Lou... 3,118 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 SIL loves all kinds of wine. She also loves camping. I bought her these for her birthday... All of you Fiend wine connoisseurs out there, ok, both of you, know that the main reason for the stem and foot on a proper wine glass is to keep the temperature of the wine from being affected by the heat of your hand. The glasses Mo found meets the requirement perfectly. My only gripe with the design is that there is a lot of wasted space that could be filled with wine. I like Cindy's idea of being able to keep it cold if you're able to put ice in the empty space. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CampMImi 22 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Is there room to put ice around the wine glass to keep my super sheek boone's farm strawberry hill chilly?? It should be one of those cups that you pop in the freezer. Perfect for Strawberry Hill!! :laugh: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I like Cindy's idea of being able to keep it cold if you're able to put ice in the empty space.Me too!! I don't care if a wine is "supposed" to be room temp. If it aint cold, I don't like it!!! beccaewert 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I can't find a photo of them, but the ones I bought had a removable bottom so you could fill the outer chamber with ice. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I brought in breakfast, lunch and dinner for 7 of us, so my favorite carry-in was two large backpacks, one from LLBean, the other one is a 31 bag I won at a Fiend Raffle! :D Here is my 12yo holding the 31 bag: Yes, I am reposting photos from my TR! LOL Oh, and i will drink wine in whatever I can. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cindymac11 43 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 What was this thread about?It was started by yours truely because I was superdy-duperdy excited about my "free" cooler backpack and was curious about what other people like to use to lug their stuff into the parks. An innocent comment from Jason about Vodka (are comments about liquor every REALLY inncoent?) sent us in a whole new direction. I am now quite concerned that may backpack does not have an adult beverage dispenser and did not include a free frisbee. :rofl2: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For some reason my system at work blocks blog pictures. The cooler is quite impressive. It's even better than getting one with a frisbee! I got my sister in law one of those wine glasses as a gag gift from Dollar Tree last Christmas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I am anxiously awaiting my new cooler backpack I purchased with credit card points (yeah, me!). It got me curious....what kind of carry-ins do you guys use?? Always looking for new ways to lug our lunch :) I hope I'm never behind someone with a bag like that at the WDW Theme Park bag checks. Wait. Too late. Not very magical. I wish they had a designated lane for those. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not very magical. I wish they had a designated lane for those. TCD My previous sack was a wally-world special and fell apart. It had lots of pockets too, but they only ever checked the big one....so I breeze right through. But perhaps it is less about the bag and more about my shining face and sparkling personality. I'm a delight, dammit! >:D >:D >:D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
red...Susan 37 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I've had bag check rifle through my ID/credit cards in a cell phone purse. It is only big enough to hold a small iphone and 5 cards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I think it completely depends on the guard you get checking your bag. I have had ones who just looked in the main compartment, giving it a glance and I have had ones who go through every pocket. Neither of those bother me as much as a one who wants to stand and chat, while his eyes and hands check nothing. Face it, bag check is the least magical part of my trip. It is the part that i want to spend the least amount of time on. If you want to be chatty Cathy, work as a character minder. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I have a hideous fanny pack (which I like because only because it's hands free) and it has 4 zippered pouches. I take it off and unzip everything before I hit bag check to speed things up. The worst is when someone plunks down a bag or 3 with 57 compartments and then has to open everything up while you're behind them waiting. Also FWIW, I've had hit or miss luck with bag check. I've had times when they barely glanced in the main compartment, and other times when they've used a flashlight and stick to poke around in every nook and cranny.

Travisma 1,317 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 give it to your daughter to carry in, they don't check them as good if a kid plops it down Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't let it go to your head. It might have been the same guy who asked me if I was the mayor of Orlando (and he wasn't kidding). He needs to get his glasses checked.
