    Disney Dollars at VB

    Last year before we went on the 7 day cruise, I bought Disney dollars at the Disney Store for our daughter to "earn" as spending money to use onboard the ship. Imagine our surprise when we were told at a store on the ship that they could NOT be used. I knew they would not be accepted for...

    BWV Without Kids

    We joined DVC in October of 1999 on a trip to Wilderness Lodge with our 3 year old. In February of 2000, we decided to check-out our "property" and spent 5 days at Boardwalk while our daughter stayed home with her Grandmas. We had a nice time but decided we both missed having our child along...

    VB architectural trivia?

    Thanks for the pictures and the advice...I appreciate the tip on checking out the security of the trim (if, in fact, it does exist). I am guessing that they wouldn't skimp on the trim but may just have it "tacked" in place.

    VB architectural trivia?

    This may seem like a bizarre question, but here goes...does anyone know if the door openings in the 1 BDR at VB are trimmed with moulding? The reason I am asking is, we are taking our 5 year old daughter and 4 month old baby in 12 days for a much anticipated vacation. We would like to take an...

    Only child while we visit!

    When we were discussing our plans to join DVC at the Boardwalk Sales Office in September of 1999, we were offered the opportunity to have our child "entertained" in an area designed with child care in mind. We declined, but gathered up some of the books and took them into our salespersons...

    WDW in Late Feb?

    Our first visit to check out our investment in DVC was in February of 2000. We stayed at a studio at BW for 6 days. We had a great time, despite the fact the weather was somewhat uncooperative. It rained almost every day and we did not unpack our shorts once. As you can see, we are from the...

    One night at the Plaza Hotel?

    I have not stayed anywhere but WDW using my points and I am wondering if I can use my remaining points for 2001, which is 55 points, to stay only one night at the Plaza Hotel in New York? I am reading the chart, and it says 45 for Classic and 57 for Deluxe. Also, is there a timeframe...
