I love it here Dee!!!
Yeah! We are going to Hoop de Doo on our Oct trip and I was unsure about it!!!
I have not done Aloha but had another friend who said she was disappointed with it.
Well we have switched over to the Yacht Club and we love our room. We can look right onto the boat dock and we are by the lighthouse with a view across the lake.
Tonight we ate at Yachtsman and I cried. Good cry. (Story Ahead)........
Dh and I were celebrating our anniv. We had our buttons on. Our server asked us how many years and we told her. I also told her that dh held my hand when I had cancer and was in the coma for 2 days etc.
Well a little into our dinner, she said someone left you this note and wants you to read it. It said:
Life is precious and part of life is bringing a smile to someone you dont know.
Hope you all enjoyed your meal.
Have a wonderful evening.
Someone named Erin.
Dh said he saw that she was sitting and dining by herself. I am so sorry that I didnt notice her. I always have a lot of pain and just getting to the table and walking is sometimes an effort for sure.
I was so touched by this beautiful, wonderful woman. I dont know if she is a diser or not.
Our server said that has only happened once before to her. I told her if she ever saw this young lady again to make sure she told her thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Our server told us she said she does this once a month and picked us because she saw it was our anniv.
What a wonderful magical experience thanks to wonderful Erin
We were exhausted from the heat today. Guess we are not used to this, so we just sat on our balcony and watched Illuminations. The trees obstructed some of the view but we were really happy with what we saw.
Tomm. I will stop in and say hi to Teena.
I got Disney mail!!!! I got Disney mail!!!!! I'm so excited, but they only sent two tags. Do they not know how much luggage I have to bring? I will be calling for more. Only 37 more days!!
AWESOME advice!!!
But what do I do if I only have ???
Wow. I can't believe the hassle they gave you about the AP. We had 10 day park hoppers (and dining plan) on our room card. I went to the Epcot Guest relations office outside the park (the one inside the park could not help us) and we were able to "cash in" our park hoppers for a Premier AP. We still had several meals on our room card, but there was no mention of using them up before giving us our AP. We did this 5/24, so I wonder what has changed in the last week. What a problem. However, we used our Premier AP at Disneyland today and evidently the FL and CA parks don't link together, so we had nothing but trouble. Hopefully it will be all fixed by the time we go back.

I agree. I think the Spirit of Aloha Show is a waste of money. Now Hoop is another story. Love it and the food!!

Morning all,
I'm not ate sure where to ask this, so I'll ask my fellow BC lunatics.....
Our next trip to home is coming up in July, and my wife and I are planning on coming down a day earlier than the rest of my family in order to prepare for my nephew's first trip to WDW. As of now, I have a standard room booked at AKL for our first night, but now, as I always do, am beginning to have second thoughts about staying there. I already received my DME tags in the mail, my question is if we decide to switch resorts, must I request new tags since the ones I have currently read AKL? Thanks in advance...
Oh my gosh! I will be at BCV tomorrow!! I am beyond excited! Having never stayed there before (have always stayed at Pop in the past), I just want to thank everyone for all the great info on this thread! You guys are great!
Thanks for the great advice. I knew the fans on this thread would have good recommendations
Our stay is 6/13 - 6/15. This is a short trip with a very short planning window. Not the usual way we do Disney so I am not used to dealing with everything being booked up. With my recent knee replacement surgery I had not planned on a trip but who can turn down a free trip to a great resort. I am looking forward to exploring the YC.
If we wanted to get to AKL from BC (Boma ressie), is the best way to use a cab, or bus to TTC?
Yayyyyy for June! Now just 2 more months
We were originally booked at BWV for the week of 6/15-6/22 because nothing was available at BC or YC for our dates. As of this morning I am happy to say that we will be staying at YC Club Level! Woohoo so excited.
Grr...how much more? Looking to spend July 4-6 at the YC and have 1 military park hopper left and can't go to MK because of the BO. Guess I will need a trip to target.
Hi...Lurker Here. I find it my duty to come out of lurking and give my opinion about the Spirit of Aloha Show. My daughter and I LOVE disney and have spent 9 wonderful trips there. The one huge disappoint for us has been the Aloha Show. It was a waste of time and money for us. Just my opinion.
2. I booked my bounce back for me & DH for 10/28-11/3 @ BC (YC was my 1stchoice, but currently no availability for bounce back)!!!!! I'm so excited because it will be our 1st MNSSHP & F&W festival! Dee please add me to BOG!
I love it here Dee!!!

I did not have a chance to make any posts on the last day of our trip, so I will do so now.
On Friday, DS and I were up bright and early and walked over to HS for Star Wars Weekends. We arrived at 6:35 and were first at our gate. He was quite excited for his first SWW weekends and wanted to do Jedi Training.
The park opened at about 7:45, and he was signed up for JTA pretty quickly. We proceeded to ride Star Tours two times with no wait before pulling FPs for later. We then walked around to see where some characters were that he wanted to see, did Jedi Training and then more Star Tours and characters. All before lunch. Once again, getting to the park early definitely pays off.
Meanwhile, DW and DD were off riding RNR multiple times, backlot tour, and the Great Movie Ride. They were able to get a lot accomplished before lunch as well.
Anyway, after lunch DS and I continued with seeing characters, rode Star Tours again and then shopped in Darth's Mall. I would have spent a lot of money in there, but I held myself in check.
From reading the SWW thread, Friday was apparently the least crowded day of any of the weekends thus far. My only reason for this is because it was the designated Gay Days park. I think a lot of people might avoid the park on these days, thus decreasing crowds. I think we experienced the same thing at AK on Thursday when I felt the crowds there were really low compared to what we had seen in other parks earlier in the week. I made a comment to DW that if we take future trips this time of year, I might just plan our park days to coincide with the Gay Days park days.
By about 4:30, DS was ready to head back to the the resort and swim, so that is what we did. The kids spent the rest of the afternoon swimming and having fun on our last day.
No one was happy to leave yesterday, but our stay at BC was great. No major complaints whatsoever. My only minor observation would be that I wish they would figure out a way to have more places to sit for breakfast outside the marketplace in the morning. Those two person tables they have outside are not really family friendly, but that is just a minor observation.
This was the second time DW and I had been here, but first time for the kids. After all the fun they had in the pool, I doubt we will ever be able to stay at any other resort again.
Time to check to make sure I have you listed in the right place:
