Bunnies and mooses and groupies, Oh my!!! The Wilderness Lodge groupies thread. 4.0

[JESW]

Are there any pictures anywhere of the FOOD they sell in the store?? We have stayed at VWL before but I can't remember what they sell. We have used Garden Grocer in the past to deliver to our room, but sometimes the food gets left behind because we don't eat it.

I am specifically looking for milk, bagels, cream cheese & frozen pizza for my VERY picky ds.

Thanks for any help!

Jill...who will be at the VWL very, very soon!!!

 

[KAT4DISNEY]

Maria - Good to have you back! Here's a big hug for your daughter. Starting college and having all that heartache going on is so tough.

horselover - Shi looks great! You deserve to be a proud mama!!! I'm glad he's feeling better.

Cerigirl - good luck on your waitlist. WL/VWL is just gorgeous during the Christmas season!!! I hope it comes thru for you!

 

[jimmytammy]

A big WELCOME(in VWL colors of course) to the new groupies!!

Horselover, you have one beautiful horse there. I can see why you are so proud of him

Hi Jill.

I know that the Mercantile has milk, bagels and cream cheese. Not so sure about frozen pizza but I think so. It is a very small food area with a couple of cooler doors and some shelves in the back of the gift shop. Pretty much the basics, but I think it will have what you need.

Roaring Fork (CS at WL) also serves individual pizzas so you should be in good shape!

Enjoy the Lodge!

Muushka, MaryJ, jimmytammy, horselover,Happydinks, Disney Loving Iowan, Dizny Di, eliza61, and Kat4Disney......thanks so very much for all the kind words of support. Means so much to me.
I was just in this funk that I'm slowly trying to get out of. Things are getting better gradually. I mean there was a moment when dd said she wanted to come back home. Kids were so much easier when they were little ! A fast forward button would be very good indeed. My daughter actually said that to me.

Glad u all have been having fun with our thread . Love all the pics and tivia from eliza. Congrats to your dd on the the birth of your new granddaughter !

Well Maria you mean so much to us! You are a valuable member of the groupies and it just wasn't the same without you! I remember how hard the first 3 months were with DD crying all the time from colic. Now I look back and think that was nothing compared to the teenage years!

You guys are just too smart for me!! Right you are Dad!

My answer was going to be that I wish I was standing at any of those places!

I like that answer! Is Haunted Castle in DL Paris (only been the WDW & DL sofar) or is my internal Disney map malfunctioning at the moment?

Yes, they do have the haunted castle! Called the Phantom manor or something like that? The design there is similar to the HM at DL.

A great day and Moose Dust to all the groupies!!

 

[Muushka]

THANK YOU!!!

I just didn't go back far enough!

I still don't see your Moosie. He is wondering why you have not taken him home yet???

I have just wailisted a VWL Studio 20-23 December for 3 nights. We are booked into SSR for these nights already, but fingers crossed we get VWL. We are staying at AKV for 5 nights, SSR or VWL for 3 nights, then BCV for 3 nights,followed by VB for 4 nights then home.

It looks so cosy and pretty - I am sure Christmastime there is just fab. I am not too sure I will get the waitlist - but you never know.......

We have eaten at Whispering Canyon Cafe, but never stayed at the Lodge or Villas, so really excited!

Sprinkle me some Waitlist Pixie Dust please......

It is wonderful during the Christmas holidays. Pixie dust that your get to experience it!

Glad I didn't answer --- I only had ONE right! Some DIS fan I am!

Me too, don't feel bad.

Hi All, I just posted this thread http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2289951


And it was recommended to come here for some exciting info! Does anyone have some pictures to show me of VWL……I’d love to see

Thanks

I have switched computers and my pictures are on my old one. I am hoping one of our Groupies can post some. If you look back throughout the thread they are all over it. Welcome to our thread! Grab a rocker and stay a while.

There is a new app on the iTunes app store for DVC planning.

It's called, strangely enough, 'DVC Planner.'

It provides:
Points required
11 month and 7 month call dates
180 day and 90 day call dates

Hello everyone..........can anyone tell me if the VWL share a bus with anyone of the other MK resorts? as I'm doing alot of research I see that the Boat transportation is shared with the Contemporary????? right??????

No, the boat transportation to MK is not shared anymore. When it was it was shared with FW but that ended almost 2 years ago. There is a separate resort boat that operates between CR/FW/WL.

As for busses - yes, some are shared. I don't believe that the MK one is but Epcot is shared with FW and AK and DHS usually makes stops at other places like GF and sometimes the Poly and of course Blizzard Beach.

I seem to be having "technical issues" and keep getting the little red X instead of the moosie!! I have tried it in my signature AND my avatar!!

I'll keep working on it and will resolve the issue eventually and can then return to the thread with my head held high!!

 

[bellazachmom]

LOOK! LOOK!

I did it!!!!! I am a proud owner of a Moosie and an Official member of the Group!!

Now I just have to figure out how to get my home resorts in my siggie!!! Oh well, I leave that for another day!
