2011 Yacht & Beach Club FAQ, Part III- DO NOT POST HERE- Summer/Fall

[hill6]

I appreciate the packing tip! I'll put that at the top of the list. For me or the kids???

Both I think.


I hope the love bugs mellow out. We leave in two days and I remember love bugs from when we lived in FL.

Oh the Noodle-manity........

Depending on what time you leave on the 30th, that's a Sunday so I think I'll be there.

End of October is usually nice and still warm. Note I said "usually". Only Mother Nature knows for sure. As far as crowds, its F&W so the weekends in particular will be super crowded at Epcot.

As to what to request on your reservation, it's entirely up to you. If you want a full balcony (which might be a good idea while the babies nap), then definitely add that request to your reservation.

Thank you Teena for your reply. We are leaving early on the 30th so I'm sorry I will miss you.
If October is usually nice and warm, what would the exception be? Really cold?
Thank you natebenma for adding us to the list.
I'm still in the 'planning my packing' stage, but definitly looking forward to the BC

PLEASE READ TITLE OF THIS POST!!! VERY IMPORTANT!!!

We interrupt your Beach Club Resort thread to bring you this important announcement:

The Lovebug population took a strong blow several days ago at Disney's Popular Beach Club Resort. A guest (who has since been revealed to be an actual Beach Club Resort Employee) was seen going BERZERK and beating the popular bugs. Lovebugs are SWEET INNOCENT bugs that also frequently Florida for honeymoon like vacations. This so called guest (and assumably part time Disney villain) had had enough of the LOVEly bugs interrupting her card game and sharing her drinks - SELFISH!!!

Wildlife experts had hoped the Sweet Little INNOCENT Lovebugs would make a comeback, but alas it looks like they have taken a fatal blow. Authorities are looking for said employee, but so far have had no luck. They are trying to locate a picture of her on security cameras. Authorities do know that the suspect goes by the following aliases: Tanya, Maleficent, Evil Queen, Cruella, and oftenly just "Bob's Wife." The perpetrator has also been seen pulling a cart filled with phone books. Authorities believe she took them from all of the club level rooms. If you are staying at the Beach Club please verify that your phone book is present in your nightstand drawer. If it is missing please call the concierge who can look up any number that you want.

If you have any information that would lead to the arrest of this dangerous person, please call 1-800-WDW-CRIME!!! A pixie dusted reward will be given to the 9th caller with the correct information.

And now badk to our regularly scheduled thread.

She wasn't assaulting the love bugs with a... Gasp! N O O D L E.... was she???

Too horrified to type more,

I could totally see Tina doing this. There have been unconfirmed reports emanating from the cruise ships about a woman sneaking up behind unsuspecting children and stealing the cherries from their "Shirley Temples".

I think the important thing to ask is "WHERE IS BOB!?" when all this is going on in the first place. Can't he keep control of her? I guess she probably waits until he dozes off or a Soccer game breaks out and then she sneaks off to do her dirty deeds!

I thought she was beating them, with the phone book, in the lobby?


Or was it Col. Mustard, with the candlestick, in the Conservatory?

Lovebugs are pretty much done. Teena got most of them with her stolen pool noodle. I think I saw 3 all day today.

It seems the perpetrator has had Bob fooled for years. He was next to her when the incident occurred. Here's a sketch artist's rendering of Bob now. No one can shake this look off his face.

He is more of Teena than ever!!!

So that's why they were back out in full force on Friday....they had been in hiding until Teena and Bob checked out!

Teena---I hope you and Bob have a wonderful time on your cruise!!!

I can relate about JCAHO. I can remember all the truly stupid things we had to do to pass inspection. The best part was that the inspection was supposed to be a 'surprise' even though everyone knew about it for days in advance. Then someone would call and announce "they are coming to your department NEXT!!!" (Surprise!!)

~MM

Last week was a periodic performance review, basically a "mock" survey that the hospital pays for. Unfortunately for us, our "real" surprise inspection is to be completed by October 6, so the surprise has to be one of the next two weeks . Last week's surveyors gave out a long laundry list of things that need to be implemented ASAP, and a number of them affect the pharmacy department, whether directly or indirectly. Some of them we have been trying to address with management for quite some time now, so at least our wishes may be heard now, others just have me shaking my head. I have today off because I work this weekend, so I'm spending it at my part-time Disney money job.....too bad I don't have enough in the Disney fund to escape back to the world for the next two weeks!! I knew I should have looked harder for that secret vacation closet!

