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?

And nothing. I was answering her question.

Your posts clearly state that you do not want to compromise location, costs and time.

My question was a yes or no type of question,

Again, it is still Disneyworld or Orlando, Florida not say Anaheim, Ca and going to DisneyLand

If you don't wish to explain the contradiction, I understand.

I don't know about anyone else but many times in those large resorts and on cruises, the food tends to taste about the same in many areas.

To borrow a phrase from you, how so?

I think it depends on where you go honestly and like I said, I'm pretty creative.

I guess I don't understand the continued contradictions on this subject.

Why do you think that is?

we preferred to go with a condo set up and skip the free dining - I find it boring after a while and the crowds tiresome -- we enjoyed our condo where we had leisurely breakfasts each morning on our own huge screen porch -- we'd eat inexpensively for lunch and bring our own snacks and splurge on ice cream ( our must have) we splurged on two really terrific disneydinners (Boma and the spirit of aloha luaa) and had another awesome dinner at Bahama Breeze near our condo - but enjoyed not being tied to the dining plan and having to each a disney restaurants every day.

and I loved having my own cups of coffee in the morning on our porch -- that was heaven

I think you're missing my point. I don't *want* to go on a cruise when I am healthy and can walk and hike. Most of the places at the top of my list are not places where cruises go. I wouldn't enjoy a cruise in my current form of health. It is too limiting and restrictive for *me*. I don't drink, except for an occasional glass of wine. I don't dance. I don't sit in the sun. I don't gamble. I like history and scenery. You can get some scenery on some cruises- I think an Alaskan cruise will be our first- when we can still hike and enjoy the scenery from the boat. But not so much history- unless you take one of the waaay overprices tours sponsored by alumni organizations.

Sell me on a cruise. What do you like about a cruise?
