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?

I reserve the right to both point/snark *and* make/buy said costumes for any such wannabe Princesses in my family's future :D

All-inclusive's and cruises are the way to go, IMO, especially if you are looking to save money.

Yes, they can be educational, depending on what you do there.



I never said anything about learning about Haiti when I was there, did I?

I disagree. They *can* be a way to save money. Sometimes. But not always. It's just as common to save more money by doing things a la carte. Depends on the day, the deal, the economy and the alignment of the stars.

Bermuda is not the Caribbean. I plan to travel more once my children are older but we also like the Caribbean so I am sure we will continue to take cruises there in the future.

There were so many things in Florida we wanted to do that required Advanced knowledge and planning. Discovery Cove you have to get reservations at least a month in advance and we also got tickets for a spring training baseball game and lunch with an astronaut all of which we could not have done without some advance planning. We still had plenty of time for serendipitous discoveries onsite.

Cruise? Why?

Because we love to cruise.
.
I'd prefer to get skin on the ground. Paris, Rome, Milan, Venice, Athens are not cruise destinations.

BTW - There would be no affordable cruises that do France, Italy, and Greece if you know geography at all.

I think it's the difference between people who feel they are entitled to their parents' money and people who don't. There are plenty of them in my family. Luckily, not in my immediate family. My brothers and I all agree that we would rather my parents spend every dime on themselves.
