Just checking in to say hi. I am relieved to report that we have not had anymore snow here in the Bangor, ME area. It went from upper 40s/low 50s to mid 60s in a matter of days. We went from naked tree branches to full leaves in about a week- so that's it for spring, I'm guessing! It's supposed to hit 87F on Wednesday (and I'll be stuck in lab all afternoon...) and it'll hold steady in the 70s for the next 10 days. No sun, just cloudy all the time. Sigh.
I am stupidly excited about a trip to WDW that DD30 and I just booked. She and her DH did a week in April (at POR) and she got a Bounceback offer. It's expensive, but she and I will spend 3 nights at the Polynesian, August 2nd-5th! Unless I can rent points we NEVER stay deluxe, and then only at AKL as I love it there, so this is quite the big deal for us! We have a Moana water view room and it'll be strictly a resort trip; no theme park tickets, just DD and me for a long weekend of good food and drink. It's wicked expensive by our standards, but we aren't getting theme park tickets or renting a car, so I'm justifying the cost of the room as being offset by no tickets/car. Besides... I just checked the Disney site. We are saving $150 a night over the summer discount rate and $225 a night over rack rate, so I'll put my blinders on and enjoy this "budget" trip to Disney!! I can't tell you how excited we are- we already bought matching tropical print dresses for one day!!
