CR now shares with WL and then goes to a water park afterwards. The bus is empty when it arrives and it then goes to WL after CR.

Thanks for the correction and update!!

Unfortunately, after talking more with DH, it turns out CR is not going to fit into our plans this year. we're moving our ressie to WL, which is nice - but I've been dreaming about that 10 minute walk to MK. *sigh* maybe next time.

WL is great and CR will be there for another visit. See you on the thread

Just hand off your iPhone, or whatever you have that records, to any CM there and they will gladly record it for you and/or they will also take photos for you using your own phone or camera.

Safe travels and I hope you have a magical vacation.

Thanks for the correction and update!!

I was surprised by this new route in March and April during spring break. I didn't ask about it so I don't know if it was temporary or permanent. The AK and DHS buses came at very long intervals, while 2-3 DTD buses would come for every one AK/DHS bus. Then it went to WL and then a water park and finally, AK or DHS. This took a very long time door to door, but at least the bus was empty when it finally arrived.

I would think you'd get it especially since you actually requested it.

You and I will be staying on the CL at the same time! We got our luggage tags the other day. This morning I looked in MDE and it says this:

I'm so excited!

Add me to the excitement! I'll be there, too, same time, CL Tower suite!

That's going to be such a memorable and special high school graduation trip. Will she start college in the fall? I wonder where my DD will want to go for her graduation trip next year. Guess I should ask now so we can start planning

Does anyone have a picture of an open BLT studio fridge?
Trying to verify we could fit a gallon of milk plus some other stuff (fruit, bottled water, yogurt) in it-ordering from garden grocer so won't be able to check it out before buying stuff
Thanks in advance

Very cool! Maybe we can have a mini DisMeet at the pool one day!

The Studio fridges are large so you won't have any problem with a gallon of milk:

Do they still have a freezer compartment? Read a really old thread that said they did

I believe they do have a freezer compartment. But, when the small fridges were replaced at the Deluxe resorts, those no longer have the freezer compartment.

 

[WDWKOOK]

Yep, they have a freezer:

I'm sorry the CR won't work for your upcoming trip, but I'm sure you'll have a great time at the WL as that is an amazing resort .

As KOOK posted, any CM will be happy to take your picture with your iPhone or whatever you have .

I hope you get your request .

Good idea to start planning now . It's always fun planning a Disney trip, but it's a little more exciting when it's for a special occasion .

Thanks this is such a great thread you are a wealth of information

Sounds like fun. Sounds like a plan.

I wasn't sure because when I booked the cabana the CL CM who booked it for me said she couldn't guarantee which one I'd get (is there a couple more at the main pool?). She said she'd note the reservation for us so that's why I hope we do end up with one of the two at the quiet pool.

Well as soon as Photobucket starts to behave I will share the pics of this afternoon
we got to the mk and only a 10 min wait for mickey as we went through the door I passed a note off to the cm
we haven't looked at memory maker yet but they took some pretty good pics with my cellphone
but I can't say enough about how great the staff is here
we had a disaster tonight
the stone fell out of her ring over in the gift shops and we didn't realize it till we got back to the room
they had at least a half dozen cm helping us look for the stone and disney magic prevailed they found it

Well...Don't keep us in suspense! Did she say yes?! Of course she did, look at that smile! I can't believe what happened with your ring, but so glad it ended well. So happy for you both and will there be a Disney wedding or Disneymoon?


BTW, you don't have to upload photos anymore to get an image code. With the new software, you can just drag images right in to your post. You can also just select them on your iPhone and upload from your photo library in seconds.


Enjoy your engagement!

Yes, there are two more cabanas at the feature pool.
