About Watson paying for Claudia--in Here Comes the Bridesmaids!, don't Claud's parents get all up in arms about mr. schafer paying for Claud's plane ticket because it makes them look poor or something? So why is it all right for Watson to pay for airfare, a cruise, and a trip to Disney World?
In other nitpicking news, the girls take a nine seat across plane to Florida. I have flown to Florida and back probably, oh, thirty times in my life from the Northeast, and I have never ever flown with more six seats across. A 2 1/2 hour flight with a plane that huge? Get real, Ann.
And also? Claud's secret admirer just seems like a stalker in the nassau chapter.

He was weird, that's for sure. I'm not sure I'd be as flattered by the whole situation as Claud was.

well it's normal for longer flights but definitely not for the flight they were taking.

No kidding! I can see if he DID actually win a vacation in some sort of contest...but for TWELVE PEOPLE?! Normally, those things are either for two or four people; and if you wanted to take along half your hometown, that'd be your prerogative...but you'd have to PAY FOR THEM YOURSELF! I highly doubt the Pikes could afford that...

Maybe they only had to pay for the two sitters.

Anyone ever notice how gigantic Kristy's nose is on the cover of this? I started reading it yesterday and was examining the cover... her nose really popped out.

Maybe Mallory should've been wishing for a nose job for Kristy... ;D

Just got this one - finally - and am looking forward to rereading - might wait though until closer to May when I go to Disney myself. Yeah! This book puts me in a Disney mood. I will have to check out the cover, though.

Ooh, lucky! I want to go to Disney World, too. *pouts*
Dawn spends some time in Disneyland in #23, if that helps put you in a Disney mood, too.

That is the next one on my list to get! I've read it once and liked it. Though it seems like they only spent a few hours at the park (or they just didn't know what they were doing so didn't get on many rides - I can't imagine having to chose between Pirates and Haunted Mansion but I don't go during the highest peak season and have a "system" worked out)

I read this one again and checked out the over to see Kristy's giant nose, and you know who she reminds me of? Jo from "The Facts of Life."

I remember that show, I just finished reading the book, I liked the boys going treasure hunting and Stacey and Marc part the best.

I don't think Kristy's nose looks so big - it seems the same model was used for both her and Mary Anne, though. MA looks a bit more feminine. Stacey looks weird. Claudia is cute - I used to love her side ponytail. And why is Dawn wearing a sweater? Lovely how none of them are concerned that Andrew is sticking his whole body through the railing
