I think we need a little fluff :)

1. Have you/Will you decorate(d) for the fall?

2. Have you started any Holiday shopping yet?

3. What is one food (or drink) that you look forward to when the weather gets cooler?

Bonus (it was a discussion at work yesterday and wondered others opinions):
4. If you were able to have an inheritance for your children (or maybe you have already experienced this with your own family), and you were able to live comfortably and was not relying on that money to survive, would you rather spend the money while you are alive and watch your children enjoy the money now or would you rather have it given to them when you died?

If you stay on Disney property, there's no tolls to get into any of the parks if you bring your car. We just showed a guest card.

A "tour" meal? No, it was an excursion and they offered lunch at the restaurant on the beach, not a restaurant chain, not owned by the cruise ship. A local restaurant that the public is welcome to eat at all year long.
We have eaten at Senor Frogs which was a blast but not our first choice. We have eaten at local eateries in Bermuda. I have eaten at local places on Anguilla. Local places in Hawaii.

Nah...it was from childhood experience, how I experienced Disney and now into adulthood I like it better that way.

I don't understand why it's good for you to save, by having a prepackaged plan, but when others save, by doing it in a way that works for them (cooking some of their own meals) you think it's a problem, and not something that you would bother with.

I am not familiar at all with how "meal packages" work, but how can you know exactly how much you saved? If you hadn't bought the meal package, how do you know what you would have paid at the restaurants where you ate? Did you keep a running list of how much each of your meals would have cost if you had paid individually for them? I guess I don't understand this concept b/c I've never pre-selected restaurants when going on vacation. Dh and I decide where to go based on whatever cuisine we are craving on any given night.

you only pay that once - when you move your car to a different park on the same day you don't pay - and since we got our entire week in the condo for less than $500 it wasn't that big a deal to me to pay - and our AAA parking passes practically put us at the bus stop as it was (or at the very entrance to the TTA - which I think is part of the fun- taking the monorail or boat to and from the MK is delightful)

I did the research, reviewed the restaurants, prices, meals, etc and it was not a good deal, so no.

Oh, ok. We only had a rental car once and that was over 17 years ago so I can't remember back that far-lol!! I might be thinking when we drove over to Universal and all the times we stayed in FL but drove in on our own.
