Got VGC at 7 months!

[jupers]

We are headed to Cali instead of Wdw this year. Spending 2 nights in San Diego and 6 in Disneyland. I got a 1 bedroom at VGC! Very excited to see California! We are doing the zoo, Sea World, Legoland, Universal, and hopefully some more! Any suggestions or must-dos?

That's awesome! Congrats! Did your 7 month window just open up? We will be trying VGC at 7 months for a trip next summer. I am very nervous about getting it. Any tips? We're all the days available at once?

Carsland! It is the BEST!! Get a classic FP for the racers, the lines are super long.
Do the WOC dessert thing...front row seats for World of Color and it too is great!

Carsland fastpass and WOC dessert are great tips! We are hoping to get back in the next two years!

I have two separate contracts so I called on my 7 month for the 1st four days then again for the last two.

Fate is kind . I just booked a 2BR for the last 2 nights before our points would expire, only 4 months out. We live in SoCal but have never stayed at VGC.

Congratulations! That's wonderful!

We want to go also, but I want to go with family and it is so hard to get the time off for all of us to sync.

Congrats to you. Looking forward to staying at VGC, stayed 4 years ago at Grand Cal Resort, VGC was almost done. Had so much fun at Disneyland and we loved San Diego Coronado Island as well!
