LOL You know EVERYONE has some kind of Pet Peave, right? I think I would have planned at least 1 day apart.

The thing is we do know these two really well. Well we know Kevin really well. Kevin's been around in our lives for almost 11 years. He and Andy are like brothers. And we planned everything together b/c that's what they wanted. I tried asking them what sorts of things they wanted to do and where they wanted to eat but never really got responses. So I planned to be prepared and made it clear if they wanted to do something different then they could. They waited until like a week before the trip to start deciding they wanted to do research and start learning about stuff... a little late in my opinion. We've been on a few week long trips with Kevin before always had a blast which is why we expected this to be such a great trip. I really think that Lori was the problem here. She put a damper on everyone and he was frustrated.
And, just so y'all know..... I mentioned earlier that they're planning another trip. I thought it was for next Sept. Well they are still planning on that but Kevin called Andy yesterday and told him they were planning on this Sept. too. Andy told him "You know we've already booked everything, room and meals, for our August trip and we booked it a few months ago" and Kevin was like "yeah....I know". So when they call up and try to make ADRs (if they even know to do that) they're probably going to have a hard time seeing as it's free dining (which they don't know about either). Apparently Lori has been on ebay this week trying to figure out how to buy DVC points b/c I guess they really looked at the Poly and saw how much it was going to cost them to stay for a week. They'll be getting no help from us in their planning, that's for sure. I say let them live and learn.
