Congrats that the job is a definite! That is great news
We really like the Contemporary. Have always stayed in a wing room though because it's cheaper & close to the pool. But we don't usually pay for a view. At AKL, we did Savannah view because that felt needed. We were very tempted for TPV at the Poly but have never done it; would rather spring for CL with a garden view.
CR and AKL have good CS. We like both resorts much better than WL. If you were swayed over to YC, you might be able to get a CL standard view room cheaper than TPV tower at CR, and that would solve your CS issue. Whether CL is worth it to us usually relates to how much time we're planning to spend at the resort.
We love the energy of the CR. it's like the pulse of WDW goes through the building along with the monorail. Hopefully a good deluxe discount will be out when you're looking to book it.
I'm looking forward to getting back to chatting with everyone once we make it a few more days & are past the holidays. We are still in the midst of visiting. Have another holiday dinner tonight. I think I may never eat again once 2013 rolls around
