You should try Wyndham Bonnet Creek, it's located right next to Carribean Beach. We loved it there, on site, yet not owned by Disney . $100 a night got us a 2 bedroom with full kitchen , washer & dryer etc..

BUT , I have to admit, I thought everyone was crazy when they said "ooh it doesn't have that Disney feel" <roll eyes> crackerjacks, I thought. That Disney feel, seriously. Oooops,OK, proven wrong. We will prob stay on-site again cause we missed that <ahem> Disney feel! But we will be back to Wynham Bonnet Creek one day also. We usually stay mod so maybe we'll try CS, the pool looks awesome!

Your brothers are a hoot!!

I'll have to look at their website. The Disney feel is important to us and b/c we always rent a car the free parking is also nice. If the price is right though and the rooms are nice it may be something to consider. I'm really leaning towards Beach Club and Poly, we seem to go and hang at the Poly every year so we may as well stay there. If we stayed at Beach Club Alek and Erich could have a Kitchen Sink for lunch every day!

Congrats on getting the reference! It is our favourite RPG, we got it when it first came out for the Super Nintendo back in the early 90's, it only cost $100! It was a prize from our Dad for beating Super Mario! We played it all the time! I wish that they still made quality RPG's but sadly the ones that have come out in recent years have been really lacking in good characters and decent plot.

It's really such a shame that they don't make rpgs like that anymore. I'm FAR from being an rpg-er (I actually don't like them that much), which says a lot about Chrono Trigger cause it's my FAVOURITE rpg!

Haha, so funny that your dad got you guys a game for beating a game!

That is an anime reference right? Not one I have seen, it is possible Erich has though.

It is! you should watch it though, it's epic.

Me too, I always hurt myself, it is pretty much a daily occurrence.

Haha, same here!

YukiPhnx, nice that you got my Gurren Lagann reference. Its' great show and two movies, one of the few "newer" anime I have seen.

Hey Erich, LOVE the onions.

Lol, "newer". I haven't really been up to date on recent animes either.

I pretty much only play RPG's and of course Mario. Shoot em up type games don't interest me, I like a game with a story! My fav games are Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 4, 9, and 10. I played one of the Suikden games as well and liked that. I know there is another that is escaping me right now!

I don't think he realized that the game we would want would cost $100!

Maybe I will since I have so much time on my hands this summer.

Yeah, I'm much more of a fps-er, but I also love puzzle-type games like Professor Layton, Phoenix Wright and Trauma Cente. All on the DS of course.

I recently started playing Rollercoaster Tycoon and LOVE it. I'm trying to recreate the Disney parks, haha.

Maybe I will since I have so much time on my hands this summer.

Or maybe you can come by Toronto and pay me a visit??? Summerlicious is happening here soon!

Love all the pool pictures!!! The underwater shots are really cool!

I was addicted to that game a few years ago.

I was thinking about going for a weekend if I have the money. I want to go to the ROM again and do other touristy things.

Thanks! It was fun using the camera in the pool, a new experience!

I LOVE touristy stuff in Toronto! I would be the perfect guide. Would you look into getting the city pass? I once did that with a few of my friends during March break. It was so much fun.

Too bad you couldn't come during the weekdays. ROM is free on Tues for Post-secondary students.

I'm not tied down to a weekend. Just looked at the CityPass, looks like a good deal, has everywhere I would want to go. Well, I have been to the zoo recently but the other places I have never been to or it has been a long time.

Welcome all to the second post of The Trip of sleep deprivation, lost cameras, abandoned wheelchairs and giant male p*&^%$#s carvings.

Some of you may know because you either live in Canada or you read the post earlier that Lessa posted. The mailmen of Canada are rebelling against Democracy.

While we were in Florida Alek and I infiltrated their top secret base at the hotel we were all staying at. (Quite a coincidence huh!)

With Lessa and mom at the counter checking in Alek and I were free to move undercover. I am the one in black and Alek is in the white.

Alek and I first went back to the car to get some top secret equipment. When we got there we noticed that the Canadian mail men had already been there(that is why it is filled with snow).

Now angry Alek and I pucnhed our way through the pavement and traveled the tunnels of Disney. After a few minutes we found their secret base underneath the cafeteria.

Suddenly an alarm went off and me and Alek hi-tailed it out of there. Right outside the lobby we noticed they were Nazi mail men and they are here for revenge.

Alek and I fought our way through the hotel.

Alek was able to get a dog to eat one of them, and I was able to take some out with authentic Disney Golf Balls. Thanks to our quick thinking we were able to save our vacation, Canada's reputation, and most important of all show the world that the spirit of freedom and honour still exists in all of our hearts.

May 11th continued

Warning! This update is going to be picture heavy!

After a delightful hour and a half in the pool we decided to head back to the room.

This is the little towel animal that was in the room that afternoon when we first arrived.

When we got back to the room we all changed and lay around for a bit but we were all getting tired but we could not go to bed yet. Why you ask? Well it was Survivor night! Mom, Erich, and I always watch Survivor and we weren't about to miss it just because we were a little tired. In order to help us stay awake we decided to go for a walk around the resort.

We took some truly horrendous family photos that night. We all looked so lovely... Wet hair, pale tired faces, yep we were an attractive bunch that night.

The Casitas Quiet Pool. Located next to it is the gym and spa as well as a laundry room.

Rosie should love this next photo since she said her favourite photo of Alek and Erich is the car photo from the intro to this report. Erich is getting revenge on Alek for that terrible attempt on his life a few years ago.

After that little conflict was resolved we carried on with our walk.

Time for another awful family photo!

We have arrived at El Centro, home to Registration, Panchito's (the gift shop), Cafe Rix, Club Rix, The Pepper Market, The Maya Grill and the Convention Centre.

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

We went in to explore the gift shop since Mom and I had not had a chance to do that earlier in the day. I also wanted to pick up a refillable mug from Cafe Rix, I picked out a pink one and filled it up with some delicious Cherry Coke.

There was very little Coronado Springs specific merchandise, in fact, I think there was only a pin. The other "CSR" merchandise is the same stuff you can find at Epcot in the Mexico pavilion.

After exploring El Centro we continued on our walk into the Cabanas section of the resort.

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

Erich was so exhausted from our walk that he had to take a brief nap.

We are now in the Ranchos section of the resort.

Ranchos Quiet Pool

And one more awful family photo

As we were crossing over the bridge that would get us back to the Casitas section and our room we spied a turtle!

We got back to the room around 7:30 with only half an hour to wait for Survivor. I think we ended up watching How I Met Your Mother while we waited. After Survivor it was lights out, we were all exhausted and thus we should be able to get a good night's sleep, or would we?

Nice updates and a great bunch of pictures! I saw Beth was at her non-Rosie-like sweet and innocent best!!!

You guys must have been really exhausted. Even your brothers seem reserved!!! I guess the fun at the pool finished them off; oh and their exploits to thwart the Canadian mailmen!!!

 

[pinkxray]

Love all the pictures. Thanks for the tour of CSR

I disagree with your awful family photo labels. It looked like you got a few nice, normal family pictures.

Don't let Mom fool you, she was just saving her energy up for the next day.

We were exhausted, I found my eyes drifting closed during Survivor, it was a real struggle staying awake until the very late hour of 9pm!

Gorgeous pictures Lessa!!! Your framing is perfect Ugh, I want to be sitting in one of those hammocks right now.

I was crying from laughing so hard at this picture

They are hilarious!
