Yay, I love arriving at MCO and knowing you have your whole trip ahead of you, it's awesome! I always feel so bad for the people getting on the mini monorail, going to catch flights home! I know not everyone in Orlando is coming from WDW, but I always assume they are!
Glad you got your requested section at SSR! I'd really like to stay there someday, it looks really pretty!
Chik-fil-a! I was so sad when they changed their frying oil, the french fries aren't quite as tasty now as they were before (we go pretty much every time my boyfriend is homesick for the South). Love their special sauce!
I've never stayed there but I love Saratoga Springs! Who wouldn't love a horse-themed resort? And those costumes are awesome.
That is a long bus ride for your sister! But I'm guessing there's not very much traffic over to those resorts? I can't imagine having to do that for a commute!
Three of the best words ever in a phrase a.k.a. the best road name ever- "Vacation Club Way".
Love the SSR pictures! It wasn't our first choice but I am now so excited to be staying there in December.
Your Chik-Fil-A tradition is great, if if was closer it might not be as special when arriving at MCO.
How lovely that you didn't have to wait for the Magical Express!
SSR is so pretty and peaceful looking. I wonder why people don't like it as much as the others? Because it is not next to a park?
Hooray for Chick-fil-a and Disney! You should write Chick-fil-a and ask them to expand in to the Mid-west! The stores seem to do well wherever I see them so I'm sure they'd be a hit up there too. Who doesn't like fried chicken?!?!
I have one about 5 minutes from my house. I can totally see how it would be a great treat if I only got to have it once in a blue moon. Have you ever tried their milkshakes? They're really yummy and hand mixed, not the kind from a dispenser machine like they have at most fast food places.
I can't believe yall don't have a Chick-Fil-A! But you're right, now it's like a special Disney thing.
Saratoga Springs looks beautiful! I would love to stay there, I wonder why it's not as popular as some of the others? Looks great to me!
Looking forward to yall meeting up with your sister!
Ok so I'm pretty sure you've convinced me to get Chik-Fil-A in MCO...but we'll have to get it before our flight home because I'm always like a 5 year old and want to go right to DME when we get off the plane lol
Yay for SSR! I'm not sure if you've had a chance to read my latest PTR update but that's where we're going to be booked for our honeymoon at 11 months out My friend owns there and if we aren't able to get BWV or BCV at 7 months, we'll stay there. I see you like Congress Park the best...I'm indecisive as to where I'll request. What suggestions would you have? Do you know the order of the bus route? I like that Grandstand is the first bus stop when we are returning from the parks but I don't want to sit on the bus for 40 mins in the mornings going through all the stops before leaving for the parks!
I'm not sure why SSR isn't loved like the other DVC resorts...everything I've seen of it looks GORGEOUS!
Yay! You made it to SSR I really want to stay there next trip. I feel like it was made for me since it's all horse racing/horse themed, which is my favourite animal. Plus the close proximity to DTD helps too Can't wait to see more pictures.

I am joining in on the fun
I love Chik-fil-a! It's sooooo good.
It's so cool that your Sis gets to be a CM!! Will she still be there for my december trip? Im gonna keep an eye out for her and make sure I say hi if I see her since she is at my Favorite park also!! We just had a CHIK-FIL-A open up near our mall which is apprx 45 mins away!! I have yet to go to this one but we have been to the one in MCO we really like it too! Have you ever done night flights? In December when we go we are taking a 630pm flight there and a 940pm flight back and we have flown quite a few times just never at night usually early morning or mid-day We've also stayed at SSR and it's a very nice resort I really like their counter service . I had a chicken ceasar pita or something not sure it's been awhile and it was really good !
LOL, it really doesn't take that long to get the food! Plus we always take it with us so we can enjoy it on the bus.
After reading your comment I did go check out your post. YAY for getting to stay at a DVC resort! I'm always going to say Congress Park, but if you would prefer to be closer to the main building (the Carriage House) then maybe the Springs (that's also the last stop on the buses). Speaking of the buses, the order is the Grandstand, Carousel, Paddock, Congress Park, and then the Springs. It does take a while to get through all the stops but it's really not that bad.
I think you'll really enjoy SSR. And if you are able to get BCV I'm sure you'd love that. I can't comment on the BWV yet!
I never even realized you guys take it on the bus! That's smart!! You just planted a seed in my head
Thanks so much for the SSR advice...I'm so indecisive on what section I want to be in! How far is CP from the CS place at SSR? I don't even know what building it's in...so much to learn! haha
I will honestly be happy wherever we get to stay! Thanks again!!
Yay on being home and getting Congress Park!
I'm joining in! It's so great that you guys were able to go to Disney and visit your sister! It would be awesome to be a CM.
I'm happy for you that you got the section you wanted at SSR and I can't wait to read about the rest of your trip.
I have no idea how I missed that you started this but I'm here now and all caught up!
