    The New 2008 Beach Club and Yacht Club FAQs thread

    The balconly wasn't an issue. Having stayed at WL we may have spent 30 minutes on the balcony during a 5 day trip. Reality is it is not a balcony. We went to BW which also seemed dead each night. I think with Pleasure Island closed adults without kids are limited for activities after the parks...

    DTD after dark with kids?

    Please keep kids out of clubs. DW and I love Adventurers Club and have been going since honeymoon over 14 years ago. It is a club where adults are drinking and in my opinion not a place for kids. DW and I will be taking our nieces 9 and 13 in 9/07. As much as I would like to go there we will not...

    Coral Reef Restaurant - Diver/menu - Discontinued for 2009

    This is so easy to do. I called Deb last Friday and got voicemail saying she was out till today. I got called this pm. That said I told her when we would be there and the ADR time, 9/2 at 6:30. Due to the possibility of not getting in at 6:30 she setup the diver for 7pm. So they at least go in...

    Pop Frig Question

    I fit in a couple bottles of wine laying down and stacked. Don't see why you can't fit a couple half gallons of milk with ease. Plus other items would fit

    Do I have a chance of standard at WL?

    Well if you don't mind changing ressies often book at CBR and then check daily for standard at WL. If it becomes available you can change. Trust me this works and CRO has been patient with changes. Went from Courtyard view before free dining 9/1-7 to paying for dining on 9/1 and checking in...

    Which August Pirate and Princess are you going to? Poll

    9/3 for us. Labor Day evening so hopefully park will be even emptier then usual since kids should be in school the next day. Of course they could be skipping like my beuatiful nieces. Bad parents if they do, but heck I am an uncle so that is what I am there for.

    DH and I are looking forward to this but the nieces don't know. My hope is that it will be more empty then usual. The last day of P&PP is Labor Day.

    What is the first thing you do when you checkin at WL?

    THe plan right now is dinner at Ragland Rd and then fireworks at Epcot. The only reason for Epcot is that DH and I are taking our nieces to DW and this will be their first trip. Figure the best way to end the evening is with fireworks. Of course since we arrive 9/1 we may skip Epcot and go to MK...
