Well, at least now I can get excited because we check in to BWV this coming Saturday! Although just in a simple 1 BR BW view.

We are staying at Vero Beach for the first time this year. Only a short stay as a trial so fingers crossed it’s everything we hope it will be!

First time for us this year too!

They do a number of turtle launches throughout the summer, but it is tough to find out information about the one at DVC Vero Beach, as they purposely do not advertise it too much.

Yup. We live in a place where there is a turtle nesting monitoring program. There are strict protocols about how to handle that. It's not publicized here either, yet somehow there's always a big crowd when a nest gets dug out.

I hope you really enjoy it!

And, speaking of VB, after checking in for 4 nights at BWV this coming Saturday, we are heading to a 1 BR villa at VB for 4 nights for the second half of our spring break trip next week. I'm excited about it too!

I'll be sure to post a trip report after my whole week .

Amazing! Look forward to hearing what you think about both resorts. We will just miss you at WDW seems like. We land on April 11.

Liking the GV!

 

[JulieBeeRN]

For larger groups, I've found it useful to plan one or two "events" each day that everyone will do together, and let folks kind of follow their noses the rest of the time. Some people are early birds, some people night owls, and everyone tours at a slightly different pace.

Great ideas. Thanks! We have two 5-year olds to consider too, so I figure that it's best to plan light than over plan. It's not like we don't know our way around Disney to make any last minute changes.

Liking the GV!

The space and views are fantastic. The primary bedroom/bathroom & kitchen layout should have gotten someone fired when they proposed it. I’ll just leave it at that.

Wasn’t it designed by a Clown? The dude had even put his likeness at the pool slide.

I just spent $30 on a vest for a costume. So now I HAVE to got to MNSSHP! No way I’m spending $30 to just wear it once.

Knowing me I will end up at Oogie Boogie since I said I definitely wasn’t going to it again this year.

Good morning! I am jealous of all of you that are just around the corner of your vacations! May the crowds be ever in your favor!!

This is another reason I think the cabins really miss the mark by not having in-room washer/dryer. You have to bring your own towels to the pool...and then you can't even wash/dry them in your room when done. Big bummer for those who enjoy swimming, I'm sure.

Wait, wait, wait...the Cabins don't have laundry?!!

Never staying there.

I love - LOVE - doing laundry on vacation. Peak luxury.

If anyone is willing to share....when is your next DVC stay and where? (You can be vague on dates or location for privacy reasons if you want.)

We are just under 3 months away from our next DVC stay. We will be at VGC in mid-June for 6 nights. Our first time in a 1-bedroom there! I'm so excited about it. For fun, I will occasionally just look at pictures or videos of the 1-bedroom to get hyped up about staying there. I know they won't have any extra refurbishments by the time of our trip but that's okay.

RIV in the fall...and it's our first adults only trip with another couple! And our first time staying at RIV as official owners. (Stayed there twice before on rented points.)

I feel both excited...and sad...we really do love our Disney Family Time with the kids.

But we will be back a month or so later for our annual extended family trip, so I can't be too sad!

Every time I entertain CFW for a stay, I have to remind myself of both this and the fact that they allow dogs there. I'm a dog lover through and through, but I do not like staying places while I'm on vacation that allow them.
