I am coining the term... DVC Slots!

I was in the resort view with parking lot view and loved it so you have a nice preferred view. I think watching the fireworks from the terrace is worth it. Its a different vibe than blt that is close and big so its really cool but poly its just so pretty seeing it over the water.

Curious to hear your thoughts on both resorts!

I am very excited to check out fireworks from the terrace!!! it seems like such a nice space.

you know I'll be back with another overly long, verbose trip report ...I know my reports are probably a little overly detailed but I just can't help myself. Speaking of, still need to write up the last night of our Thanksgiving trip! I have thoughts! haha.

Just grabbed a December AKV-Jambo value 1 bed for 3 nights! Was stalking my waitlist night for January and thought what the heck.

I'm pulling the handle again!

When Disney dangled the military "AP" in our face for $500, we couldn't resist planning 2 trips. Last year, we took a spontaneous 2nd trip when SWA dropped an airfare in our laps that was dirt cheap....well....THAT ain't happening this year.

Due to work obligations, we are stuck traveling in the first half of December. I knew that studios would be non-existent and so we planned on a 1BR. We also knew that we would be looking at SSR or OKW which were perfectly fine with us. This is going to be a trip mainly for JN and MVMCP anyways so we are not picky on the resort....relaxed vibes are perfect!

Since I planned on booking at SSR, I knew I couldn't book until May, but I have been monitoring all of the 1BR availability.... We just booked our airfare for our October trip and I've been watching the prices on the December dates as well. As I watch the 1BR's in December fall off the charts, I am getting more nervous by the day. Right now, OKW and SSR are the only resorts left that have all 4 nights available for our dates...and we still have 2 more months before we can book! Yikes!

So, today, I pulled the handle on the DVC slot machine and used our transferred points and waitlisted a 1BR resort view at the BWV. I know, I am a little late in the game, but better late than never! At least I have a small chance of getting something within these next 2 months.
