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?

Yes, of course. But why would I pay twice for my meals? Why pay for all-inclusive if I"m just going to go off-site to eat? That's financial stupidity.

If you really wanted to try something different off the premises, then you could. It is not something you can't do though because you are all-inclusive. I do know one all-inclusive that there are 3 restaurants alone in the hotel and I know other ones you can go to different restaurants off the premises and it is still all-inclusive.

Ours was for all but alcoholic drinks. AGain, we could have chosen to eat somewhere not covered by the cruise charge, but that's not very financially smart, so we only did so when we were in-port.

Soda is not included either on a cruise. I think it is just water, ice tea, lemonade and some juices at breakfast. Also, the prices of the restaurants are a huge cut of what it would cost on land and are premium compared to the regular dining room and buffet. Doing one or two is not going to break the bank, IMO as I save for extras for vacations.

Yep and you can try so many different things when you go on vacation.

I never had to compromise because there has never been a time that we could go with extended family on vacation together, so far.

But, it's still Disney World, it's really not a variety of places, it's one place.

Oh, stop it, you will love it-lol!!! :)
It is really not as bad as people envision it to be. It is more like a city on sea, not restrictive and tons of things to do AND you do get off-lol!!
