Oh yes! Lots of pics to come.

Thank you in advance!

By the pool and fitness room Not in room. Basket a nice touch. As is free hot breakfast.

Disney could learn a lot from the Marriott chain. We always find them a step above the other's of this caliber.

Good morning @JenniferS , how is life treating you?

It is now that all the rain has finally stopped...for weeks...

Our area has been drier too. It dries out quickly, we could use a little rain, and some is to roll in today. I hope.

One of the first movies my kids saw on VHS. Classic. I never tire of Mary Poppins.

I agree, it's full of great music and dancing. Dick Van is great in his role as the Chimney Sweep.

Life is good.
Just got back from the bank, buying the last USD funds for our trip.
$417-something for an even $300 U.S. UGH!!

Is that bad?

 

[JenniferS]

Is that bad?

Yes. A couple of years ago I could buy $300 U.S. for less than $295 CAD.

So, take the price you are paying for your upcoming WDW trip, and then add more than a third in exchange. That's what Canadians are currently paying.

Sympathy like, a hug and some pixie dust heading north! xoxo

Our new neighbors seem to be moving in across the road. Both cars have Texas plates. Wonder how they found our little Hamlet. 92 degrees on move in day shouldn't bother them.

Nope, probably didn't bother them one bit.

It's supposed to 103 here today.

Welcome to the Industrial Age.

I thought this was the information age...?

Head on down!
We'll just kick a kid to the curb...!!!

They need to be more cautious with that exchange rate. After all, we are relying on your trips across the border to balance our federal budget. Have I thanked you for that in the past? If not... Thanks!

I hope you have a very sturdy bed.

I haven't seen it yet.

go see it, it is very entertaining.. but it takes time to understand the character.

OK here are digs out in corn country, Marriott. Less than a value room at Disney.
They have some real nice triple sheeted bedding and all the pillows are a different type..
The one photo of the lights above the nightstand have 2 outlets and 2 charging stations. The table has 2 double outlets electric outlets. The room is filled with outlets and charging stations, would be so cool at Disney

seems like those deluxe DVC's.. but cheaper than a value?

Also, question.. how far is this hotel from Disney Parks?
Unless I'm confused? because I have no idea what is "out in corn country"

Exchange rates can be brutal. Are you going soon to Disney? I'm counting down to the last "fall" trip for us. Taking the boys during fall break!

We will be there 8/22 - 9/1.
Depending what device you are using, you should be able to see my countdown at the bottom of my signature.

Hubby and I will be in one King room; Son #2 and his girlfriend in a separate King room. I specifically requested NON-ADJOINING rooms.
