Thread: completing the hotel trifecta...a pre-trip tale

I think that, after this experience, I'd be OK using the insurance. It was just so exhausting. You saw us on our first night, and you saw Eamon sleeping for over an hour. He does not nap anymore, so that was weird...I should have known then. I was so glad to see you and meet your son and friends, but the rest of the trip was just so hard, because E and I had been so sick, and he got the "bounceback" (I've been...

What a wonderful shopping trip. I think you did great, and got some good deals especially considering that it was Disney. And you know I love the idea of the bread on the side, I am a real fan of that idea and I shall steal that idea from you when I go next time. Hopefully in June.

YaY! I just got caught up after being gone for a week! It sounds like Trick or treating was a hit and worked out really well. I'm glad E is willing to trade and eat the candy that is "good" for him. We left our Halloween candy sitting on the kitchen table since we left early, early Sunday morning and since we've been home only about 2.5 hours and the kids have been busy playing, they really haven't rediscovered...

Great end to your trip report Molly! Poor Robert, getting puked on. I agree about the trip insurance in theory, but I wonder if I would have the forsight to actually use it in the circumstances you were in. I mean actively sick yes, but mostly recovered, it would be hard to not go.

Oops about the marble, but at least it was something without sharp edges Bummer about the anti-biotics on not much food – that is never fun and even more so when you’re out and about. Good luck with the retrieval of the “fairy bubble” ;-] Sounds like a great time trick or treating! We live in the official trick or treat neighborhood for our town. Old established houses in a well-lit neighborhood with good sidewalks. I think the ladies...

Wow! I got more then I bargined for on the MIL front, but I gotta be honest...it seems like you were bursting with it. Like you really just needed to get it out, to tell someone, anyone, who would have a better reaction then your wonderful albeit sometimes-doesn't-have-the-best-coping-skills, R. My MIL is an oddity. She's a "b-word", through and through. She's horrible. She is dramatic and cries, she is one of...

I wonder what chemicals were in the one lip gloss that made you and E have (what sounds like) an allergic reaction. Hmm. Otherwise, I love lip gloss so if it is free, even better!! And cupcake-scented bubble bath or anything else cupcake-scented sounds delightful. I may just have to revisit Sephora. I have not ordered anything from them online. I thought I had, but now I think I had planned to order online and I never did.

Great update, Molly! But I have some bad news for you. The cars are gone from the Boardwalk.
