I had Shower Gel at BWI in August. In fact, we used it as bubble bath for our "after parks" PJ party!
That makes me remember how much I loved that BLT whirlpool tub
Just returned to NY from my first stay at the lodge! Wow is all I can say! We were upgraded from a standard view to woods view, room 4102. It was literally a two minute walk to the bus stop and less than 5 to Roaring Fork and the bus. It was sooo convenient for filling our mugs in the mornings and afternoons.
The busses were amazing-- we never waited more than 10 mins, and it was usually less than 5. We took the boat a few times to the MK, which was lovely at night.
The room and the resort were so peaceful and beautiful. And for those of you who said it wouldn't be our last-- you're right! We booked a bounceback for September 2014! Already can't wait!!
What a great upgrade. Congratulations on booking a BB!
Just here for a quick therapy session.

I've rebooked my stay for the 3rd time...and I leave Sunday! Originally I got a courtyard view at the regular discount but a few weeks later was able to get a woods view to save a few more dollars since I'm splurging for WL this trip. I missed out on the AP discount when those were release but have been checking daily for something less than a bunk bed room to show up. Persistence finally paid off today!

Found the woods view AP discount available today and called to rebook and add QS dining.
WOOHOO! Check in with us if you can and have a great vacation

Loved staying at the Wilderness Lodge... most-likely we will be heading back in 2014 before our youngest turns 3 and we officially become a family of 5 according to Disney and we will be forced to stay in a suite...
Loved hearing the lobby music, the bubbling "hot springs" and that empty bus was great! Hope you get to book your next stay soon.
Actually, I'm a "she"

I'll try scoping out the housekeeping carts tomorrow and see what I see. It could be that they are temporarily out. This is just the first trip at any deluxe where I haven't had it (had it here at WL in January, and as recently as July at Poly).
Oh, and they were installing different drink machines at Roaring Forks today, and had the Rapid Fill signs at the cashier with the prices.
I should know better than that having been referred to as "he" a few times on the DIS. Not an excuse, but for some reason I thought you mentioned 'DW' over on the CR thread years ago, but obviously, I had you confused with someone else - my apologies

. I hope you get your shower gel soon. They do have it in the Mercantile, but you shouldn't have to pay for it.
Quick question:
If I ordered some things off the internet (I live in Mexico) and they arrive at WL on wednesday and se arrive on monday, will I be charged storage for them?
TIA
Bienvenidos! I've never shipped anything, but I believe they will hold it until you check-in at no charge. Only the Convention resorts with Business Centers charge a fee at pick-up, but someone correct me here if I'm wrong. Also, make sure your reservation number and arrival date is on your package.
LOL! No the Lamborghini was yellow. Heck the Ferarri wasn't even Ferrrai Red, it was black. I would like to drive on the Nurburgring as well but the closest I will get is in Gran Turismo on my Playstation.
![yes ::yes:: ::yes::](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/yes.gif)
YES I would recommend the EDE to any one who has ever dreamed of owning cars like the ones they offer or you want to see what an exotic car can really do. The cool part is you get to really open it up and see what it can do, depending on how much you are comfortable with. I have no fear pushing it and I had a blast! All the cars offered can be driven in automatic mode or with the flappy paddle shifters (Top Gear nuts will get that reference) and I highly recommend flappy paddle shifters. The Lamborghini was not as smooth shifting as the Ferarri though it is still exhilarating.
Here is the link to the post I made for my experience last September with the Ferarri.
We now return you to our regularly scheduled Lodge broadcast

Thanks for the cool photos and link with even more cool photos! No mannies, huh? Well, that's too bad, but they're becoming a dying breed. What will you choose next year?
We had a great day today, but being at WL I guess that's no surprise. It started out at AK, so Allie's dress was a Mickey Safari dress.
Melissa also took a few more Lodge pics at sunrise:
Then this afternoon we had the pleasure of meeting up with R2-JD and LuvGoldens in the lobby. We had a great time chatting and then had dinner together at Downtown Disney. They got a proper introduction from Allie
The Exotic Driving Experience sounds amazing, and is on our must do sometime list. It was great to meet fellow DisBoards WL friends.
Love the meet & greet photos and hey, isn't that our favorite goat? Affection Station is the highlight of every AK visit. Allie's dress must have gotten many comments. Thanks for more photos!
Hi All
we are going on our first WDW adventure all the way from Australia in October/November this year. We were going to be staying at the Caribbean Beach Resort. For various reasons we decided to change our res and have now booked the Wilderness Lodge. We arrive 30 Oct and stay for 12 nights. We are doing Mickey's Halloween party and also the first Christmas party. We have booked a Courtyard room and are really hoping for a lovely view. When we first saw the photos of WL lobby and outside, it reminded us allot of Grand Californian. We stayed at GC in 2010 which was our first Disney visit and a very special trip for us, so when we saw the pictures of WL we knew that was the place for us. I found the picture thread for WL and it only helped solidify our decision and now know it was definitely right for us.
I started reading this thread at the beginning and got a few pages in, but as it was started quite a few years ago I skipped ahead to about page 100 but need to go back to the beginning.
It's now 45 days out till we leave and 50 days till we start WDW..cant wait!
What a terrific switcheroo you made, (not to be confused with a didgeridoo). Congrats! Did you also see the
WL photographic TR I posted Sunday?
Let us know if you have any questions
ETA: JD and Paul sure have the makings of some great Christmas cards!
