2012 Beach and Yacht FAQ, Part 3- Don't Post Here!!! New Thread, November 2012

[wendywoo]

I've been meaning to post these on here forever but never seem to find the time. When we stayed at BC in March, we were upgraded to a 2 bedroom suite - room 3637. These are some quick pics I took on my cell phone when we first got in the room:

The kids bedroom overlooked the courtyard in the back but I didn't get any pictures of it.

Beautiful!! Thank you!! That is my dream upgrade!! Hope you guys had an amazing time!!

Watching Isaac closely. Looks like we will have some of him Monday/Tuesday. Hope he takes all the rain with him when he leaves so the rest of the week is good weather!

Tropical Storm Joyce not far behind, but looks to be tracking north into the Atlantic. I came across this interactive map which some other may find useful (or stress-inducing): http://www.palmbeachpost.com/s/weather/hurricanes/

Another noodle note...a user from another chat board (touringplans.com Lines app) said they had extra noodles and left them under the name "Noodle Family" at YC bell services today. This is separate from the ones rediscovered a few replies back, I believe.

Thank you for all of your lovely comments everyone

We had a fantastic day with only 15 minutes of rain during our photoshoot around the resorts.

The only downside of the day was our meal tonight at Yachtsman Steakhouse. First they did not know it was our Wedding Meal (hmm strange as I can see it quite clearly on my side of the booking). I was in a seat at the window and was getting no cooling from the AC and started to overheat, I ended up sitting outside the restaurant and the manager brought me a cold cloth. I had left my filet after two bites and when I went back was asked if I would like it re-heating. I said yes and the server brought it back out to me in a takeout box not really a lot of use! We had dessert and left soon after with our undrunk bottle of wine. The service and food at Captain's Grille was far nicer last night.

I am so sorry that your meal was so disappointing, that is just horrible! I hope someone there tries to make it right for you, not that they really can seeing as it was such a special occasion. I hope that everything else is going wonderful and your are enjoying your first married day together

OH MY!! Which Noodle did you wind up marrying? You seem to have the hots for that purple one!!! Maybe you are a Mormon and you believe in Noodle-polygamy so you started out with 4. In any case, CONGRATULATIONS and the Noodles are very lucky to have you... (or is that the other way around??)

IN NM News my Mom is home from the hospital. We are trying to make her as comfortable as possible and trying to work around my Dad's emerging dementia. Fun times!

Since I've been busy attending to family matters I haven't had a chance to chime in on the last seventy-teen pages so I'll give it a shot now. It's too much work to actually go back and quote the posts so I'll just give my replies here and the rest of you can sort it out.

First, I'm sorry. About what I'm not sure but I know I am sorry. Next I think that's GREAT! If you had something that was great, I'm probably talking about YOU! The answer was $15 -$20 or hot dogs, just pick the one that's the closest to your needs. Then, the direction that I take is: AK to mini golf to the Hess Station, THEN to DTD! On the way back I go by helicopter. It's quite expensive and noisy but tipping is not usually necessary, so I'm saving there. For those of you going on a trip soon HAVE A GREAT ONE! For those of you just back from a trip, get off the ledge and back in the building! You can always go again so you'll be back in no time. Finally, I too am glad you shared that. It doesn't matter what was shared, the important thing was that sharing occurred, so keep it going!

I think that about covers it. I can't tell you how much all of your posts are keeping me sane during this crazy, difficult time. Keep 'em coming!

You truly amaze me!!! With everything going on in your life, you still are hilarious Glad to hear your mom is well enough to be home, but I cant even imagine trying to deal with everything on your plate right now.

natebenma, Glad the link was helpful!

The only universal answer I know for the coffee situation is Via. We travel frequently, and other places besides Disney hotels are in transition, too. I'm very happy just about everyplace with my little tubes of Via.

ninja mom, I know you have a lot on your plate these days. Just wanted to send along a caring thought as you work through a very tough situation.
Even during this challenging time, your wonderful sense of humor comes through on your posts. Those directions, including a helicopter, were too funny!


And finally, it's 41 days 'till I hear, Welcome Home!!!

I actually just bought a travel Keurig so that I can enjoy my coffee everywhere I go

Side note, anyone used any of the WDW apps for the iPhone that are out there?

Thanks!

I have both Mobile Magic and My Disney Experience, but havent used either in the park yet. I have heard that MDE is replacing MM, and I really do like the functions so far. I wish that I could pull my existing reservations on it though.

Well we are staying on the CL so I know they have K-cup machines in each rooms.

Thanks for your opinions on the apps. I am getting the iPhone 5 before we go so I'll load them up at that time.

Not so fast! We are on CL and have a Cuisinart!

Hi! We got home late last night. Just wanted to give the room numbers now that we have checked out.
5687 has a water view, daybed, and Juliet balcony
5709 had a water view, a large daybed, and a full balcony.
5717 (our room) had a water view of SAB and further out you could see the lagoon. Straight ahead was the Dance Hall. LOVED the view. We did not have a day bed and had a full balcony.
I will try to figure out how to post photos.

That's crazy! I just spoke with the CL planning office and they said for YC CL it was a K-cup.

Oh well!

It looks like NHKristy is at BC CL so that may be the difference.

Interesting....we are staying YC CL in April and I would be totally excited if we had a Keurig!

We stayed at POR earlier this year and had the Cuisinart. The coffee was not good (and that's being kind). I was happy that I had read the disboards and came prepared with my Starbucks Via.

I'm here!!! I'm here!!! I'm finally here!!!

So happy for you!! Hope you get to post some while you're there. I love live reports!!!!

I'm going to try! My husband is already threatening to take my iPhone away so I have to be careful. . He and my DD9 are in line for the Great Goofini so I'm stealing some time now!

 

[travelgoddess]

We will be enjoying our thanksgiving dinner at captains grill at YC!

 

[BLTtinkerbell]

No. As far as I know, it is still the Mr. Coffee-type machines at BCV. 4 cup in the studios and 10 cup in the 1BR and 2BR.

DVC friends- please correct me if I am wrong.

I stayed in a 2BR in June and had the Mr. Coffee type.

Okay! My first installment of the live report is posted. I called it NH Trio something or other... Lol!

So, bees have taken over SAB, you can't get into B&C and you can't get a No Way Jose to go. Crast members at the pool and elsewhere at the resort are incosiderate and rude. The Marketplace isn't a qualified QS location, and now HH is closing and there is only one person walking around the pool taking drink orders. The facilities are dirty and run down and there is construction all over the place. Beds are uncomfortable, the CL is small and always crowded. The bus transportation is simply terrible and forget about going to or from DTD, can't get there from here. Let's see, what have I forgotten? Oh yes, there are no phone books in the fifth floor rooms. So, why should I stay here?

Simply because of all the resorts I've stayed at at WDW, there is no doubt I've never stayed at a better one. And that's all I have to say about that.