Oh the Noodle-manity........

I can just SEE Teena running around SAB with a noodle smacking the love bugs. Children crying because their noodle was stolen, Bob holding off the angry parents (with more noodles) to help Teena. SAB has gone bizzurke

You just had to know that the pool Noodles would hear about this. I know they were very concerned when they heard that Teena escaped from the lobby but I think this (latest) incident surpassed even their wary expectations.

The scuttle butt is that Pastina is taking all this with a grain of salt since she is the more practical type but Paul is a mess, especially since that incident where he was unknowingly sent down that slide at SAB. Naturally they have decided to withhold this information from the kids in case Teena comes back to the pool area. Ramen is a bit of a bed wetter and they don't want to aggravate that situation with bad dreams about a deranged bug swatter who LURKS in the lobby. Penny is glued to her cell phone and Justin Beiber magazines and is completely oblivious.

OMG!!!! That did me in! Cola ALL OVER MY MONITOR SCREEN!
MM, you ARE too much! LOVE IT~!!!!!

 

[ocalla]

MM you seriously crack me up!! are you like this 24/7? Your family must stay in stitches .

I am just sitting here, feeling totally HOMESICK for Disney today. It seems like next June will never get here. Is it completely horrible to be wishing away the days/weeks/months???

I can't wait until It gets closer so i can make my reservations, add a countdown ticker, and start planning our days.

Daydreaming away in LA!!!

 

[DisneyMomx7]

Dee - sounds like a great trip to Disney to me!!!!

I think you are the kind of chaperone that the kids will love to hang with.

Even if it's not BC - IT'S STILL DISNEY!!!!

 

[bookgirl]

Sorry guys, got distracted. Last day at BC and we decided to do AK. Since this was the first day we would start at park opening we decided to grab guick food at the market place. Adult French toast and ham, huge portion, toast sticks were a little soggy but tasted good. We also had the ham,egg, and cheese croissants, tasted good a little heavy on the cheese. We also had a bag of grapes, not so good and a apple which was good.

Just did the biggies, plus a lunch at resturantasaourus. We had the luau later at the poly so we just split two meals between the three of us. Cheeseburger, and chicken nuggets. The luau was a little cheesy but really fun, and great food.

Wednesday morning it was check out from the resort. Check out went very smooth, getting out of the front entrance not so smooth. They are painting the front and under the cover and they are set up with lifts and equiptment right in the morning when people were trying to get cars from valet , catch transport and taxis, it was very crazy and just not well planned. I dropped my parents at MCO, checked into POFQ, and then headed back to BC. I spent a little time doing the last of Epcot, thout about swimming, but decided to pass. Picked up one item I had in bag check (the noodles were there waiting for sweetpea) then headed away from BC.

After all was said and done.

LOVED:
Walking to Epcot
Atmosphere
Pools (we actually preferred the quiet pools)
Food at the resort was easy and tasted good

DIDN'T LOVE:
worst shower head ever(thought it was just the type, but have the same at POFQ and it's fine there)
Didn't get to use the balcony. Besides the cranes and construction we were on two and the patio of marketplace was right next to us we could hear every word and practically touch them.

We liked the resort, and would stay there again no problem. Love bugs are almost gone. Now I didn't see any noodle whacking but what was done after I dropped off the noodle family well I can neither confirm nor deny any rumors. I will tell you that I did see many love bug stucco motifs on the newly painted white surfaces.

For the experts or experienced. Can we have our boarding passes printed at BC or is their a place to "check in" to our airline?

We have stayed at CSR and CBR in the past, at CSR we printed our passes in the convention area and at CBR they checked us in right at the resort. Does BC offer either of these services?

Thank you

32 days to go!!!!!!!!!

Glad to hear that. Just over six hours of work left today/tomorrow before we go to Disney.

We checked our bags and had our boarding passes printed at the stand on the left (outside) as you enter the BC (on the right, past bell services on the way out). It was very easy and convenient. SWA was our airline.
