DVC Mike Live from BLT (12/5-12/12/09)

Great stuff Mike! Thanks for bringing us along!

I'm coming off of my latest DVC high since I just checked out of our shared CA home yesterday, enjoying my first stay in the new DVC wing in a studio at VGC - and it was incredible. Too short, but incredible. I know you'll enjoy it when you go back out there in 2010. The rooms, the view - wow. I liked our view before in the standard hotel rooms (we had a DTD view), but this one - wow. Can't wait to go back myself in the summer.

I bought enough points at VGC to stay in a 1-BR for a week every other year. Since I get my first set of points in 2010, my first stay will be in 2011, and I'm really looking forward to it.

We decided to have breakfast at The Wave this morning. It was very good. This is going to become our standard casual dining TS every time we stay at BLT.

This morning, I took a leasurely walk from BLT to the MK, past the MK to end the of the walkway where it reaches the canal next to the GF. Very relaxing, especially compared to the mobs of people entering the MK.

Have a wonderful time! We agree about The Wave! Had a few meals there when we stayed at BLT for the grand opening and each meal was great! Can't wait to go back in a few weeks!

For Day 3, we just might set foot in a theme park. We'll probably walk over to the MK.

Wow, the Mickey wreath is awesome when illuminated
