I bought two resale contracts earlier in the year -- 160 BCV & 140 OKW. Well, the BCV passed ROFR a whole MONTH before the OKW, but the closing company that handled the BCV contract was sooooo slow (compared to Timeshare Closing Services, which handled the OKW deal) that both ownership transfer info ended up being submitted to DVC the same week (last week)! I just learned from MS that both tranfer info has reached DVC but it'll take until Wednesday before I get into the system.
I've been so anxious to make my December ressies.
In any event, an idea just hit me -- I just thought of taking my mom to WDW over Mother's Day weekend because this year her birthday happens to coincide with Mother's Day, and she will be turning 60. Also she has never visited WDW before; she enjoyed the one time I took her to Disneyland around Xmas years ago. I know staying at DVC only for a weekend is a bad using of points (and I haven't checked cash rates yet), but I may do it anyway. But since that is a holiday weekend, are rooms all booked? Will we be out of luck? I'd like to splurage on a 2BR suite at BCV or OKW. If one of you happens to plan to call MS today or tomorrow, could you check for me to see if there are still rooms available at these two resorts? I plan to call to make ressies as soon as I get into the system, but I wonder if I am just wasting time on thinking of this last minute Mother's Day weekend trip.
