    Epcot Lunch/Dinner

    We had the same opportunity you had (that is, with no kids) and decided not to limit ourselves just to one country/resturant. We started with Mexico (margaritas and nachos) and made our way around the World Showcase stopping a each country trying a little something from each country...we ended...

    How "Preferred" is "Preferred"?

    Thanks to everyone for the input. I did not mean to leave out the fact that we own at OKW. The trip we are planning is a long "adults-only" week-end with some friends and thought we might try a resort other than OKW. It certainly does not sound like I need to worry too much about what is...

    How "Preferred" is "Preferred"?

    I am in the process of evaluating a trip "home" to the Boardwalk Villas and wanted members input on the "Preferred View" v "Standard View" with regards to staying at the Boardwalk (that is, is the "Preferred View" worth the extra points required to stay in such accomodations and if so, why?)...

    We are starting off the new year celebrating my son's 18th birthday with a trip to Disneyworld...can't imagine a better way to celebrate such a milestone. Anyway, can someone provide specific directions to a reasonably priced grocery store from MCO? I do not have a preference as to which one...

    Do you regret your investment?

    I never really viewed the purchase of our family's DVC membership as an investment but more as an opportunity to be part of a special "club" that ensured a quality vacation experience for our family. I guess all of us have our concerns about cutbacks we hear about in the news but I will choose...

    Taxes on DVC

    For OKW-Taxes for year 2000:Actual .1327 per point Taxes estimated for 2001:per statement-.7157 per point I cannot determine why the actual for 2000 is so dramatically different from the estimate for 2001...it seems obvious to me that DVC is acting as an "escrow agent" for the real estate...
