah, well now it's at 84 cents.

Good for our exporters and manufacturing sector. Not so good for @JenniferS.
