Well said! Have you tried to explain it to someone???? You get deer in the headlights looks.

I've tried. I have sent youtube videos. I have shared the photo thread.......

Don't you just love the feeling you get when you walk into the WL???? For that reason, I can't stay anywhere else! 24 more days for us

Yeah, I just feel at home! 29 days for us!!!!

 

[nathanyell]

First free WiFi and now pods!

Yesterday, on another thread, I asked if someone could tell me if the new Pod coffee makers are now in the WL rooms because many on the WL thread were asking. elaw was so kind and helpful and actually posted a photo for us that they took last night!

Great detective work WDWKOOK! Even better was the link to the Christmas Tree! Got me even more excited!!!!!

I do not have an answer for you. I checked the front page of this awesome site. WDWKOOK has a picture of the pool rules and there was no mention of life jackets

If no one is able to give you an answer you might want to try and give the WL a call. Once again from the front page....1-407-824-3200

I don't recall ever seeing life vests at any of the Deluxe pools, however, they are available for free for the length of your stay from the marina.

Thanks...I did check the front pages before asking, and did a search and couldn't find anything. My biggest concern is that this pool is not zero entry, and my girls are not yet independant swimmers...life vests would be most helpful.

You're welcome. Besides using the vests from the marina, there is a kiddie pool they could use. I believe it's only one foot deep:

It seems to be similar to this model's description:

Cuisinart "Double" coffee pod brewer. Brews two cups at a time! Compatible with most standard coffee pods including our Cuisinart Private Collection Pods. Compact design, easy pour lid, auto shut off. UL listed for home or commercial use, 1 year manufacturer warranty. Great for Hotel or Bed & Breakfast in room coffee.

So is this compatible with Kcups? I might pick some up if that is the case!

I don't think so because they suggest using these pods in it:

Awesome!!! Thank you!!! I did make one change though, my girls insisted on the bunk bed room, so I did get that.

 

[annmarieda]

Oh, ok... that makes more sense. In the email notification I got you had the pod/kcup written. I assume you since edited that out.

Thanks for answering my question

Good idea switching to the bunks - it also makes the room feel a little larger. How many nights are you at the Lodge?

Yep - at 0600

You're welcome and I'm glad I could help.

We just stayed last week and had the new coffee maker and it definitely isn't compatible with k cups. They did not have pods in the rooms though. We had the little 4 cup coffee packets and regular tea bags. I wasn't amused one evening when the CL lounge was already closed

Was it after 10 that you tried to get coffee in the lounge? That's strange that they didn't have the pods. You'd think the 4-cup coffee packet would not be right since the new maker brews one single cup at a time. I wonder if they're trying to use the old ones up

10 nights at the Lodge in July!!!

Oh, I see it in your signature now. I guess that means we should be staying 25 nights instead of only 13

Do it!!! I double dare you! Yeah, I'm not sure how well that planning strategy will work after the 10th anniversary.
