VAgal, the May Lizard Meet is the week of May 15th. I would love to meet you there in person! I don't believe a date has been set for a possible summer lizard meet yet, but I could be wrong.

Hello .. We just booked a last minute trip to WDW and I splurged on a room, concierge level at Disney's Beach Club Resort. The bonus of access to the Regatta Club and free food was too tempting. Does anyone know, aside from the continental breakfast, what else available, and when? I'm hoping we’ll save some money in the long run by taking advantage of this service. Thank you.

Hi all!

I have a rate of $380.00 per night (pre-tax) at the Poly LVC for 7 nights - 11/29/04 through 12/6/04. Should I hope for something better or just relax with what I have. I do not have any type of package, just a postcard rate. Let me know!

Thanks,

Pat

I say just relax and think about those hamocks and swings on the beach and the tiki torches and music. The AP rate on LVC is $380 so I don't think you are going to get anything better. Congrats on your anniversary! We celebrated our 20th yesterday but the real celebration will begin 1 month from yesterday at the Poly! What a great time of year for your visit. I'm sure you'll have a very magical trip!!!

One more magical thing: When we there in Jan sitting in our LVC room one night I looked out the window and said what is the ball of fire in the sky by the CR? It was the full moon rising. Very beautiful! Here's a link to a fuzzy photo. Need to bring the tripod next trip. Full Moon over Contemporary I've already check and the moon will be full for our Oct trip and tentative dates for next years trip and I just checked and the moon will be full on Nov 26th so I'm sure it will quite beautiful for you as well. ENJOY!

Awwww, shucks! I would love to go in May, but I don't know if it's going to happen. The more I look at it, the more it looks like it's going to be June before I can go with the family. I wonder if I can go just by myself for a long weekend... ?Something tells me DH is not going to let me go alone.

 

[tammy]

Let's see if this works. Here are pictures from our recent trip. Thanks Elisabeth!

Afternoon all!

Mmausse...prayers and pixie dust to you...I hope things start getting better for you...you have such a positive attitude about everything...keep it up!

VAgal...we are working on a summer lizard meet at AKL...I am hoping for last part of July as I want to be there July 21 - July 29. I don't think any dates are set yet though.

Has anyone heard from SteveandDonna and Woody lately? Haven't seen them on the boards lately. Hope all is well with both. Woody, if you can let us know how you are doing. Steveand Donna too...hopefully work is just keeping you busy.

BT...hope your fashion show went well today (or tonight!).

#hockeymom...take care of yoursef...you NEED to go see the Mouse soon!

All you lizards that are going soon...I am so jealous. But of course I LOVE listening on all your festive plans!

Well gotta go get some work done.

Lynn

LOVE your photos, Tammy!! My favorite is the one of you, Tyler, Lilo and Stitch (also the one with Chip and Dale!) Thanks for sharing

Hope everyone is feeling fine this evening

Asked Andrea for a Boma dinner PS on our 4th night at The Lodge; She got back with me - with my PS# - about 5 minutes later! She's so wonderful and friendly...Also, I am also going to "drop off" DD at Simba's Clubhouse for a couple of hours one afternoon/evening while I enjoy the sauna/steam room and an aromatherapy massage at Zahanati Fitness Center Can't wait!

#1hockeymom How are you feeling???

Homemade Margaritas w/ fresh lime and chips & salsa are OUT

 

[#1hockeymom]

I feel MUCH better, thank you for asking! I hope to have a "non niquel" night tonight and sleep on my own! I still have major school problems *we're relocating half of our staff and major grade shifting, but no one knows a thing until next week*, but I am going to DISNEY WORLD, so this too shall pass!

I love the pictures! Tammy! I swear you ARE that mickey jumping up with your hands wide! I love the fact we really do seem to be our avatar! Cute kids! You took wonderful photos and it is evident that everyone had a great time! (you have pop pictures! So what did you think of the place?)

Just paid half of DD's tuition, other half due November 5th. I will not call AKL, I will not call AKL, I will not call akl!

Spreading P and PD everywhere! My prayer list is getting long, but I am not giving up hope! We just haven't prayed hard enough!

Grabbing a cup of hot tea w/lemon before heading out. Have a good evening!
Debbie

Tammy, very cute photos. Tyler is a heart-breaker though... and your son looks fantastic riding the waves! It was fun seeing them.

Liz, that massage sounds like heaven!

Anyone heard from Debbart? She and I had a pact to share our Illuminations cruise, whoever got one. We both were relying on AKL cl. Sadly, they were unable to get me one. She was going to check to see if they were able to get hers but I haven't heard from her since. Either way, I would like to hear that she's okay.

Debbie, hockeymom, you got through this cold faster than I did!

Having a decaf cap..

Help!

I have not even officially become a lounge lizard yet and my husband says that I am spoiled.

We are going to Mickey's in October staying BWI concierge and I am so excited.

We are also going back with my brother and sis-in-law in December for their actual and my early anniversary.

