Well, I'm here. It's funny, just this morning, when I talked with you guys, I was in NJ, unaware of what would happen later. Well, now I'm here.
The plane landed at around 11 a.m. After getting our rental car and driving to WDW, we arrived at the Contemporary at noon. Our room was not quite ready, so we still checked in, but went up to the Grand Canyon Concourse. We browsed the shops. At 12:30, we went back to the front desk to see if our room was ready. Surprisingly, it was! They wanted to get us settled in right away, so a nice Cast Member lead us to our room on the 10th floor in the tower.
The view is amazing. I can see the GF, Poly, a part of TTC, and the MK. Not to mention the monorails and the Seven Seas Lagoon.
My sister and I found it fun to watch the monorails disappear (because the tower blocked the rest of the track) just before entering the resort. We would run across our room to the hallway outside and watch the same monorail glide by 6 floors below us. We also counted until when we would see a monorail exit our resort.
I don't think this resort has internet hookup. Thank god this laptop has battery power. I will just use the batteries to talk to you guys. We are going to change into our swimwear and go swimming. Tonight, we are planning on eating at Chef Mickey's. For my family, it is tradition to eat at Chef Mickey's on our first night - no matter which resort we stay in!
Well, I'll talk to you guys tonight! Bye!

I'm havin' fun with ::MickeyMo !

Congratulations (especially on your wonderful room)! Have a wonderful trip!! ::MickeyMo

Glad to hear your flight was uneventful and on time! Sounds like you have a fabulous view! I hope to check out the Contemporary during this trip! Have a Disney day! See you in three days!

I love that MK view! Enjoy your vacation. How are the crowds?:wave:
 

How are the crowds?

I don't know how the crowds are. The resort is not that crowded right now. It's early, so people are still at the parks.

See you in three days!

I may not see you, but have a nice trip! When you check out the Contemporary, go to the Observation Deck. That's the only reason why I'd go and check it out! Bring a camera!
 
:wave: Glad you are having a good time. :teeth: We like Chef Mickey's too. We have a PS for there next month. :Pinkbounc :bounce: Tell ::MickeyMo and ::MinnieMo I will see them soon. :teeth: :Pinkbounc :bounce:
 
Glad to hear that you are having a good time! :) We will be arriving at the Contemporary for the first time a week from today. We have a 14th floor room with a view of the Magic Kingdom and I can't wait to see it!!! We will also be eating dinner at Chef Mickey's our first night.

Have a great vacation!!! :)

Hey Kteacher! :)

Looks like we will be at the CR at the same time! :) We are there for 4 nights and then on to the BWI. Do you know where you are staying?? We are up on the 14th floor...ugh, I don't like heights but this will be an exception! :)

Have you packed yet?? I've started my list.

Less than a week now!!!!!:bounce:

JESW- we're in the Tower, but I'm not sure what floor yet. I've started sorting things, but haven't packed yet. this is a surprise trip for my daughter, so I have to find a way to pack her suitcase without her knowing about it:eek:
 
How old is your DD? Our kids are DD5 & DS9.

Jill
 
She will be 12 in July. This trip it's just the girls-me my sister, and my daughter. The trip is a gift to my sister, who is the best sister and aunt you could find. i only have to keep it a secret from my daughter for one more week!!!
