I already have POA for my aunt and both my parents in the event any of them are incapacitated (well, my parents each have it first for each other, and then me, but for my aunt, I'm first). Yes, in the case of my aunt, over her own children. I anticipate this may cause drama one day because they don't know that, but if you'd met my cousins, you'd know why I have POA.

I have wayyyy too much power.

I've been to Europe twice. Made it to Lisbon, Portugal, Madrid & Barcelona (and others to numerous to list) Spain, Rome, Pompeii, Florence, Venice and others, Italy, Mostly Paris, France and mostly London, England. In asia other than Saigon and Bien Hoa, So. Vietnam, I got to go to Osaka (1970 World's Fair) and Tokyo, Japan. Canada, of course and Montreal and Toronto. Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island. And Nassau, Bahama.

All in all I am pretty happy with my particular global jet setting and my only regret is not getting to Tokyo Disneyland before I developed old age blood flow problems. About 6 years ago, I didn't take an opportunity. Not bad for a backwoods Vermonter.

I'm guessing Japan was overall more enjoyable than Vietnam...

I had cousins on both sides of the family go this year.

They didn't bring me back anything from TDL

Answer is clearly cats.

I agree

CAts are psychopathic murder furballs that rule the world.

Granted it's not a city like London but my 3 night stay in Bath, England was cheaper than a one night stay in almost every Disney hotel. And it was a 4 star hotel.

Now, the hotel I would love to stay in is the Shangri-La The Shard, London. Disney prices but 5 star hotel and in a major city. Most of their hotels are in Asia. Only one in the Americas.

Airfare is more the issue going to Europe. You can get there from BWI with Icelandair, although I have United's credit card, so I probably would choose them...which would mean a trip down to Dulles. It's between $250-$300 average going to MCO and $300-$350 to California. Europe would depend on where, but anywhere from $500 to $1500, if I'm lucky.

If I'm being honest too, the UK is someplace where I'm like "err, maybe, but not on the top of the list" entirely because of the weather. I'd rather go to Spain and/or France, probably Spain because I speak the language. UK I would definitely have to do in May or June when it's drier and warmer.

And Greece too because apparently they have a lot of stray cats.

We fully decorated the Christmas tree tonight. Mickey also sent us a reindeer plush of himself and new Mickey Christmas pajamas. As for the Christmas party it was fun as always. Nothing super interesting or different than normal happened

Take into account the last time I went to Europe was 10 years ago, I left Raleigh via Air Canada to Toronto. Then took Icelandair from there to Reykjavik, Iceland, transferred to another Icelandair to Paris. At that time and probably now, Icelandair was a great experience, with great service and comfortable. Before making plans for the trip, I had never even heard of Icelandair (I don't get out much) and I can't really explain how nice an experience it was.

Please take me included eggs 50 cents off a dozen I got 9 dozen, the last 2 bunches of leeks, a bushel of apples, potatoes $5 off, the last of the kale 50 cents off each bunch, parsnips were cheaper than last week and onions $5 off a half bushel, got a bushel last week so only got a half. There really wasn't much left, it was cold, light rain and everybody looked like they wanted to go home early. Opening day the day before Easter next year

Are you not with them?

More negative than positive reviews they gave for the Christmas party

I think the only thing she's planning is how to get me to do absolutely nothing.

That, and feeding her.
