    Cards Against Humanity?

    I downloaded it and took it to Staples and they printed it for me for about 7 bucks. It did take me forever to cut each individual card but I bought one of those cutting tools and it wasn't too bad.

    HAVING A GRAND OLD TIME! The 2013 Grand Floridian Resort & Villas FAQ

    We had the opportunity to stay in a one bedroom villa lake view this weekend (test stay). All I have to say is that the GF villas are spectacular! The theming is Mary Poppins. The room was pristine. The shower was huge with a rainfall head and also a hand held shower head. Loved the TV in the...

    Crazy to pass up the FD offer to keep resort/room?

    With FD, the standard rooms tend to go first, then on down the categories. There usually are more Royal Guest Rooms left because they are a higher price point, and free diners love clown car-ing people into the cheapest room to get their maximum savings. I have a feeling you will be able to...

    Why do CM ask how many times we've been?

    I second this. The breakdown RS scupperized is incorrect. It's much more complex and the agents are still kept off the phone for at least a few weeks. And the "goals" are fluid and change monthly due to the needs of the company.

    Coronado Springs parking lot view

    We just got back from a 6 day stay in the Cabanas 8B room 5828, which was a corner room facing the parking lot. we had shrubs and part of the building camouflaged everything so it wasn't bad. I liked our proximity to the main pool and there was a bus stop right there. And we had our car so it...

    Do you have ancestors that fought in the American War of Independence?

    Yes, my great great great great... uncle was a captain under Washington. He fought and died at Valley Forge, his name is on one of the monuments. I remember going there as a child and how proud my dad was to show me. There were others in my family, but that one sticks out.

    Gators or snakes: Ever been seen at Grand Floridian??

    We were at MK about 2 months ago, riding the train. We came around the turn from Space Mtn, heading towards Main Street Station and you can see a retention pond near the small restricted CM parking lot where the guard gate is. There was a HUGE gator sunning on the bank. I was shocked he was just...

    Boardwalk Club Level Food

    They were still there as of end of July. Personally, I liked the Boardwalk food the least. Wilderness Lodge by far had the best food for Club Level for me, with Grand Floridian second. I did love the lounge though, always plenty of room and it was nice to watch the fireworks from the lounge balcony.

    Melting Pot- how does it work?

    We have been many times, it's one of my favorite birthday/Mothers Day places to eat. My favorite one was the location in Coral Springs, FL. The manager knew usby name and always gave us something special, like a bottle of wine or flowers at the table. The one here in Tampa is alright, we have...

    Standard room at Contemporary vs. studio at BLT?

    BLT are much smaller, by about 100 square feet. The Contemporary Tower standard rooms are much bigger. The standard rooms have either two queens beds/2 queens and a day bed versus one queen and a sleeper sofa.

    I am on the phone with reservations and...

    Are you trying to stay at the Contemporary or BLT? I don't like studios so we always do the a frame, and I enjoy the Bay Lake view more than theme park. I'm sorry you have a confused agent on the phone. Maybe they are exhausted from all the craziness this week, lol!

    Have you or anyone you know gone to pick up tickets early recently?

    This is absolutely correct. It is policy that the tickets cannot be picked up early, guest relations allows it as a courtesy. They can say no at any time. We have yet to see this year if it will be enforced for FD dates. We should know by August 25, when the first round of FD pkgs that were...

    Price differenec with online reservations and revervations by phone?

    It's the taxes. Taxes aren't factored in until you go completely through the booking process. Also, are you sure you have the right info. Same category room, tickets, dining? I thought the Visa deal cannot be booked online, you have to call it in...

    Above ground Pools w/deck are they tacky? if you have one what do you think?

    I have an in ground pool, so I don't particularly like above ground, but you really don't see them here in FL. I actually can't think of one I've seen in my area. Now, I know up north, it's a lot more common and adding the deck around it would definitely enhance it. I wouldnt wrinkle my nose if...

    Question about DDP and split stay?

    First off, the dining is only attached to your first package reservation, if you are doing a room only for the second stay. All dining credits expire by midnight on the day you check out. You cannot use them beyond the package stay. As far as your tickets, they are good 14 days from the first...
