    Leave Car at DVC Resort?

    We did the same thing at Boardwalk a number of years ago. We had driven down in our own car but was with a group who had chartered a bus. We asked when we checked in and they gave us a new parking pass that was good through our 2nd say after the cruise. Asked us to park further out which we...

    Scared to cruise now....anyone else?

    I've been cruising since the 70's and on my very first cruise we visited St. Thomas 2 days after a cruise ship in the harbor had a massive fire and they had to evacuate. When we got into St. Thomas the ship was still there. Didn't scare me then and none of the problems ships have had haven't...

    Treehouse Villas

    We had a treehouse in the south end in March and loved it. We were right near the bus stop though we never really used it. We had an easy walk to both the boat dock and the walkway to Grandstand (which we used when we went to the parks). Loved having our own BBQ and threw a party for 20+...

    Aulani- online check in, or not?

    Chris - we did online check in followed by a call to Member Services to add a request of room location. We arrived right after lunch, were greated at the car and was told our room was ready. We were given our leis, offered some water, escorted inside for a brief tour of the lobby area and then...

    Official Dancing with the Stars - All Stars

    My votes went to Tony and Melissa. Derek is great but getting too big an ego - he thinks he's above the rules.

    Favorite Christmas Movies?

    White Christmas I just watched it Friday night. It wouldn't be the holiday season without seeing it.

    Info & Poll: 2012 DVC Merry Mixer. Who is going?

    If anyone is going to more than one and would like to share one of the ornaments I'd love to have one. We've got many of the past years but aren't going to WDW this holiday season and since Doorway to Dreams closed in Schaumburg I won't be able to get one there. I'll be happy to reimburse you...

    Big Bang Theory last night...

    He was playing hackey-sack and when he dropped it he turned to the board and said "I'll never get to 43 again". :rotfl:

    online check in choices for Aulani requests

    We did online check-in followed by a call to Member Services to put our request in for an upper floor. When we got to the resort (about 1:30 or so) we were met at the car and never went to the front counter. We were welcomed by name, given our lei's and escorted into the lobby for a brief...

    Aulani Villas & Views -- REVISED 07/22/2017

    Diane it really wasn't luck. We booked seats on that side of the plane to get the shot if possible. Here was the lucky shot when we went in 2007. We had won a trade-out through II on one of the Member Cruises and picked Marriott Ko Olina. As for the request. The only option I remember...
