I went to Epcot today, but it was way too crowded so I headed back to our resort.

Thanks for posting more pics. You must have been in WS before it opened. I laughed when you said Epcot was "way too crowded", and then I didn't see another living soul in those pictures. Hope you are enjoying another relaxing afternoon.

DVC Mike, is the TV in your room flat screen? I was at BCV the week before you and had a flat screen TV in my room. However, someone just posted a picture from there yesterday and they had the old style TV in their villa. Maybe BCV is in the process of changing over.

Just read Mrs. DVC Mike's review, brought tears to my eyes. As a parent of a young adult with food allergies, we have experienced some of the special attention of several Disney chefs. Just another reason we too love WDW for our vacations.

Thanks Mrs. DVC Mike and thanks Mike for the lovely pictures and sharing your trip report with us.

The first room I checked into did not have a flat screen, but the second one did.

No, the trees are blocking any view of the road.

Nice, any chance you could post a pic?

The external rehab at BWV is still going on, but almost done.

Not to hijack your thread but they are doing rehab inside too....they awoke us yesterday with noise at 7:30 and this morning the same thing but by 9AM they started hammering loudly and repetitively , pick up a nail, hammer three times...it was sooo loud had to call to ask about it , it was really bad, I am not a complainer, someone came to soothe that complain but long story short they were doing the rooms above us putting in carpet strips for new carpet and nailing into cement...they could only maybe move us to another resort, but for 2 days it was not worth it. I hope no one else is having this problem because it does not seem the rooms here are not occupied because according to the CM they will be at it all week all day long.

Are you in a standard, BW view or pool/garden view? Curious as to where the rehab inside is still in progress.

I have always enjoyed reading your posts from "afar". Thanks for another great live trip report! Relax and enjoy your fantastic vacation!

 

[momoflizandains]

I LOVE your trip reports. Your photos are great.

 

[ccigliano]

Thanks for taking us on your vacation. Can't wait to read more!

DVC Mike as usual wonderful photos, I can't wait to return to my home resort BCV.

 

[twinklebug]

Mike, tell Mrs. Mike "Wonderful Review! Thank you!" ... you do need to hand the keyboard over to her more often.

As to you Mike, shame on you for teasing us with a nearly empty EPCOT. Per usual, wonderful pics - I heard whispers there was a live stream around here... I have to go dig that out.

 

[Brave teacher]

I am so pleased to hear that Mrs. DVC Mike had such a wonderful meal at the Captain's Grille. I love to hear how accommodating Disney chefs are to those with food allergies.

I did laugh as well when you said that Epcot was too crowded for your taste, yet there was not a soul in the pictures.

I love your pictures. Keep it up!

 

[BigEeyore]

DVC Mike is at it again with great pictures and a great TR! Thanks for taking the Dis with you on vacation - have a great time!
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Kouzzina...

I got up this morning and for the first time, all my stress from work was gone and I felt relaxed.

I went for a nice morning walk around Crescent Lake, which is one of my favorite things to do when I stay at BCV and BWV.........

My fav place to grab a latte
