Countdown to "O"town

We're leavin' on a jet plane....this Thursday for Orlando. 10 days of warmth(Even though its still hot here) beach, parks, parks, good food, parks.... And hopefully a visit with BCFers.
Vacations are rare here, so this is a biggie. I'm getting excited. So much to do, and only 10 days to do it. I think I need the break from work too. Things have been tense lately.

Re: Countdown to "O"town

Still too warm for me here but at least the mornings are starting to get cooler. Oh yeah... go to Walmart and buy a few $.88 rain ponchos :smile:

Prep yourself for crowds. The first and second weeks of October are usually pretty busy, but I think you're hitting it a lot better than if you were showing up on the 7th. Hitting the parks around Columbus Day can be tedious. I heard from someone that the moderate-priced Disney hotels were pretty much full.

Ben,

I think you need to visit Doc while you're there.

Re: Countdown to "O"town

Doc's on the list. That's gonna be fun. As for the parks... we have 4 day passes to the Disney parks and a 1 day pass for Universal studios (Dot and I like Harry Potter). So we're gonna hit the parks on weekdays hoping to have slightly thinner crowds. It's been over 15 years since I've been to Disney/Epcot. So I expect it to be completely different.
I've never been a huge "theme park" kinda guy. I'm more of a "State Park" or "National Park" person. I expect to be theme parked-out by day 2. Stock up and keep the CABs cold Doc! I'll chip in for the extras when I get there.

Always try to keep well stocked, sir. BTW, what's this "extras"? No sucha thang. :wink:

You may miss meetin' 'smits. She's goin' to visit her folks for the week.

...it just occurs to me this could mean trouble. :shocked: :devilgrin:
 
Re: Countdown to "O"town

You guys can see the new avatar?! I tried uploading it 20 times. I still see my old one. I must need to check a setting or something...
We watched Back To the Future last night. I was 9 when it came out, and have dearly wanted a DeLorean ever since. It also cemented Christopher Lloyd as one of my favorite actors. It was time for a new avatar anyway. Now I just wish I could see it....
Home alone? unsupervised? Doc? uh oh..this could be interesting. Course I'm gonna have the clan in tow with me...family vacation. I don't think SWMBO would care for me takin' off for a day without her and dot.

Re: Countdown to "O"town

Excellent! I loved him in Taxi as well. I never saw that episode (I haven't seen too many altogether). A very young Tom Hanks too. I love his face when he tries the brownie.
P.S. Basil straightened me out on my avatar. I can see it now.

Gotta love Taxi.

Why does TV have to suck today?

We are always watching the retro channels.

Don't care too much for modern mindless dribble....
 
Re: Countdown to "O"town

Easier, better, more sensible if I meet you there, Ben. :laugh:
