I have been referring to this map on AllEars.net. On my reservation (checking in Sunday), I have requested a unit somewhere in the 7020 to 7036 range. I'll report in Sunday on how that goes.

How many ethernet hookups are in the Treehouse Villas, and in which room(s)?

Well, there's this map. Boy, that path to The Grandstand is going to make me nervous. Especially when I'll be walking it with the back of my head is facing the 18th tee of LBV golf course.

Including how many ethernet connections?

Well, if you look at this picture (zoomed), you can just barely make out "Old Hickory Furniture Co" near the bottom of the plaque affixed to the bunk beds. A little Googling, and...here we go.

So if the main SSR pool is called the High Rock Springs Pool, this one could be the "Rock Frogs Spit Pool?"

Jack Spence's blog at AllEars.Net has a nice, long examination of the new Treehouse Villas at Saratoga Springs Resort with plenty of pictures. One of the most interesting new photos for me is this one. Looks like if I bring a VGA cable, I can hook my laptop up to any of the flat-panel TVs...

My family will be at THV in just three weeks. I think I'd better have a talk with my sons and nephews about the wildlife they might encounter, especially the snakes. We didn't have any trouble at the Fort Wilderness Cabins a few years ago, but that place was not right beside a canal.

The website explorethemagic.com has some shots I've never seen before. A little digging turned up the following full-sized images from the Treehouse Villas: View across kitchen island (toward living room) Queen bed (not master bedroom) Bunk beds

We took our three little boys to Akershus a few years ago, mainly because I wanted to try the Norwegian food. When we told them we were going to a princess dinner, they reacted with a lot of moaning and griping, the kind of reaction we would expect if we told them they would be getting Barbie...

Aldi's Fit & Active frozen fudge bars are a favorite in our house. They are 100 calories (1 point under Weight Watchers), and the kids just love them. The downside is that they come out to about 50 cents per bar (which is still less expensive than the Weight Watchers equivalent).

That is until the train reaches the room where they fill up the ceiling space with inflammable gas and set it on fire. That'll warm you up.

Five people total? From what I've read on the DISboards, there is no problem with putting five people in a 1-bedroom villa. The resort won't supply any extra bed, bedding or towels, but they also won't mind the fifth person in the room. I only found out about this recently. Anyone else...

Tasty.

Double check your dining reservations. A few years ago, we used 2 TS credits to go to Hoop Dee Doo. At some point before the trip, our travel dates changed, and my DW was supposed to change the dinner reservation date. Cut to check-in at Port Orleans. We've been traveling all day, and...

So the buses on the THV loop will drop you off at The Springs stop at SSR? From what I've heard, that's a pretty busy bus stop, and a lot of the buses to the parks are already packed when they pull up to it. When my extended family is there in June, it could be quite annoying trying to find a...

Please remain seated while the ride is in motion. You may feel some discomfort while your vehicle moves you at right angles to reality.

The first time we ever rode Dinosaur, I hit the FP machine so we could ride it again as soon as we got off. And the plan worked perfectly, except that my boys found the ride so traumatizing that they didn't want to ever ride it again. I ended up giving the Fastpasses to a British family of...

My son, at 7, had no problem with the Alien portion of The Great Movie Ride. But when we got to It's Tough to Be A Bug, he had a major freak out. I think we'll try it again this year when he'll be 10.
