PS. He snores like a bandit so sticking with Mr. Nannette may be a better deal....

LOL.... this has me rolling


Staring out my window at work watching the snow come down... My car is already completely buried Dreaming of but don't know when we will get there. We just determined that we probably will not be able to go this year as my sister will be due about the time we were planning on this summer... But a new niece or nephew will be here

We are heading out to our first Disney cruise in just about three weeks so that is exciting. I hope we love it as much as BC

Keep warm everyone

Well, at least you have a positive attitude! It can only get better from there!

But I figure it is like getting thrown from a horse. Only thing to do is get back on!

Sending good vibes all our ways that our next trips are healthy!

Thanks everyone. Sounds like lots of us have had trips that were not-so-great. MickeyT - totally agree with you about getting back on the horse. That's why we have our "redo" trip scheduled for this August. We also had the dining plan, and wasted so many meals. I think it might have been our last experience with the dining plan. Looking into Tables in Wonderland for our next trip.

Sorry that your trip was miserable. How sad that everyone was sick.

We had one trip when my oldest son was ill. Dehydration, I think. We were at All Star Music during Tropical Storm Faye for that trip.



The low-light was missing seeing my youngest son at Jedi training while I was back in the room with Nate.

Our redo trip was our first at the Beach Club.



Glad to see you have a new trip on the horizon. AKL only? Don't see a date on the other ticker.

Thanks Dee. How sad that you missed his first Jedi training. A trip to Disney has to include the BC for us. Not sure why the ticker blocked my dates, but I put them side-by-side, so hopefully it shows now. If you could include us on the BOG list? We are going August 8-17 (we extended our trip to make up for our last), with the 8-12 at AKL and 12-17 at our Beach Club "home." Thanks Dee. Hoping I can catch up on your trip report later.

Less than 24 hours after we arrived, our DD caught the stomach bug and was quite ill. Every family member was ill at some point, and I stayed in the room with the sick people. So, I spent most of the rest of the vacation in our room. I spent a bit of time on our balcony, which had a partial view of Illuminations, which was nice. We did have to cancel our coveted Be Our Guest reservation that took me 2 and a half hours to reserve. But, on the plus side, we did meet Teena on check-in day (so sweet) and our next trip has to be better than this one. We also got one half day to check out the new Fantasyland, which was really wonderful. Looking forward to catching up as I read some of the last few pages.

I'm so sorry for your vacation! I can only imagine the planning and dreaming of your vacation and then to have it turn out the way that it did

I hope you plan a do over trip to make up for that one - you deserve it!

Welcome, new posters!!! Hello YC/BC fans!

We're just two days away from departure, and I tend to close up the Dis when we get to the final packing stages, so I'm making a last call for YC/BC missions - photos, questions, etc.! Let me know what you need and I'll add it to my mission list!

We're staying 8 nights and slowing down the pace, so I may be able to send Dee a photo or two for posting during our trip.

Yuck for all the "sick on vacation" stories. Happened to me on the drive from San Francisco to Newport last year - was awful. Fortunately, the trip was long enough that I had some "well time" at the beginning and at the end. I second Mickey T's do-over trip recommendation!

I am not a fan of this weather, there just aren't enough layers! LOL

Hi. Have not posted in a while but I've been getting through the ice cold weather by dreaming of the Beach Club.

We bought premier passes that must be started before the end of the year, so we are planning a Christmas trip.

We were at the Yacht Club for Christmas 2008 and we loved it. Hoping to be on the Beach Club side this time, but will have to start looking at prices to see what we will do.

Anyone who had a holiday visit this year, would love to hear "must dos"

Definitely check out the Christmas lights that the folks staying at Fort Wilderness Camp Grounds decorate their spots with. We planned a dinner in the area (this time it was Kona) and then we took the boats to get to FWCG. We booked a carriage ride but you can easily walk around to see these magnificent lights.

Hi... Trying to decide between Beach and Yacht Club. Does anyone know if the deluxe club level rooms at the Beach Club have a wall separating he bedroom and sitting area are there 1 or 2 tvs?

Thanks in advance for any input!

When we stayed Deluxe CL at BC last year, there wasn't a separate sitting area- the day bed was directly across from one of the beds but there was a lot more square footage overall. There was only one tv.

Pixarmom - have a magical trip! Can't wait to hear all about it. If you get a chance can you check out if BC Marketplace still has the cold turkey sandwiches? Looks like they are off the menu at Hurricane Hannah. One of my dd's just loves the turkey and mozzarella sandwiches.

We stayed in a deluxe club room in 2009 - no dividing wall but definitely a lot more space between and beds and sitting area than a regular room. Only one tv. HTH.

Thanks west&East.

I just realized that my signature said I was at BC from Jan 1-22! I WISH. What is the longest anyone has stayed? (Our actual stay this trip was 4 nights 18th-22nd)
