I may never leave SAB this year - lobster/shrimp rolls and sunken treasures!!!

If they added key lime pie and the grand marnier slushy it would be a done deal!

Did I hear Key Lime pie? I'm right there with you Robyn. And a few days ago finally got my Sunken Treasure! Just had to stop by to try it. It is off the menu though, but they still have the ingredient and need to find a person e
Who knows how to make it. Luckily the guy who served me knew.

But ate at Narcossees on 1/30 and they took the Key Lime brûlée off the menu

I'm here lurking too
Quiet day everywhere I suppose!

Lol probability everyone is sleeping... Getting rest before the big game. Or shopping for the ingredients to make sunken treasures!lol

Its the Superbowl tonight isnt it? Every year I say I'm going to watch it in bed (you are 5/6 hours behind me) and then I promptly fall asleep 5 minutes in despite my best intentions

 

[Sue M]

OK, who else was dreaming about lobsters and sunken treasure?

Not me I got me a Sunken Treasure at HH & lob at Narcossees so I'm good but today making the drive home from Seattle and back to reality and planning August YC trip of course!

 

[Sue M]

You are right, that is what we have too. We are not using our room key for admission, just our paper APs. The one morning we did extra morning hours at AK they only had the RMID turnstiles out and had people touching their room keys, since we had paper tickets we were instructed to walk past them and a CM swiped our paper tickets with a hand held device.

It gets a little confusing sometimes finding the right place to enter! By the end of our 10 days we got it on our EMH morning at AK they had us go in the line for early breakfasts. I hear they may be putting APs on kttw bracelets at some point.

Thanks everyone for your responses. I just hate wasting a day traveling,even with a early flight u still don't get to the resort until 12 ish. By the time u feed the kids forget it, it's a wasted day.

And I want one whole day in the middle of our trip set aside just for SAB.

If we fly in late (land @ 8:15) ME still takes care of your luggage right? How late does it make it to your room? Anyone ever take that late of a flight?

Anyone have any problems with luggage?

We have never used ME that late, but Disney does say that it can take 3 hours to get your luggage to you. I would suggest you collect your own luggage and have them load it on the bus with you. That way they aren't knocking on your door at midnight.

Well, we did it. In just a few hours I will be paying our deposit for 9 nights at the YC CL. It's been too long since we've been to WDW. This isn't the trip I originally planned, but we're going!

I'm pretty sure you need to land by 10pm for DME to take your luggage. The one time we used DME and landed late (around when you are planning to land), our luggage arrived around midnight. We were staying in a villa and I was ready to wrap myself in a towel so I could wash my travel clothes because I was convinced they had lost our luggage!!! But arrive it did!
My last 2 solo trips to Disney I arrived late and just picked up my bag myself before heading to the bus.

We *almost* became BCV DVC members. I called about a resale contract yesterday but it had already sold. Now that I have permission to buy a resale BCV contract though, I'll be more aggressive...

There's a "Easy Linking Option" Through Photobucket. That's the best way. I use the iPhone app and it works. If you look at my "Recent Posts", Dee and I were talking about it. It's like User Settings-> Albums-> Easy Linking.

Yes it is. It's like a big holiday here in the states!!! Lol even if your team isn't in the game there is a party... I couldn't stay up either if I had such a time difference!!! I personally don't watch it I sit in the family room with everyone watching the game surfing the dis boards...lol

Yay for you too..... Where did you say the first time you went? It's also our first time at the YC and club level. But not at a deluxe resort. We stayed at the Contempory and Animial Kingdom Lodge. I'm thrilled to be walking a distance to two parks..
