DVC Owners Among Us?

[barrie]

We've been DVC members sinch 2000. We have 150 points at VWL but we've never stayed there! Too much like Oregon for us.

Hey Saxton - if your points are too much for you feel free to pass some my way! Barrie

The first time we stayed at WL (before the Villas were built), both of us thought it was a lot like being at Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood...well, except for the skiing on the glacier part! We love the feel of it, but bought at BWV instead to be close to Epcot and the Studios (we need our afternoon breaks).

Thats a lot of points!!!! Good for you

Tony -- It is a lot. But we do have a long term goal of trading out for the African Safari.

We share the OKW and VB with my parents, but I see us getting full control of them sooner than later. We used points to go on the DCL May Repo cruise to California, a couple of visits to Disneyland -- somehow we figure out how to use them.

We did rent our 2005 Use Year out to others to help recover the costs of obtaining the SSR contracts and a rather hefty onboard bill from the May Cruilse.

We own at BWV, BCV, and SSR. 870 in all.

Only regret is not joining sooner than we did! We own a small interest in Hilton's vacation club too but are much happier with Disney.

And Connor's proud grandparents with 400 points as well!

 

[disneynutt1225]

We have 225 points at SSR, and that's after my 75 pt add on this past summer. All of our '06 points are already used, and I think I'm only going to have 20 left to bank in '07. I've got add-on-itis really bad, but I think we're going to hold off doing another add on until we have a "little souvenir" to take with us (in other words, we've got a few years, LOL).

Barrie - thank you for the kind offer but I think somehow I'll find a way to use them all!!

 

[jwhitmyer]

may as well add us. 200 pts looking to add on at BCV. Just returned from there Jan 8th... planning another trip for Sept/Oct. Members since 2002

DP Maddy and I bought 155 points at BWV for our "Fifteen Days and Nights in Walt Disney World for our Fifteenth Anniversary" trip in 2000. We are eager to buy points at Contemporary, too, if DVC will just cooperate. ;.j

Our next trip will be Dec 4-16, 2006. It will be our first trip home in three years, and let me tell you, we are READY.

My partner and I have 210 points in the Beach Club since 2002. We are going on our first Disney Cruise on January 28th, 2006. Any tips that you have would be very welcome. Would especially like to know about the possibility of other gays/lesbians being on our Cruise. We are a little nervous about being identifed as a gay couple and being given grief because of it. My partner will absolutly not wear a dress and keeps asking me if she will look too "dykie" wearing pants and a shirt. Is it mandatory that a woman wears a dress during a dress up dinner?

Check out the cruise thread as part of this forum. You should not have any problems and no, women do not have to wear a dress. I do not wear dresses, but do wear nice pant suits. We have met other gays and lesbians on every Disney cruise we have been on and have become friends with some of them over the years.

We did the DCL cruise in 2001 with my stepdaughter and her partner - absolutely no problem at all on the dress-up nights. The point of the night is to "dress up", not to "wear a dress".

You mean I can't wear that stunning little cocktail dress I bought on the cruise?

Hi Everyone

When did they start the Gay and Lesbian thread?

I own at the VWL, 350 points here.
I wish I had 680 points, WOW !
I am single and gay. I need a partner to afford more !

I go to Disney with gay and straight friends, gay and straight family members.

I will be going next to VWL and BCV at the end of May thru the beginning of June with one of my best friends.

And then next for the first two weeks of December with other friends at the BCV.

I wish I could live at Disney.
I can't afford the 5000 points or more.
My friends and I would live in OKW if we could.
If OKW would only go condo.

If your ever at the VWL, and you hear growling noise coming through the wall, its probably me snoring and not the Bears !

Phil, the Gay and Lesbian forum started a few weeks ago. Welcome!

We're VWL owners as well. We'll be down there from Dec 14 - 22. I had thought we were going to try to stay at BCV, but my other half, Hisselfness announced today that we should stay part of the time at VWL and part of the time at BCV. He surprised me as I never thought he'd want to move resorts. So, tomorrow morning, I will have finished booking VWL for the entire time and then in May start trying to get some of the nights at BCV.
