Sign in to be the Flag Family. Ask for the "Clues" to the hidden Mickeys and find them. Hint make sure to visit the DVC Lobby!

We just got back... and boy did we love it!

Go to the Cub's den between 2:30-4:00 for a free craft for kids- my daughter loved it!

We also did the pool games... there were at least two scheduled everyday and decorated cookies in Roarin' Forks (free). They give you a schedule of the events for the week! We also caught the water parade at the beach three nights!

Eat outside on the patio and watch the ducks!

The pool was lots of fun, we would swim everyday!

That's what happens when you've been wanting to go to WDW since you were a kid. You tend to go overboard when you're finally able to do it! After Oct., we won't be returning until Jan/Feb '09. We'll probably be staying at the WL again then too. We it there! We like visiting the other resorts but can't imagine trading a WL stay for one of the others. It's just a very warm, cozy place. It's HOME.
