    Has anyone heard about Disney's direct interest

    Does anybody have an idea of how many people actually finance directly? With those rate? Boggles the mind.

    Venting and ranting: What happened to the shishi odoshi?

    I still love the Japan pavilion, but when did they remove the shishi-odoshi? And did they remove a few trees between the pagoda and the Yakitori House? That was my absolute favorite place to pause and recharge. It was possible to wander back there, listen to the sound of the creek and the...

    Possible buyer looking for CONs

    I am doing my research in advance of a possible DVC purchase and hope that somebody can help answer a couple of questions: 1) Does it make sense to ever book at one's non-"home" resort? For example, we are interested in buying into the Grand Floridian but recognize that we would sometimes...

    Number 9 is really FINE! Welcome to AKL LITE - the 'unofficial' FAQ Thread

    Been hanging out at the AKL CL for the past few days... wasn't sure what to expect and how it would compare to the Polynesian CL. It's just as fun. Not quite as whimsical and I'm not walking around with a dumb grin on my face like I did at the Polynesian, but this is one heck of a beautiful...

    Number 9 is really FINE! Welcome to AKL LITE - the 'unofficial' FAQ Thread

    Heading to AKL CL in a few days. Does anybody out there know if the AKL has published the list of resort events for the month? If so, do you happen to have the list to share? :)

    Oswald ears

    Do the park stores sell child size Oswald ear hats? I find it odd that the Disney store site only has the adult size available. No child's size.

    Concierge/Club Level Information- Part IV, July 2012

    :yay: This is, perhaps, the best tip I've heard on this board. Is it just the Animal Kingdom Lodge concierge lounge that offers them? Please don't tell me I could have been tipping them back at the Kamehameha Club for breakfasts when I was there. :(

    Movies missing from the parks

    :furious: Nooooo!!! I didn't know that they had done that to the Swiss Family Treehouse! Back on topic, I remember meeting Robin Hood characters at Disneyland in the early 80s. My kids love that film as much as I did and I wish Robin or Marian would show up somewhere at Disney World.

    Gross things at WDW

    I feel fortunate after reading this (and the old) thread. The worst thing I've seen was an old couple on the monorail. They were sitting directly across from us, got up at the stop for the Grand Floridian. The man was wearing white shorts and as he was walking off the train, we noticed that he...

    ALOHA! The Polynesian Resort Information Thread: September 2012

    A thread on Tiki Central is triggering this question: Has anybody been in the Tangaroa Terrace building lately? The last time I was at the Polynesian, I was told that there was nothing left in the building other than the kid's club and that all of the classic artwork produced by Oceanic Arts...

    Finding what you owe for resort on website

    Aha. Mystery solved! Thanks for confirming my sanity. This was really driving me batty so I ended up prepaying over the phone.

    Finding what you owe for resort on website

    Do you guys happen to have a credit card associated with your Disney account? I don't. And I wonder if that's the reason I don't see a link for payment. This would be a strange design decision, but it's possible. I go to the Disney site, click on My Disney Experience, then select "Customized...

    Finding what you owe for resort on website

    Argh... I have the same question as abk. I took both suggested paths, but don't see a "pay balance" link anywhere. I should be able to pay in advance over the telephone, correct? Are there any limitations on that? I ask as I saw a post on the Disney Mom's Board that mentioned something along...

    Polynesian: Pics of updated rooms Hawaii

    Editing: I just noticed that they kept the Tom "Thor" Thordarson prints in the guest rooms. Glad to see that they kept them! I just wish that I could buy a print of "Hukilau" or "Polynesian Day."

    Concierge/Club Level Information- Part IV, July 2012

    I had the same question as osugal. This is good to know as I didn't know that the CL staff could assist with room requests. Does anybody know if it's best to solely call the IPO to re-iterate the request or should I also call the resort/main reservation line, too? And is this something...

    What's the latest word on the Grand Ceremonial House? Has the resort announced when it will undergo refurbishment and what will be impacted?
