ST Poll -- Time to start planning next year's spring break. Where should we go? - znufrii Mar 31, 18:18 15
- New Mexico. Might be snowing, might be 80 degrees. Who knows! You can ride in a hot air balloon either way. -- (edited) - colin Mar 31, 19:00
- Disney! you can room with us!! -- nm - Beaker 🍻 Mar 31, 18:18 13
  - Might I propose: Beaker + Mrs. Beaker + David + Callisto + Mop on a Disney Cruise! -- nm - Mop🧹 Mar 31, 18:56 3
    - I love boats but you'd get the missus on a cruise over her dead body -- nm - Beaker 🍻 Mar 31, 18:58 1
      - but end of September early october we are 75% going to orlando Disney right now -- nm - Beaker 🍻 Mar 31, 18:58
    - YEAH!!! -- nm - David Mar 31, 18:57
  - We will likely be doing at least one more trip before A gets "too old", but probably not for 2025. -- nm - znufrii Mar 31, 18:20 8
    - too old does not exist. our 18 and 21 year olds will be PISSED if we tell them we are going without them -- nm - Beaker 🍻 Mar 31, 18:21 7
      - Agree. We went in '21 with our 21 y.o. and 17 y.o. and they had a blast. -- nm - The Last Of My Kind Mar 31, 19:27
      - There's a gap, though, where she might be too old to experience it from a kids-eye-view, but not yet old enough to appreciate it as an adult. -- (edited) - znufrii Mar 31, 18:28 1
        
        true. this past day at Epcot was one of our favorites cause they were old enough to appreciate the world pavalions -- nm - Beaker 🍻 Mar 31, 18:30
      - which we likely will not "all-Inclusive in Mexico ftw!" -- nm - Beaker 🍻 Mar 31, 18:21 3
        
        Also fun. - znufrii Mar 31, 18:30 2
        
        oh, we will tell them that is what we are doing...but go to disney :) -- nm - Beaker 🍻 Mar 31, 18:31 1

        JD's closer on this one. It gets the job done, but it's nowhere near the same. They're much slower and missing the Disney touches. We ride-share. -- nm - David Mar 31, 18:57
is it weird that the wife and I are considering doing Disney without the kids? - Beaker 🍻 Mar 31, 17:49 6

- Of course not. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 31, 18:31
- It's not the slightest bit uncommon, from what I'm led to understand. -- nm - znufrii Mar 31, 18:18
- No. Weird would be going to Chuck-E-Cheese without the kids. Disney? Man, I’d go by myself if I had the money. -- nm - Qale Mar 31, 18:04
- I’ve done it, repeatedly. -- nm - Mop🧹 Mar 31, 17:56
