for 8 nights at the Wilderness Lodge.

Want to know something I can hardly wait for? Disney TV!

I just love the zippa-dee-doo-da tip for the day.

We might run into you!! Wilderness Lodge is my favorite resort. We will be at VWL on Father's Day! Look for green ribbons.

Have a wonderful trip!

JerseyJanice -- my DW and I leave 5/14 for 8 nights at WL. I am down to counting hours -- I know it's a lot, but we love WL. It's the best kept secret at Disney.

My only regret is that my knees won't allow us to be a flag family. I would love to see the view from the top of the lodge, but when we were told it was a fairly extensive climb, I had to back out. Too bad.

We highly recommend -- if you haven't done it -- taking the hidden Mickey's challenge the lodge has. Ask at the front desk for the clue sheet. I admit I am hidden Mickey-challenged -- I'd probably miss one even if it stood up, waved a flag and hit me over the head. But my DW is a wiz at finding them.

Have a great trip!

We leave in 4 1/2 weeks for WL. I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself!!! I've stayed at other Disney resorts, but WL has my heart. See you there!

Tomorrow is our five-week mark, too! We won't be at the Wilderness Lodge, but it's on my list of places I want to try. I hope everyone has a great trip.

Is it June yet?!

...I urge you (figment95, Sonya, Eeyore1954, JerseyJanice[go, NJ!!!], and KarenB) to post on the "NEW Wilderness Lodge FAQ!!!!" thread. Many of us have not stayed at this fabulous resort yet and want to hear about the "inside scoop" of the WL. Please promise us you will let us know all about your wonderful (and not-so-wonderful, too) adventures......:D

Sending some pixie dust * * * * * * * * your way.......:sunny:

Kimmar, I read your FAQ thread with interest.

I promise I'll add whatever I can when we get back.

My family and I are leaving for the Wilderness Lodge June 1. We can't wait. Last year we stayed at the Dolphin and were very pleased. Will we like the Wilderness as much?:)

5 weeks from tomorrow we leave. This is our 1st time driving and I am told it will take about 18 (lonnnnnnnnggggggggg) hours. I just cant's wait!
We are having Disney withdraw real bad. Our Oct. 01 trip was cancelled because it was just 3 weeks after 911 and my son wouldn't get on a plane, and we didn't have the time to drive. The last time we were at WDW was over a year ago. June can't come fast enough!

but I love Disney's TV programming. I watch it the whole time we're there. I wish they had VCR's in the room so I could tape it.
