@WDWKOOK - would you please add me to the guest list? We'll be staying at BWV for the first time for just one night - 3/8-3/9 - before we move to AKL. Two weeks to go!
I'm new to the boards... what is this "guest list" I see people referring to? I guess I would like to be on it too. But I won't be going until 11/26 so a bit early.
OK thanks for the info!It's the "Boardwalk Bulletin" in post 1 of this thread - a place for people to share their trip dates. There are already some on the list with dates through December 2017, so you're not too early!
Reservations are now open for the new character breakfast at Trattoria Al Forno. Although the website has not been updated with information. The rumored price is $34 for adults and $20 for kids, and will be 1 TS credit.

Tried to book a breakfast the first week of May. Saw the time slots available but could not complete the reservation. Looks now like they are all booked. Oh well, we have other character breakfast reservations booked so I'm not too broken up about it.
I am sure "the feeling" will last into your later years. We have been going to Disney with our kids since they were very little. This is our first trip with out our grown up daughters with us. We will miss them...but we will have a blast!! Enjoy your trip is well.YES...I think it's perfectly normal. I'm not quite to my 60's, but I always feel like a kid at Christmas and this isn't my first trip by a long shot. We leave on Friday, and last night already I couldn't sleep due to the anticipation. I hope this feeling lasts long into my 60's, 70's and 80's!!! Have fun on your sister trip.
How exciting! Enjoy!We are 4 days away from our stay at BWV! We can't believe it's finally here! We really can't believe we get to take our almost 1 year old for her very first trip! Can't wait!!!

Keep trying! Sometimes openings occur because people cancel.Tried to book a breakfast the first week of May. Saw the time slots available but could not complete the reservation.

My BFF and I just booked a standard room at Boardwalk for our Wine & Dine half weekend 11/1-7. We are very excited to try a new resort!
Hello, everyone. I'm just re-joining BWI thread. We currently have a moderate reservation booked for Halloween time frame, but if AP discounts come through, we may be able to switch to BWI.
In the Fall of 2016, my hubby and I celebrated our 41th wedding anniversary there, and then I was able to comeback for a quick Christmas-time trip with my best Disney travel buddy, (mainly to see Osborn Lights one last time...snif snif...). We're hoping we can swing it again, but it all depends on Special Offers! If Disney follows their historical pattern, AP discounts SHOULD be announced around April, so we're just waiting, not-so-patiently.
Now, I need to go back and catch up on any new stuff at the BWI since our last visit! Just wanted to drop by and say HI!!

My DH is booking BWI right now for 9-9 --9-15. It'll be the first time we'll be at Disney without children since 1990! It's kind of strange planning only with our interest in mind. I think we're going to book The Keys to the Kingdom tour. But I'm not sure what else. Any ideas for an adult only trip?
Did online check-in yesterday. WooHoo!
(Also bumping this up from the 4th page!)
I've been on a Disboard break for a couple of months and I'm still catching up, so do forgive me if this is an old and tired question, but what work did they do to the pool or slide? Did they give the slide a new (non-clown) facade, perhaps?! We were just there in December and we all fell in love with BWI (after trying 5 or 6 other deluxe resorts) and can't wait to return this November.

We were planning to do a split stay BWI 3/25-3/29 and YC 3/29-4/1. Only reason we were moving was b/c friends were coming down for the YC part and we all wanted BC but couldn't get it so did YC instead. They have now backed out of the trip so my DH wants to stay BWI the entire 7 nights. Of course, it's not available for all 7 but it is for the last 3 we were planning to move to YC. My questions are, 1. can I call and simply have my reservation changed from YC to BWI (room only- already paid) for those same 3 nights without cancelling and rebooking? and 2. how likely would it be that they will make us change rooms if we have the same category booked (SV)? Thanks!

Does this mean I could be the first one to post with dates in 2018?? After renting DVC Boardwalk points for a studio in December, DW and I bought into DVC at the Boardwalk. We will be back in a one-bedroom boardwalk view 01/21/18 - 01/27/18. Now when they tell us "Welcome Home" it really will be our "home".
Agreed. Trattoria was one of the few restaurants where you could get a decent breakfast at a reasonable price. They have now taken the same scrambled eggs that used to cost $12, given it a fancy name, and raised the price to $34 because of the characters. I understand the attraction of these kinds of breakfasts, but how many times can a family of 4 spend $100 for breakfast. Never mind that Cape May, a 10 minute walk from the Boardwalk, already has a similar breakfast.Maybe I'm in the minority, but I'm sort of sad to hear that Trattoria al Forno will now be busier in the morning! We love how quiet the Boardwalk is in the early hours of the day, and how, if we had a morning we were skipping rope drop, we could have a really nice, quiet breakfast. The crowds the character meal will bring will surely be good for the restaurant's business, but I will miss the quiet vibe and the option of a nice, sit-down breakfast that isn't a big, character-filled, kid-frenzy deal.
According to the description on the Disney World website it looks like it is one serving only.Does anyone know...for the new character breakfast at Trattoria will it be an all-you-care-to-eat like the Garden Grill, where they bring you more if you want it? Or will it be like BOG where you just get the one serving of whatever you order? Thanks!
