    Magical Express Question

    We are going for a quick trip in June. Usually we don't do the parks on the travel day but since this is a short trip we are heading to EPCOT. If you have your bags go directly to the resort, can you get on a different Magical Express bus? We are staying at Wilderness but would like to take...

    vacation ideas...help!

    i agree with HHI or Disneyland. Your kids are perfect ages for both. HHI has a great beach & pools plus lots of fun activities by the staff. Our kids really enjoyed it. They still talk about the campfires and will occasionally start singing - "The Moose, The Moose". Disneyland is also a...

    RCI Options

    We are considering trying to use our points this summer for an RCI exchange. We have never done this before and I was wondering what advice people had. I know this is not the best use of points but my husband refuses to go to Florida in the summer and we did California last summer. We have...

    Exlporing beyond our fav Deluxe!

    I think you will enjoy a stay at BC/YC. My kids love Stormalong Bay pool. It also is a great location for getting home after the night events at EPCOT and MGM. We also enjoy the performers at night on the Boardwalk and all of the food choices including being so close to the countries at...

    Best property for 16 year old

    My 16 year old daughter votes for BW or BC! Our last two visits we planned late and so we could only get OKW & SSR. Both times she brought a friend. Of course the friends were impressed with OKW & SSR but our daughter wished we were at BW or BC. She likes BW or BC because you can walk to...

    just back from Disneyland!

    We could see into some of the DVC rooms since we were very close to them. Furniture was being brought in one of the nights that we were there. They still had a lot of landscaping and outside work to do. We wanted to go take a tour of the model but it was over by the Disneyland hotel and we...

    just back from Disneyland!

    We had a great trip using our points at the Grand California. Here are a few quick comments - 1) The weather was amazing! warm during the day (not too hot) and cool at night. We even had to buy sweatshirts. 2) The crowds were manageable. I would guess that they were better than DW...

    Beach Club vs Boardwalk

    We own at BW but have stayed at both. I will try to answer - 1) You can not use Stomalong Bay (pool) at BC if you stay at BW. This pool is large and popular so it has been restricted to only the YC/BC. 2) Breakfast - BW has a great bakery on the boardwalk and Spoodles offers a sit down...

    Help undecided Poly or Beach Club??? Vote

    I voted BC! Here is why - 1) Friends are staying there. We have stayed at the same resort as friends and our kids really enjoyed it. We did not do everything together but it was great to be at the same resort. We have also had friends staying at different resorts and we really did not see...

    Just Back - Disneyland Hotel on points

    Just Back - Disneyland Hotel on points

    spaddy - When we checked out our bill was $0 so I do not think we were charged for anything! We have never had a 0 bill at DW :)! The room charging was not as easy as at DW. We usually use our room key and charge all our meals to the room. At DL they give you a room key and a piece of paper...
