At WL now...

[exit30]

This has been a great trip so far. Flight was on time, we did online check in for the WL and went smooth as silk. We booked woods view with the 30% discount, when we got to our room, shazam, upgraded to courtyard view without even knowing it.

Boma at 5pm was desolate, seriously, the most empty I've seen it, no line for the buffet. Epcot today was busy but we got on Spaceship Earth in 15 mins., Maelstrom was pretty much walk on. Very little line at the Japan counter service.

The weather has been outstanding, not too hot but plenty warm for the pool. Friday plenty of empty tables, but today very busy so we went to the quiet pool, found a table no problem.

The wifi has worked flawlessly both on my laptop and phone, great move Disney, some of us need to be connected.

This trip more than solidifies our love of WDW, we immediately called and booked Sept. on bounceback.

WL! We were there in Jan, and got upgraded to Courtyard too. Awesome. I wanted to book our BB at WL for Aug, but couldn't get anything except bunkbed room, so we booked pool view at AKL for Aug.

I'm glad you're having a great time! I hope to stay at WL sometime next year! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for posting your mini TR, exit30. I have found the room assignors at WL to be fantastic - they are consistently generous with their upgrades, which really reflects well on the resort. So glad to hear you were able to book the BB.

We were there earlier this month and found the WiFi to be just great at WL, but terrible at BWI. Glad to hear it's still working well.

Enjoy the rest of your vacation!

I have a section of the first page/post #1 of the WL thread that has a WL room rehab update. The link is in my signature.

So jealous! Wish I was there right now.

Hi! Glad you're having a great time

I'm wondering if you could tell me whether or not you've noticed this ceramic coffee mug in the shop in the lobby? I bought one when we stayed at the WL in 2005 and I LOVE it, but just broke it last month.

Next month we're going on a Disney cruise that stops in Port Canaveral for day, so we'll be going to the Magic Kingdom, and if they still have this mug at the WL we'll take the boat over and get a new one.

Thanks so much!

LOVE the Lodge!

How have the buses been?

 

[MinnesotaMouseketeers]

Glad your having a fun time . WL is my favorite resort.

 

[GaSleepingBeautyFan]

Yay for your upgrade! The courtyard view is my favorite at WL.

Have a great rest of your trip.

That mug was there in August 2011. We were also there earlier this month, but I can't recall seeing it. Hopefully, the OP will be able to tell you. This photo is from 8/11:

The buses were great over spring break.

Congrats on the upgrade! I was wondering though if you had made any room specific request? Wonder if it affects whether or not you'll get any pixie dust.. We're going in Dec and I'm always dreaming of an upgrade lol

Congrats on the upgrade! So awesome

It is currently not available and not sure if it's coming back (according to the CM i spoke with) .... I stayed there in April and wanted to get another one (I have 1 already) but all they had was the the other style which is nothing like it.
