DDA Chapter 12

I tried to Google "baby on a wedding cake" but I didn't find anything. If it is a tradition it's not a common one.

Has anybody ever tried to name their own price for airline tickets on Princeline? The biggest pitfall I can see is that DS and I might end up flying out of Dallas really late and essentially lose our first day. So I would almost have to bid to fly out on Thursday and spend one night at Pop before DH arrives Friday AM. Coming home I am sure we would get stuck with the dark o'clock AM flight, but if we can get it dirt cheap it might be worth it. What do you all think? If I do it the tickets we end up with are absolute - no changes, no cancellation, no transfers, no nothing.

I did it once and ended up in Chicago with a three hour layover just to go to Atlanta. I saved 50% on the price.

all right what do you all think

Debbie

Tom glad you all had a good day!

Glynis glad your dh & ds made it home safely!

Kristine I have been thinking of you

Anyone heard from Lindsay lately?

I think the baby on the cake is for good luck & no Chanon is not expecting. Not yet anyway

The thing is, I have been reading on the Transportation board about Airtran. People are booking non-stop flights and then having them changed to flights WAY later or WAY earlier with a layover. If that's going to happen to me anyway I want it to be CHEAP! It makes me ill to think about paying nearly $900 for 2 tickets.

And by going Thursday it doesn't matter if DS and I lose the whole day in airports.

Coming home might get weird, but we can debate the merits of that over the next few weeks. I am just not ready to take that non-refundable plunge yet.

Jennifer - The invite looks good!

Elin - Your TR was fabulous! You really made me want to try out the Food and Wine festival. However, I don't drink! Is there enough offered to make it worth my while without the drinks?

Glynis - first of all, let me say that I was VERY glad to read that Alan and Jacob are OK. That was scary sounding to me!

Secondly -- There is a ton of food and no need to drink anything alcoholic. There is a link to the Festival Brochure here: http://adisneyworld.disney.go.com/m...c/parks/epcot/events/foodandwine/F&W_2008.pdf

Check it out... not everything is alcoholic!

So did I!

It's a kewpie doll, isn't it? Wonder if there is a family connection to it?

 

[Tammi67]

It looks cute, Jennifer. Maybe it's just me, but I would capitalize the W in Why.

Very nice, Jennifer!

I don't know. I guess we'll have to get the back story when they get home.

This is exactly what happened to us with Delta. I didn't know AirTran was doing that now too.

thanks Elizabeth
Tigger and grumpy are his favorite characters.

 

[Tammi67]

Glynis - I'm glad Alan and Jacob are okay. Good thing Jacob isn't old enough to worry!

I thought I did. I know I did the first time I typed it. I had to redo as little hands hit the keyboard.

I have a nonstop out of MCO to DCA for my return home flight on Dec. 6. I'll let you know how that goes. So far it hasn't change.

One of our Airtran flights in August was completely eliminated. We had an option of getting on another nonstop flight. But it arrived in Florida waaaaaay later than I wanted. I asked to be put on other flights at another airport, which they don't normally do, and they did it without any hassle.

Oh, wow! Ok, F&WF is now on my bucket list!!! Now, to talk Alan into it! Let's see, I could ask for it for our 20th anniversary! That's just 1 1/2 years away. That could give him time to deal with it, and put some money away.
Truth be told, I would love to just get back to WDW to do the World Showcase. I didn't get nearly enough time there!

I was a bit upset with the boy's "adventure", too! Not what a pregnant mommy needs to hear! At least it all ended well. Jacob had a great time, so I guess that's what matters!

I went back and looked.... it is not a kewpie doll. So the mystery continues!

Robyn, That date book shows July of 2009, which would be 9 months from the wedding night. I think it was a joke. Maybe not.

But a baby due 9 months from the wedding night would mean the bride IS already be pregnant!


(I am thinking she just did this to wreak havoc and laugh later! )
