Watched the show last night and (of course) was very envious of the room. My daughter and I have a thing about watching the "Building a house show".

Her job is to drop her jaw and say "how cool" or "I wish I could have......."

My job is to continue to remind her just how good we have it. That we aren't (and hopefully never will be) in a position to be on the show.

Max - I was at WDW in May and cannot agree with you more. We go every two or three years and for me there is no better way to justify working long hours in a cubicle for an ungrateful bunch of......... ok, I digress.

The only thing better than being a kid again is watching your own (or those of a random stranger walking by) glaze over in amazement with each new wonder.

Our favorite saying when we hit a ride with a long line is that we'll "save that for the next trip" thereby all but guaranteeing another visit.

That show, Disney, the concept - really is amazing.

Can you imagine the emotional reserves the designers and people who build the houses must have to be able to do that week, after week, after week (yeah, they get time off - but, still!)

Stop me when I start to ramble.........
