    Running in Disney - Suggestions

    I really like starting at OKW running the paved trail to DTD to SSR then back to OKW. You can't run it before dawn so I hope you get some cool weather. It is a good route with lots of different things to look at. I don't remember how long the loop is but you shouldn't have to run it too many...

    Getting to Hoop Dee Doo

    You could take a bus to WL and then take the boat to FW or walk the trail from WL to FW. Here is a link to a map showing the trail between WL and FW. http://www.disneyrunning.com/joggingtrailwl.html

    My Contemporary & Boardwalk reviews, updated with pictures

    Wow, sounds like a great trip. My wife and I are staying at BLT 9/11-9/16 and BWV from 9/16-9/19. So your trip report has gotten me more excited then I already was.

    Post Half-Marathon Meal: Tony's or Mama Melrose

    I am going to throw a curve ball at you. I don't like to carb load / reload on pasta. I makes me feel bloated and sometimes causes GI issues. For years I have been eating Sushi the night before a race. It is perfect, lots of white rice for the carbs, protein in the fish, and very mild on the...

    Wait List Success?

    I am on two wait lists for 9/16-9/19. BC Studio and BW Studio BW view. I am calling once a day to see if BW PV or SV opened up. After reading this thread I asked MS what time of day the wait list computers look for reservations. She told me they do it constantly whenever there is a...

    My Goal --- To BQ some day. Next attempt Fall 2013

    Well I am back at it. After following my yearly routine of backing way off of my running during the winter I am ready to try for another BQ. I really don't plan to be lazy but I guess my mind and body need the break. I went back to my first post in 2008 and realize that my plan is still the...

    I had trouble with Member Services today-what do you think?

    Don't you have to make the transfer? It doesn't make any sense that they told you the other member took them out of YOUR account. I don't really have a problem with the rest of it, mistakes do happen and they fixed it. But for them to give you false info like that is way out of line.

    I'm scared to fly!!! How am I going to get to WDW and Hawaii????

    I am not afraid to fly. I solo'ed in a Cesena 152 when I was 16 years old. But am I the only one who has no interest in spending $1000+ per ticket to fly to HI. Not sure I would even do it for $500 a ticket.

    Should we move our trip dates??

    Does the GAD pass expire? Why can't you convert it to a ticket, then not use it. Unused tickets don't expire correct? We were thinking of doing the promotion this year. Convert it to a ticket then apply it for credit in the fall of 2011 when we purchase AP's. Actually I was thinking...

    Help me understand the BENEFIT....

    There are lots of things to consider but I will throw a couple of them at you. 1. The amount of money spent on points isn't gone. You can sell your points. For example, I bought 50 points at HH. I have paid including purchase price, closing cost and 2 years of MF's about $4500. So far...

    Renting DVC Points Website

    I agree that it is nice to have the option. I have never rented my points and would probably like to have someone else deal with the details. How much does he pay the member for the points?

    Thinking of small add-on.... a few questions.

    I don't see how re-sale is a better deal in this situation. 50 points through Disney is $102 point = $5100 with no closing costs. With Disney you could rent/transfer the 2009 and 2010 points for $10 a point to lower your cost by another $1000, that would bring it down to $82 a point...

    What does Disney do with ROFLs?

    I think Disney has a big advantage with small add-ons. When the points goes up the advantage goes down. If you are looking for a 50 point add-on with a specific use year and resort you might be waiting a long time. By the time you factor in closing costs and potential of a striped contract it...

    Dvc membership and Extra magic hours??

    Only staying on property will do it. Also Swan/Dolphin, and I think some DTD hotels. You just get in early or stay late with whatever kind of ticket you already have

    Why buy at Bay Lake Tower?

    I just added on points this week so I could book a Standard View room. If I had lots of points and didn't mind spending extra points on LV I wouldn't have added on. I have been lucky and gotten, BC, and BW when I wanted at less then 7 months. Also think LV at BLT at 7 months won't be too...

    BLT rooms and views with picture links! Last update of post #1 10/21/2015

    Just added on points at BLT and looking to make my first reservation. I would love some advice. We would book a standard view studio for a week in mid Sept. I think we would like South tower outside view, but not ground floor. Looks like 2nd floor is LV. So I guess ground floor would be...
