    Our Own Welcome Bags in Rooms?

    You can use the fish hanging outside the rooms to hang the bags on if you don't want to hand them out to everyone beforehand. It's so fun to come to your room and have little gifts there. :)

    You should be able to see a pm you've received. How how many are in your group, and what are the ages of the children? What is your stateroom number? If you post it here, I'll get you added.

    November 16, 2014-7 day Western Caribbean on the Magic

    Holy cow. I can't believe we did it, but my dh and I booked this cruise today. We've never been on a Disney cruise, it's been 7 years since we've been anywhere with just the two of us (we have 3 children), we've spent almost half of the last 4 years apart (military), and our 15th anniversary...

    My Perspective on the GAC

    My intention was more to say DON'T be afraid to use it. I think every thread I've read (and I spent a good deal of time reading today, trying to figure out if things are changing) has had people say that they are uncomfortable using the GAC. Or they say they rarely use it. I don't get that...

    My Perspective on the GAC

    Do you take your family to Disney and then go on all the rides by yourself? Do you go to the shows, tell your family to find seats and then sit somewhere else? Why should my family have to split up? Going to Disney is about making FAMILY memories. I can't send my KIDS on a ride with my GAC...

    My Perspective on the GAC

    I have been reading a lot of what people have written about the GAC. I think I read too many negative remarks. lol I don't understand why so many people feel guilty about using it. It is something Disney offers to make it possible to enjoy the parks. We already don't get to live life...

    This. Exactly this.

    Overheard - expired FP

    That would pretty much eliminate WDW for me. There is NO WAY I could handle a full day in the park. I can do it because we can get through the park fairly quickly with the GAC. After about 3 hours, I am DONE. My body simply can't take any more. The GAC makes it possible for us to enjoy...

    Overheard - expired FP

    I know I'm new here and just jumping in... BUT it is possible to look completely normal and still need a GAC. You wouldn't believe the number of dirty looks I get for using it, or for using my handicap permit. I LOOK like a normal person, but definitely do not feel like one. Disney would be...

    So excited!! Now Doing a Split Stay!!

    With all the talk about split stays, I thought I'd do a little looking into it. Luckily, we had $1000 in vacation cash through a rewards program, and we were able to get a one bedroom for 3 nights at VWL! Now we have four nights at AKV, and 3 at VWL!!! Woohoo!!!!!

    Is the Price Difference Worth it? OKW vs. Other Villas??

    I'm expecting to have plenty of downtime. We've been several times, but this will be the first time we've ever gone full out. This year long deployment has really bit the big one. We've had so much stuff... It's kinda been unreal. We NEED a break. We need an escape. So, we plan on doing...

    Is the Price Difference Worth it? OKW vs. Other Villas??

    Thanks! I'm so excited. I can't wait to see the kids' faces. :cool1: And really, I think I always wanted to stay at the AKV anyway, so I'm happy.

    Is the Price Difference Worth it? OKW vs. Other Villas??

    You're definitely right. :) I can't wait. It's been a looooooong year.

    Is the Price Difference Worth it? OKW vs. Other Villas??

    Well, a decision has been made. Dh just told me he's getting home a week earlier. YAY!!!! (that's enough reason to keep me smiling for the next month!!) There was a VALUE one bedroom available at AKV for the same price as the OKW room! I know we're going to be in a much smaller room, but I...

    Is the Price Difference Worth it? OKW vs. Other Villas??

    I am so indecisive. We currently have a one bedroom at OKW booked. I like the size, and it is the cheapest. BUT I have read that the BCV have the best pools, and AKL has the savannahs. It seems a lot of people don't like OKW. Is OKW worth the price difference? What is special about it...

    Military Promotional Ticket? About activation..

    We have annual passes, and we had no problem with getting them for grandparents to use. We just explained at the window, and they said no problem. :)
