What's the title, who's the author, etc....?

I have a lot of Disney coffee table books, I favor the early addition ones like this one. Some from Ebay but that one in particular is from the half price used book store, $8. A find.

Reminds me of @StarWarsGirl Belle

And also, Belle hates water. She likes to follow me into the bathroom and sometimes likes to jump in the bathtub. So one night she followed me in there and jumped in...only I was getting ready to take a bath and the bathtub was full. Needless to say, what ensued was both sad and hysterical.

The way I understand it is if her father retired from the AF he can reserve up to 3 rooms but must be there at check in. I also believe the widow/er has the same rights.

Oh my. Wish we would have thought of that back on our June of '13 trip. FIL passed well over a decade ago, but, MIL was with us on that trip and still receives full military benefits, but, has only been the one time, so knows nothing of SOG.
She wants to go back in the next couple of years, so thanks for the info...!!! :)

Well, with the Disney announcements today I was a little busy. Since our trip in March is really just a long weekend, I was able to adjust my plan and I got a reservation for a Rivers of Light dining package for lunch (at 3:05) and breakfast. Now I just have to decide which one to go with, they are both on the same day. I wasn't able to get fast passes, so dinning package will have to do. Plus I'm pretty excited there will be a new MK fireworks show this summer, so I'm thankful I will have one last chance to see Wishes.

I look forward to your review of Rivers. Sadly when anything is hyped as much as this has been and for as long as it has been there is a very high bar. The CMs reviews on previous previews have been mixed with A+ on certain aspects and Meh on other executions. Reminds me of the hype of FLE, nice a good addition however not a grand slam. If it is going to cost guests a meal to experience...if they can even get that I'm sure that will weigh into the overall planning of capacity review. That River is Big and Long, I road it the day the park opened.

The exit of Wishes is the bigger news to me. Rumored for several years but with the Iger budget cuts of the last few years it was an easy slash for stock holders. And on that note from a bean counters standpoint it is an amazing Chess move. That area had 3 events every evening. A parade, Projection Show and Fireworks. Cut the night parade and consolidate the the projection and Fireworks. They trimmed the cost of all the preformers for the parade and support staff surrounding the parade route. Now they just cut in half the hours of the support staff for the projection and fireworks boots on the ground support staff into a 18 minute show. So at the very best an evening of expenses has dwindled to an hour of support show staff. Brilliant cost cutting measures. Me, I look forward to another fireworks show at the MK. Wishes was nice, still Disney has kept it around since 2003, it is time. Now I wait to see what Illuminations will bring and if AK, the Studios or Epcot ever bring back a parade as they are cost heavy.

Rain ponchos in WDW are both a good and bad idea. I've bought the ones that they sell in the parks, and once the rain storm is over--I don't feel like lugging them around. So I end up dumping them. Also, sometimes it's so humid down there that I'd rather get soaked from the rain, than sweat buckets under plastic in the high humidity.

My only gripe is that the newest ponchos are crap quality wise. They rip apart so easily.
There was a huge difference in my fist trip vs the last trip ponchos (2013 vs 2016).
You could rehuse the 2013 versions a few times.. 2016 feels disposable single use only.

Too Funny!

I'm laughing just imagining Belle. My long past female golden had a similar stunt. She too for whatever reason liked to bounce in an out of tub. My DD, her favorite and a preschooler was in the tub, which meant water unbenounced to Pup. She ran in from the hallways joined DD in the tub, split second exited and what I had was a toddler laughing and me with a soaked bathroom and 3 wet rooms outside the bathroom as she ran everywhere until I got her outside.
Good memories.
