What a beautiful pic! .
Isn't it! I wish it still looked like thatWhat a beautiful pic! .
VGF people.: another coffee option is to bring a can or bag from home. I like simple 8oclock or maxwell house but you could get a bag of dunkin or Starbucks. The key is to not use the Florida tap water. I buy the half gallon water at the resort and that works fine.
Of course somebody willing to fetch is great too!
For BLT /VGF stays I do bring a few items from home. I like juicy juice boxes, gold fish crackers, cashews or almonds etc for snacks. We buy eggs, butter, bagels oj, milk etc at the resort for quick breakfasts.
I found the links I donated on page one helpful. It's nice to see the different view choices.
It is a beautiful resort and wish we could go back but it's always sold out
Congrats on becoming DVC members. We bought 200 points at the VGF last July and stayed for our first visit there in June. You are going to absolutely love it!
What a good DH ..Gasparilla's has quite a nice selection of breakfast items too...fresh cut fruit platter...and the of course Mickey waffles...
Great pic!! I'll be enjoying that view of GF from Poly soon!!View attachment 114697
It's not that far ... honest!
Blue, i do remember the blue and white striped beach chairs and lounges. Oh, for the good ol' days!
@Maddie's Nana the lot across the street from the GF is now only for employee parking. During our last trip, they directed us to self park in a lot on the far left side of the convention center. Hope this helps.
I agree...but let's keep our fingers crossed for close parking spacesThanks GF Girl. I think that is better than crossing the street.
Hello!
Getting ready for our second stay at the Floridian in a few weeks.
Last time we went, our daughter was breast feeding, but this time around will need to buy milk. We will have a car if we need it, but was wondering if there was anywhere at the resort to buy a half gallon of milk?
Thank you!
Is this to set up the texting that lets you know you're room is ready? Hope you have fun on your trip next week! It's our first stay at GF next month too!
I don't know if you'll see this while you are at GF or not, but I'm wondering if GF CL still leaves beverages in the fridge after hours?? I know they did in February, but so many things have been changing!Lol! Cute story! I agree I know I have been on the path bar hopping with dh or beach/shop hopping with dd and I don't remember lights yet I don't remember being scared either. I'll be there soon and will check!!

Our second stay at The GF is quickly approaching--less than 3 weeks! We just found out that my husband will be needing a scooter this trip. We're staying in RPC. I've requested the same room we had last year because we loved it so much! Do all of the rooms accommodate Scooters? We're staying 7 days, so I was thinking of using one of Disney's recommended scooter rental places rather than renting in the parks. If I have a scooter delivered, will it change the room choices?
Getting closer!!! Received the e-mail to set up texting. . We are not telling our DGD and her friend about going to Disney. They think we are going to the Space Center. Also DD doesn't know we are staying at CL. Love secrets!!

I don't think the scooter will affect your room request either, but you can always ask the IPO. If the room you like is close to the lounge and elevators, perhaps noting that you will need this because you will have a scooter will increase your chances of getting what you want?? But if someone checked into the room you want before you, not even that will help, so make sure to note what it is that you like about that room (was it location, view, etc.?) so that they can assign another room you will like if that one is occupied (perhaps the same room exists on the floor directly above or below??).Our second stay at The GF is quickly approaching--less than 3 weeks!
