I'm fine with that ( original post) at counter service or bakery before lunch, welcome home! As a veteran cruiser, I've seen worse on departure day at breakfast. I wouldn't do it, but I do get my newspaper in my bathrobe sometimes on weekends here at home. My general guideline for...

Thanks to you and everyone else for your well wishes. I've made peace with my grandma's passing. Living longer than 3 of her children was pretty hard on her, I don't think she wanted to outlive any more of them. That leaves my mother as my only surviving anscestor on either side of the...

We're kinda hoping for pet friendly Disney Villas, but that could make us neighbors, too.:dogdance::cat:

Thanks, we did! We went there to do a segway tour. The town is friendly to electric vehicles. It also has a lot of antiques. I should probably give some backround info. At breakfast we were comparing notes about breaking up the winter with Disney trips, and Disney Di expressed a wish to...

What the Dear Wife said.

The more people buy, the more fishes fly.

Funny, we have an OCT use year also. It started with a resale at Boardwalk. When we tried to buy at other resorts, we were advised to keep it all one use year. Adding some smaller contracts to fit our points to the seasons we prefer for each lodge has made me glad that we're all in the same...

1. Sitdown restaurant in parks Tusker House It used to be my favorite counter service, then I would have said Coral Reef was my favorite in the parks. 2. Sitdown restaurant in resortsJiko 3. Quick service in parksColumbia Harbor House 4. Quick service meal at resorts No Preference Fine...

We had that excursion booked out of Juneau on our second trip to Alaska. We had my parents along. It was cancelled due to weather. Excursion Cancellation due to weather is a major risk on Alaska cruises. It's happened to us other times, too, but we always get a prompt refund. I'm glad they keep...

The Skagway stop is my favorite part of Alaska for touring. For shopping I like Ketchikan. On our first trip to Alaska we took the bus up the fjord valley from Skagway into the Yukon for lunch, with stops at a bridge across a fault suspended from one end only on the way up, then Emerald lake...

I always wish I had more time in ports, I guess that's part of why we keep going back, doesn't matter which cruiseline. For me, a lot of Alaska's allure is the diversity of the geography and wildlife. As you probably learned, if you want to see that you need to get off the ship and onto a...

Why thank you! :banana: I got to spend it not so far from the actual wilderness on The Wonder in Alaska.

Once we wanted to rent the pontoon boat for Illuminations, and coordinated with another family from these forums to share the boat and expenses. People from both families got up early to phone in when the reservation window opened. I taught my wife how to redial, and she was the one that got...

Thank You all for the welcomes! Horselover, I share your taste in resorts!

What Granny said. We wouldn't consider DVC for years because Animal Kingdom Lodge felt like our home away from home. Eventually we bought at Boardwalk on the resale market. Then we bought Wilderness. We love them dearly, but would get "homesick". When Kidani was announced, we knew we had...

The beginning. Maybe fly down after thanksgiving weekend. Sure, one of the water parks and some of the attractions here and there will be closed for refurbishment, but you'll more than make up for it in time savings with shorter lines compared to closer to Christmas. The decorations will be up...

Too cold to swim depends on you. Most of my lifetime swimming experience has been in outdoor pools ( with a temp in the upper sixties )or dammed creeks. An 80 degree pool at Disney usually seems warm or too warm to me. The air may be too cold to lay around in a swimsuit, but if I really...

BLT is awesome. We stayed there twice. Once was in May and there was a hatch of flying insects on the Bay Lake side of the tower. It was so bad it made the pool unusable.I wouldn't want to try it again that month. That being said, It's a great resort and I've toyed with the idea of buying...
