But you go to Disneyland, right???

Yeah, the plan is to do a trip at least every other year. WDW is harder because we have to fly. Of course, it'll get easier when we aren't dragging the teenagers along with us.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's

But, I could be wrong ...

I totally hope you are right!!!

We bought into BLT in February 09 and then just recently purchased an add on at Aulani in November 10. We only have 275 points and for the amount of times I WANT to go, we honestly don't have enough points.

We only have 100. It's not enough. But, with having to put two boys through college in the next decade, I didn't want to commit to too many dues payments.

 

[lilliansmommy]

The amount of points we have, we can hardly get a one bedroom once a year!! We have never stayed in a one bedroom. We just have Lilly, who is 2 and a half, so for now, we can get away with a studio.

I wish there was a way to check it online. Can we view the reservation at DCL.com? I'll have to check later.

I hear you there. I am scared to death of paying for Lilly's school. I am still paying off my own undergrad and masters. It is really sad how much school costs.

Ohhh, hold on, I have the paperwork here I think.

We're staying at OKW in a 2 bedroom for 11 nights. I'm using all of 2011s, borrowing 2012s, we banked 30 from 2010 and I did a transfer to get another 16 to get enough for this trip.

Yeah, and the cost is going up and up and up. Not to mention the value is going down!

I LOVE OKW!!!!!! We just got back from there last month. Met Terrie and Wally for lunch at Olivia's!!

I found someone on *********** who was looking to transfer 16 points for $10/pt. That's exactly what I was looking for. It was super easy.

 

[lilliansmommy]

Getting close now, Karen!!

I'm looking forward to trying it. Do you think we'll need a reservation during free dining in Sept?

Ok, guess that's filter on the Disboards. LOL It's another message board site. There is a rent/trade forum here on the Dis too.

NOPE!! Doesn't hurt to have one though.
