“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

The Drunken Baggage??
Ok, so "where did the name of this blog come from?" you may ask. In the Disney Vacation Club's Old Key West Resort in Orlando, Florida, is a little poolside bar called "The Gurgling Suitcase." When my family stays there, we ALWAYS go and have a drink or three...or four...
At any rate, we can never remember the actual name of the place (and this is BEFORE we've had a drink), so we call it a variety of things. Some of the more creative are "The Soused Satchel," "The Drunken Duffel," "The Buzzed Backpack,"The Pickled Portmanteau." You get the idea. But the one that stuck was "The Drunken Baggage." It has, as they say, become the stuff of legend in my family. While Disney is not, by far, my first choice in vacation destinations, thinking of this little bar always brings a smile to my face.