Because we are financing most of the Dec trip I booked two rooms at the CBR with the DM package and Silver add-on.

Now I am having serious doubts. I want to be in concierge again! I want to be within walking distance to the parks! I don't want to have to ride the bus that often! I don't want to have to make my own P.S.'s!

Does this make me a deluxe snob? Hubby says a resounding "YES!"

Should I bite the bullet and book whatever concierge is available and pretend that it is my anniversary present to myself? Or should I be happy that I am going to WDW three times this year?

 

[Taratink]

I have a family of 4. Me (Mom) DH, DS5, DD3. What would I gain from a CL visit?
Tara

 

[Taratink]

Are CL guest rooms any different? We will be staying at the WL and would need bunkbeds. If that is even a option at WL.
Tara

 

[KerryCM]

desiab I am probably not a good one to answer your question but, here goes. I have become a CL addict!! In March I go with some friends and we always stay concierge. Well, this year some of the girls didn't want to pay the price so we were going to stay at CBR, which I love. Well in Oct when I went with my husband I was at the BW and had to call one of my friends and tell her I just couldn't bring myself to stay anywhere else. She said fine and agreed to stay at the BW with me. My husband calls me a "Deluxe Snob". I have to agree, I am. I have tried other cls but just love the BW. It's your anniversary, go deluxe! Just my 2cents. By the way you will be at the BW same time as me in Oct. I am sure you will run into me in the lounge. I will be with my adorable grandaughter, Madyson, and her parents.

Just dropping by for a nice margarita
Its been a rough couple days. MY DD kindergarten teacher is taking a leave of absence for the rest of the year-just as we got the peanut allergy thing finally settled. Then my DD complains of a sore throat after her gymnastics-swung by pediatricians office-strep throat-after she just worked out for 2 hours at gymnastics-boy I felt terrible. She hadn't even complained. Then I get home and my GM has to evacuate FLA. again-she lives in a mobile home in Vero Beach. Well, at least I'm going to NY this weekend with friends-another disaster, but that's for another day. I cannot wait to go on vacation. I am so looking forward to having a wonderful time at the GF and the BC. Alana was so helpful with changing my P.S. around since I'm splitting my stay now. I just booked Spoodles for my DH B'Day. Prayers and PD for all who need it.

Now before I go to bed, have to visit my favorite thread.

Floridafam Christmas with a sunrise safari. Now that's living!!!

mmause Oh my gosh. If it's not one thing, it's a dozen. Get better!!

Tammy Just love your pictures. Thanks for sharing. And Tyler and Matthew are adorable.

Well, my DGD is going on the pirate cruise and we are dining with Cinderella. Because I got up the past two mornings and called. I sent the Poly a huge list and I haven't received one reply with a ps they have gotten. Sooooo, I guess I'm just supposed to get my own.

So help me lizards... Since I made my own ps, I just emailed them the confirmation numbers so they could note them on my itinerary right???




Nitey nite. I'm just going to lay here with my mouth open and everyone can just pour me a shot of Bailey's as they pass through the lounge. What a week!!

 

[Janet2k]

Okay, who has been tying up the concierge for the past several days? He has been away from his desk for so long that the spiders and dust bunnies have taken over the joint: click here. I certainly hope it’s not any of you folks here in the Lizard Lounge!

I so rarely stop by the lounge but couldn't resist this evening when I put that photo into a new on-line photo album (I'm working on my FTW trip report and am gathering photos of two of the venues that I was considering for my vow renewal's dinner party). For some odd reason that particular photo made me think of you kind folks here on the Resorts Board.

Thanks for leaving the munchies out for me to enjoy. They were scrumptious.

 

[#1hockeymom]

*laughing* I love it! That can't be our CM's though; they work too hard! That is one of my favorite areas of TOT! Thanks for stopping in, Janet! I hope you grabbed a treat in the lounge before heading on your way!

Debbie

 

[lovesdumbo]

desiab-you will be 20+ weeks pregnant in December. I say go CL! I would drop the Silver Plan though I've never done it....I went to Disney when I was 6 months pregnant and I just couldn't eat big sit down meals. The CL was perfect for me and every step I saved being in a resort close to the parks was PRICELESS!!! There is no way you'll want to stay anywhere else after you experience CL living!

Taratink-I've never stayed WL CL but can say that CL with young children is well worth the expense for the convenience alone let alone the savings on breakfast and snacks. It is so great in the morning 1 adult can take a child or both to the lounge for breakfast while the other gets ready. You don't all have to hang out in the room to go to breakfast together. And it is so great to have the lounge instead of running to the snack bar everytime the kids want a snack or milk. It is also nice to have the lounge to relax in instead of just the room.

mmause-sending P & PD for you.

Tammy-LOVED your photos-you all look so happy! Your DS is very handsome and your nephews so adorable. How great that you were able to share the magic of Disney with your DS, sister, nephews and Mom.

Kerry-look at that counter of yours! Always thinking of you!
