Hope you are having a blast... and hope Buzzy lets you enjoy yourself

Hi everyone,

Just checking in again. What a great couple of days. I have to say these park hoppers are the way to go! The past 2 days we have hit all 4 parks. My kids love being so close to Epcot and HS. Tues we spent the morning at AK and loved it! The lion king show was incredible. That night we were at Epcot and had a fabulous dinner at La Hacienda! It was so good. Then we bribed the kids with ice cream so they would sit through Boys to Men. Lol. The concert was awesome! That was "the end of our road" for that night though. Lol. Yesterday we had FP+ at MK in the afternoon but we decided to hit HS first thing and see what we could accomplish. Worked out great as we were able to ride TSM with only a 10 min wait and then Aerosmith 4 times. Fun! We had the best lunch ever at Beaches and Cream with of course yummy milkshakes. Headed off to MK for the afternoon and then an early dinner at 1900 Park Fair where Anastasia tried to marry my 11 year old. Lol. They were hilarious.
We were beat last night so we hung out swimming and then DD and I watched the movie in the beach.
Again, this has been the best vacation I could have ever imagined. I can't imagine staying anywhere else for our family.
Thanks for letting me share! Laura, I will be looking for you today!!! If I miss you have a great time!!!

So happy your trip is going well

Hi everyone,
I have not had a chance to catch up with the thread. But did want to stop in and say hi! We had a fabulous vacation! Busy but fabulous!
Teena- thank you so much for the advice, helpful hints and just saying hi! I know you are headed to California. Enjoy your trip! It was wonderful to meet you!

Beach Club was amazing! Loved our room! Loved SAB! Had a blast at the parks. Enjoyed the restaurants. And enjoyed our family. We were fortunate enough to get a rezzi at BeOur Guest (thanks for the link) and our lunch was a lot of fun in the West Wing! Would love to be able to stay again soon.

Thanks again everyone! I plan on stopping by again when life clams down a bit and my laundry pile return to normal!

Glad you had an amazing time

Post 15: Be Our Guest list

.

I added a day to our March reservation. Our new dates are March 19 - 25, 2014. I figured we needed six nights at the BC GV in order to properly relax and enjoy it.

Apologies. I know this is not strictly Beach Club, but I am staying there in April and you are all so lovely that I thought you may help with a quandary. On a certain day in April I had planned a Animal Kingdom day, sleep/swim in the afternoon back at BC followed by dinner at Akershus. However when I phoned to get a preferred wishes they could only get us in on my Ak day. Therefore I'm thinking we should go to AK in the morning ( it's a EMH), have lunch there (as our main meal), chill/sleep at BC and then go to MK when'd we are ready. So my question is if you were on the standard dining plan where would you go for lunch at AK? We are a family of 5 (me, DH, DD9, DS7 and DS4). Thank you and I'm sorry if I shouldn't have posted this here x

Tusker House has a great character buffet. You could do lunch or breakfast. It is one TS credit and well worth it. We had breakfast and it was delicious. I've heard that the lunch is very good, too. And the characters are Donald, Mickey, Daisy and Goofy. Your kids are the perfect age for it, too.

OK, I'll make the adjustment to your listing.

What is the golden birthday? I know in anniversary-speak, Golden Anniversary is 50, but I doubt your daughters are hitting the half-century mark.

I didn't learn of it until it was too later for me (I would have been in my twenties), but it's a big deal to my spouse. It's when your birthday, as in the date, happens when your age is the same as the date, so for my girls, they will turn 8 years old on the 8th when we get down there.

We are 24 days out from my trip and I haven't gotten out Mickey Mail yet? Are magic bands affecting it? When is everyone else getting there mail??

 

[TeenaS]

Excited. We are packing for our California trip. Lily is sooooo excited!!!!! I just ordered my magic bands for our Fort Wilderness Cabin on 11/6. Should be a fun day at Epcot followed by Bob and me at the cabin. Never seen one inside.

The Magical Express luggage tags usually ship around the 30 day mark. I would call in a day or two if they don't arrive soon.

The FW cabins sound like a lot of fun. I know someone who always stays there with her grandchildren.

Checking in quickly to say that I love the BC.

CL service has been outstanding. Sean and the staff have been amazing with the kids - we can't believe what they've done to make sure their birthdays are magical!

Yesterday was a big day, but lots of fun. Epcot in the am, back to BC to change into costume the off to MNSSHP. Much more crowded than last year's party, but great. Even got to meet Jack and Sally before we left - almost at park close! Needless to say, I'm the only one up.

Off to HS today, then a restful afternoon and evening at BC. Loving it!!!

My sister stayed at the cabins with her girls and my oldest son when they were young. They loved it!! The kids especially liked the bunk beds.

Have a great trip to California!!!

Hi everyone! I'm staying at the BC next week for the third time (can't wait to be back!) and will be using the International Gateway for the first time. I was planning to do evening Epcot EMH and wanted to make sure that we can exit through the Gateway as well even though WS is closed? Thanks!

A similar question...if we use International Gateway as our very first entrance to any park this trip and we have problems with our MB, is there a guest services type location there? I've never paid much attention at that entrance, having never stayed at an Epcot resort before and just bopping in and out to the Boardwalk area.
