Divas, Zebra Domes, and Pixie Dust! A Week in an African Paradise! New TR Link Pg.145

[Blesseddaddy]

WHEW.......CP, you had me worried about the Pixie Dust and saying it was soon after you arrived ON property........I mean you had left us driving SLOWLY toward the SIGN........I was afraid you were going to say that Charles quickly fell back asleep after snapping the picture!!

The resort and your room looks awesome and what a wonderful way to start your Vacation!! I am excited that as soon as you arrived at your dream resort that things were even more Magical than you expected!!

Great update and it sounds like the trip is off to indeed a Magical time for you and your family!!

OH, and since I am here......might I suggest that my FRIEND, Shocker invest in a CHEAP tape recorder........and next time he BUYS Wigd. some MORE DVC points that he records her telling him how wonderful he is and how much she loves him!! That way in the future when he needs to hear it, he can just play the tape back and $ave a bundle instead of having to add on more points??

Hi
Just checking in for the first time, I think, I read so many TRs that sometimes I don't know which ones I've posted on.

I could totally feel your excitement pulling into AKL. DH & I stayed there in 2002 by a great twist of fate. We were booked at CBR when they closed the whole resort for refurbishment two week before our trip, as a reult we got a savannah view at AKL for an addditional $20/night. At the time that was $124 less than rack rate !! AKL was still brand new. It's the only Deluxe we've gotten to stay in, our budget is more moderate resort. Just looking at your pictures I can feel the peacfulness I associate with AKL and I can recall the smell, I can't wait to read more about your trip and hopefully more about AKL.
Thanks for the memories.
Lynn

PS I think we could be neighbors

WOW...now I'm thinking at some point I'm going to have to stay at AKL...what a beautiful resort! I can't wait to check it out when I eat at Sanaa. YAY for the upgrade I'm sure you guys were completely thrilled...so did the kids turn Stacey on first?????

Great job Jackie...I could really feel your excitement and I can't wait to find out which has the greater force...sabers or ears LOL

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Oh I would have LOVED to have seen your face when you saw your gorgeous view! Did you dance, did you squeal? I sure would have! Gotta love that pixie dust!

 

[KathyRN137]

Jackpot!!!

How wonderful for you!!

I know I've said this a million times (and will probably say it a million more! LOL): AKL is just beautiful and I can't wait for the day we stay there. I had a flutter of excitement just looking at your lobby pictures! And then when I saw that beautiful pool view all I could do was say "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

I'm voting for the mouse ears. The Mouse if more powerful than the Force.

 

[Lady Lallie]

Oh what a wonderful upgrade! That is just truly wonderful. It's so beautiful. I can totally feel how excited you were. Hehehe.

 

[disneyfan61]

Enjoying your TR!! We love eating at Boma & those zebra domes!!
Cannot wait to hear the next installment.

 

[TarzansKat]

Oh, hon! I'm so excited for you and all your "jaunty" ness! You well deserved it. It's an amazing feeling to stay in your dream resort, and I'm glad that your check in went smoothly and you got a nice upgrade!

 

[julezdisney]

I love it and I love how excited you are!

And I say............. ears!

 

[PookieB]

Awesome! What a beautiful upgrade you got!

 

[xoktenox]

Jackie, OMG that viewwwwww How amazing that you guys got upgraded!!

Your pictures are getting me sooooo excited to step foot into AKL and know i'm staying there too! I think the light sabers might beat out the ears....

 

[Hedy]

What a snazzy upgrade!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Yeah for PD already! I love your resort pics! I guess I didn't realize there was a pool view available - really nice! I love how you are feeling so "posh." We all deserve that once in awhile!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Quite easy to get used to this "deluxe business" isn't it?? I am ecstatic that you got an upgrade! No one deserves it more!

What a view!!! Didn't you love the pool?

When you left the kids were they watching Stacy? I hear there is a new version of the "top seven." I am so sick that I actually can't wait to see it!

Light sabers or mouse ears. Let's see... what will win?

 

[micandminforever]

Great pictures, and great upgrade. Ears over the force.

 

[carissanboys]

Well, I asked Chuck which town he stayed in the other day, and he thinks it was something like Coventry? But, I couldn't find a Coventry, Georgia so I don't know. He said the town was about 20 miles north of Atlanta.

Anyway - I'm all caught up! Your first installment had me laughing - REALLY!

And how awesome for the upgrade and what a view!!

 

[MRYPPNS]

SCORE!!!! Pool View

 

[DWGal210]

Upgrade, baby! WOO HOO!!

That lobby is something else...I am so pumped to get there!!! Hope you left some of the magic for me!

 

[kschafer]

NICE UPGRADE!!! What a view.

More, more, more (thanks for the FB pics, I loved the preview )

I know that wigd loves me very much!
She tells me that every time I buy more DVC points or mention booking a vacation!

Gee, I think I love you too!
