Sold my original AKV contract last week (still have 100 points there) and just bought 160 pts at BLT. This morning. We are very excited. We hope to be able to sweeten our deal at next weeks webcast. Keep your fingers crossed for us. We paid $115 per/pt. I am hoping to do better.

I think that post you quoted was from 2008 and referred to the temporary 100 point minimum add-on that went into place in early 2009 for a few months; as far asI know nothing is currently announced about coming Jan. 15 (2010).

I did see that it was an old post, I didn't realize it at the time. Thanks.

We have always wanted to stay at the Contemporary so when they offered the deal last summer we jumped in.
I just made our reservation for the free cruise and BLT MKview for next October! We cannot wait!

Any suggestions for a hubby who snores? Besides the obvious (stay at pop century). Plus I would like to bring my dog Minnie, but I don't want to keep her awake with my snoring either. Thanks for your help.

I just found this thread this morning. We bought 270 pts at BLT. Yesterday I mailed the forms in and made reservations for October 2010!!! I'm so excited!!!

You could leave them both at home and then noone would hear anyone else snoring

Welcome home to iwrbnd! What type of room did you book for October?

make em sleep on the patio with the fireworks.

I had some great experiences with a couple CMs this past trip. One was at the Wave, what's the best way to give her a gold star now that I'm home?

There was a really nice bus driver I wanted to do that for as well, so I'm listenitng too! (I wrote down their name, loop, date, time, & bus # so that ought to be enough!).

I wish I would have done something like this once before, but at DL. The powerwalk leader at Grand Cal. Hotel one morning in mid-Nov. 2008 was discussing Space Mountain CA vs. FL and Big Thunder + Matterhorn. I was planning to skip SM in DL (I hate negative Gs / down hills / drops of more than maybe a second) but on his advice I tried and LOVED their SM!!! Unforuntaely I have no idea what his name was anymore, but I could narrow it down to one or two days...

I would say get a studio and give your wife a Grand Villa (keep the dog safe and sound at home with no snoring)

We are checking out of BLT tomorrow. We absolutely love BLT. We were on the skybridge earlier. On one side was the MK fireworks, the other side was the outdoor movie (Snow White tonight).

We've watched the Water parade most nights. The lounge is truly incredible. We wish we could wake up every morning and watch the lake come to life. Watching Epcot fireworks while I type this.

I never knew how many different activities there were on Bay Lake until this stay. So happy we bought in. Have to go and finish watching the Epcot fireworks.

Whats the water parade???

Whats the water parade???

its behind you, watch out!

it's like a venetian night thing, they have little boats that come out with lights all over them, like an octopus and a freight train. it's no wishes but it's pretty cool

 

[jundland]

The floats even play music if wishes is not going on.

Think "spectro-magic on water"....I haven't seen it in years - but I doubt it's changed too drastically.

Oh and my husband and I bought in yesterday...we are SO excited. Although our first DVC trip may actually be to the BC (we're bringing my parents and that is their favorite...they're not huge on change)...so we shall see! Either way, November can not come soon enough!

my favorite dvc resort yet! i love it.

the security on the outside doors was not working when we were there and the doors were open for anyone to enter. i did think that a little questionable but did not ask about it.

Just returned from our first trip home to BLT. The reviews and pictures I've seen so far just don't do it justice. It is SO opulent, updated and beautiful; it was truly breathtaking.

We added on additional points on this trip (Merry Christmas to me ) as I knew we would always want a MK view. I am now a happy DVC owner of 450 pts (320 @ BLT) which is just amazing to me, and I am so thankful. Prior to BLT being announced, we were looking to buy in 100 points @ OKW, my how things have changed

We bought BLT in October 2009... our first trip home won't be til October 2010. We used to own BWV, but sold a few years ago (what a stupid mistake) Anyway... we are super thrilled to be at BLT... we have a 2 bedroom with the Magic Kingdom view... I need a countdown clock, lol...
