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 liked the traveling aspect of the cruise I was on up to San Juan (our last port of call). For one, we didn't get nearly as much time in San Juan as we got elsewhere (only 4 hours), and for another as the last port of call on a pretty long cruise by then I was done and ready to go home and get the laundry done.
But otherwise, I enjoyed the traveling part because it indulged my enjoyment of down time (at the pool, awesome sea breezes, all the coffee I could ever want). Heck the only thing I was missing was a sewing machine! LOL. (But I just took up English paper piecing which is all hand work so I'm ready for next time ;)

I don't go completely mental when I travel, I just don't like it and it makes me very anxious.
It's not a diabetic problem.
One point in favor of the Disney meal plan, because I was watching calories while we were there, the meal plan made it much more cost effective. Salads *can* be had throughout the park, but they regularly cost between $6 to $9, even in the quick meal eateries.
Cheaper meals could be had, but they were all pizza, hamburgers, chicken nuggets--terrible in term of nutrition, fat, salt, calories. If you want to eat sensibly in the parks, you're much better off financially to do the meal plans.
We also ate at much better restaurants than we would otherwise have chosen. Our first night--the restaurant at te resort area where we stayed as a Golf club type place. REALLY awesome, well-done food and there was almost never a line there (although we only ate there the once). The German restaurant (not the bratwurst stand, but the sit down restaurant)? Perfectly awful (for the price). It was buffet style and none of the 'typical' German fare was worth writing home about (other than to warn anyone else to eat there). We were thoroughly underwhelmed. I've had better food from German street vendors. And it sure didn't cost $33/person.
