Yeah! We got to the DVC portion!
and congratulations!! Sounds like a great deal to buy. "Only" $600 down for 250 pts??? Hmmm...
Those magic fast passes they gave away sound so cool!
I am hoping we can work out a girls trip too!!
I know you've been waiting patiently
the deal is good til end of November... When we started our paperwork on monday, Gib said they've already gotten word that it's changing (and not for the better)... just sayin
take the tour in Dec... get the free ice cream and magic Fastpasses... it only took a little over an hour, and that's b/c I talked Gib's ear off!! plus, they'll drive you anywhere after... if you go from DTD... by the time you would have waited for a bus and rode back to your resort, you'd already be done with the tour!!
Here's to the Girls Trip... we'll have to think of a snazzy title
What an exciting post!!!!!! LOVE the giraffe pics, they are my absolute favorite animals and you got great pictures, love the one of him peaking from behind the tree!!
AND DVC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW, I'm SO jealous!!!!! We've been going back and forth for at least a year but with the way the economy is and being a one income family, we just don't know that we should do it. But when I read your post, you got my wheels spinning AGAIN!! My poor DH will be hearing about this again today!!! lol!!
Congrats on your purchase and your future trip in July!!!!! How exciting!!!! Btw, LOVE birdie, too!! Very cute!!
Thanks!! I've been going nuts waiting to get to this part of my TR!! I wanted to tell everybody SO BAD!!! That's probably why I've done so many updates in the past week!!
A fantastic update! You took some amazing AK photos.
Buying into DVC is so freaking exciting!! Yahoo!!!!
Thanks! Now that your starting 'double trippin' ...hmmmm maybe it's time for you too
just sayin.... Once you see that Bathroom...it'll all be over
7 times on EE
. The most I have done is 4 (trying to get a pic of the Yeti). No wonder your legs were wobbling.
WOW, congrats on the DVC membership. What a fun way to end your trip.
I thought I was going to faint... seriously!! I can't believe that I never took my camera out to try to get pics!! next time
Yeah for DVC.
I think you will love it! Looking forward to the your exciting conclusion!
I posted my "I'm In!!" thread on the DVC board on Monday because I was ready to bust, i was so excited!.... I figured you'd find it
and was suprised when you didn't! Oh well...at least I didn't need to swear you to secrecy!! I may be PMing you with some DVC related questions at some point too BTW. Sorry to bug you...but you started it
Wow, wow, wow! Yay for DVC
I am so jealous! What day was your last day? I think we may have just missed each other on EE if you were there on Friday. A third swing and a miss on our solo trips. Oh well, next time. You are going to be done with your report soon. wow. Now, time to start PTR for your first "I own it" DVC stay and your girls' trip.
I WAS there on Friday!! Rope drop til about 1:30ish when I left with DVC!! Did you use the SRL for EE too??? I love the stuff in the regular queue line, but just
couldn't stand in it, when I could basically just walk on!! When I got off my last time there still was almost no one in the SRL... I looked
I'm going to have a hard time deciding which trip to PTR.... The July DVC trip with the "un-disney" boys (DH and DS) OR the big Grand-gathering trip in November... which guarenteed will end up as some interesting TR reading!! Plus I'm going to need help from all you for that one. 4 adults, 4 kids... half have never been to WDW before... My DBro and DSil are 'replacing' Xmas for their boys (15 and 10) with this trip
So it HAS to go well!!
Hi Paula,
Great updates! I really enjoyed them, especially DAK. I love that park. Seems that my family is ready to head out after a couple of hours. I would love to spend more time there.
Your pictures were awesome! I am bound and determined to take a class or something to learn how to use my camera to its fullest potential. If I even come close to the fabulous quality of the ones that you took, I will be thrilled!

I could spend DAYS in AK... I don't know how people can say it's a half day park
I love that it has all the details that we expect from Disney, but is SO different from the other parks!!
practice taking pics of EVERYTHING!! different lighting, weather, seasons... buildings, people, animals... the more you take the better you'll get! promise!
That's the best thing about digital... you know right away which settings you like/work best!!
