| Putting the finishing details in place Well - Lesley is at Disney enjoying the Flower and Garden Festival and I am attempting to get out of town. Three more days - all involve travel for work - but only 3 more days. I have spent the weekend running errands and trying to get ready. I just spent 2 hours packing everything into my suitcases and I am beginning to reconsider some items... I have 3 more evenings to redo anything I don't want - like for instance - should I take my own mask, fins and snorkel and carry them with me for 17 days? Or should I just rent them on Castaway Cay? Or a mix? Take my mask and snorkel, but leave the fins and rent them there? Can I rent only fins? Or will Disney require me to pay for everything? Like I said - a few more decisions to make before Thursday. I managed to get my toenails done today - and now I need to cancel the Grand Floridian Pedicure appt I made. That decision saved me more than 30 dollars.  Here are my suitcases while I was packing - Now to get through the next 3 days - and continue to work on culling out the excess stuff that I really may not need to bring with me.... The plans for the rest of the week - Monday - Fort Lauderdale - 620am flight to FLL and 510 flight home Tuesday - Drive to St. Augustine for a meeting and drive home around 5pm. I will likely complete the last of the errands I need to run this evening and complete my culling exercises. Wednesday - Miami - 620am flight to FLL and drive to Miami for a 9am meeting. Try to get on the 510pm flight home - if I miss that flight - the last flight out of FLL is 755pm.... getting me home around 10pm Thursday - 7am - arrive at Jacksonville Airport, pick up rental car and drive to Orlando. SO - it will be a very busy week - that hopefully will fly by so that Thursday is here before I know it

| You got so much traveling to do before the trip but I am sure that it will make the last few days fly by and before you know it you will be driving through those marvulous gates... |

| Your toes look lovely!  Saving $30+ is spectacular! I know what you mean about renting v. your own snorkel gear....I like my own mask and snorkel, plus I KNOW it's clean!....and I have funny feet--short and wide so I take my own fins too. Good luck on the culling exercise! I'm dreading that part of the return trip! That's a lot of days to pack for! I'm really interested on what you decide to take and how it works for you! The week will fly by!

| We may take some of our own gear -- but we are driving to WDW / DCL. You might want to take your mask & snorkel like NanaTink says!

| I love it that so many Passporters are on this cruise! And I soooo wish I were going along. I take my own snorkel/mask and swim fins every time. I just like my own and make room in the suitcase. The fins fit me well and I like how my mask feels. And Terri - those "Vacation Toes" look fabulous! You guys are either back in your room or are at te Adventurere's Club right now! Bon Voyage! |
