If only Tinker Bell was related to the tooth fairy... (FINISHED 4/26)

Glad that you got the room that you wanted (of course you haven't got there yet so I'm thinking that there may be more drama yet to unfold on the room situation).

I'm going to guess that you started at MK. It is the must do First and Last of our WDW trips.
 
Glad you got the gift card situation worked out. What a fiasco.

And I concur with everyone else - Magic Kingdom will be your first stop. :thumbsup2
 
I'm fuming. I'm ready for a fight. Picture in your mind when Donald Duck has had his tail feathers put in a bunch by the chipmunks!
Pics or it didn't happen! Don all red in the face, fists clenched in rage, power walking back to the front desk!
I wasn't quite sure how to react. I mean, I already had my pulse elevated from the walking, adrenaline flowing getting ready to start an argument, and here I am with nothing else to say except, "OK... great!"
I hate that feeling. You're all set and ready to rip someone a new one and then - you can't. I mean, I'm glad it worked out for you, but it just seems like a waste of perfectly good anger. :rotfl2:
Can you guess which one we will go to first? popcorn::

No guessing here - you went to Animal Kingdom. :thumbsup2
 

I came to check out the SPAMer, but I don't see anything that would warrant spaming right now. The person, must have changed the post.

Any ways, did your room have queen beds?

Me and me 2 sisters are going in March, and I am rethinking this room sharing thing. If they are willing to shell out for Animal Kingdom Lodge, I'd rather go to a moderate and get 2 rooms, so we an all have our own bed. My sister's dd is coming too. 4 women in a room, Ug.

Anyway's, I was with a friend last February checking out resorts for the day, and she went ballistic for her dd's because she found "hard to find" webkinz. I had no idea what they were.

10 years ago, when my dd's were little, these things were called Beany Babies. I have 2 boxes full of the stuffed animals.
 
I'll take MK... that's where I've always got to go first.;)

Hmmmmm... another good guess.

As a Webkinz Dad (my wife and kids went Webkinz NUTS when they came out. All said, we had over 60 of them - at $15-20 a piece and now they're collecting dust in the bottom of our cedar chest), I can say that the owl is really cute. My wife wants the Okapi really badly.

Fortunately, this craze has only affected DD. Between the Webkinz, LilKinz and whatever other Kinz, we have about 30 or so I think. Crazy thing is... she has every one of them online and plays with them. I should screen-shot some of her rooms! HAHA!

I'm glad to hear it worked out for you. As much as I'd like to stay at CSR (everytime I checked, even back in April, they said that there were no rooms available at CSR during our vacation), I think we'll do alright at ASMovies this time. Like I said before, the deal that I scored with my family was 7 days at CSR or 10 days at a value resort. Of course, now that I'm thinking about it, I'd prefer to stay at ASMu instead. BAH!

Wow... no rooms available. That's nutz. BUT... I'd be ecstatic with 10 days at a value if I had the choice. Too bad DW is now spoiled with a mod. She won't go back to a value now :confused3

love the update don!:thumbsup2 maybe next time you should wait outside and let dw check in.nothing to be ashamed of, its that women thing. if you have a male cast member, putty in the hand for dw. if you get a female cast member, they have some kind of secret hand shake or something. they dont want to deal with us hot head men!!:lmao::thumbsup2 i have been to wdw 48 times and never stayed in the same room twice. love the owl and cant wait for the next update!!:thumbsup2

I think you have a very good idea there, Dave! Something tells me you have a little experience in these types of situations :rotfl2:

Man, what a fiasco at check in. I am glad that they did give you the gift card. I mean that is $500 that wasn't going to be in your pocket. That isn't pocket change.

Yeah... the gift card was our sole means for discretionary spending. I mean, we would have been just fine without it... but like you said, $500 is not pocket change (to me anyway).

Great pic of you DW & DD!!!!

:thanks:

Why didn't your DW like the room? View, location, dirty????

Yes, Yes, and no. Mostly due to the location... but also because of the view. The CM never said it... but I think room 8123 is a water view room. The other room faced a bunch of vegetation and was dark. Totally different feel.

I'm thinking you went to MK. :thumbsup2

Another guess for MK..

Glad that you got the room that you wanted (of course you haven't got there yet so I'm thinking that there may be more drama yet to unfold on the room situation).

I was glad, too. And thank you for adding that extra suspense for the viewers out there popcorn::

Another for MK... check.

:wave:

Glad you got the gift card situation worked out. What a fiasco.

A fiasco indeed. I should have included that word in my title somehow :lmao:

And I concur with everyone else - Magic Kingdom will be your first stop. :thumbsup2

Well... it IS the Magic Kingdom... could use some magic that morning, that's for sure.

Pics or it didn't happen! Don all red in the face, fists clenched in rage, power walking back to the front desk!

Something tells me there is video footage stored somewhere in the security archives at CSR of this particular walk :sad2:

I hate that feeling. You're all set and ready to rip someone a new one and then - you can't. I mean, I'm glad it worked out for you, but it just seems like a waste of perfectly good anger. :rotfl2:

THAT'S what I'm talking about! I didn't even get to mumble peanut butter under my breath! :lmao:

No guessing here - you went to Animal Kingdom. :thumbsup2

A most confident vote for AK.

I came to check out the SPAMer, but I don't see anything that would warrant spaming right now. The person, must have changed the post.

Yep... they did. But I'm very happy that you stopped by! A visit by OhMari makes me very happy :goodvibes

Any ways, did your room have queen beds?
Yes... it did. I think all the Cabanas had the queen beds by the time we got there.

Me and me 2 sisters are going in March, and I am rethinking this room sharing thing. If they are willing to shell out for Animal Kingdom Lodge, I'd rather go to a moderate and get 2 rooms, so we an all have our own bed. My sister's dd is coming too. 4 women in a room, Ug.

I agree with that thinking. The only concern I see there, though, is that there's a considerable change in atmosphere from AKL to CSR. But I would definitely want separate rooms ;)

Anyway's, I was with a friend last February checking out resorts for the day, and she went ballistic for her dd's because she found "hard to find" webkinz. I had no idea what they were.

Crazy, isn't it? I mean, they ARE cute and all... but does one REALLY need that many of them? Sheesh.

10 years ago, when my dd's were little, these things were called Beany Babies. I have 2 boxes full of the stuffed animals.

Yep... got a few of them. But they aren't as cool now since they can't play online.:rotfl:
 
Turns out the room they have available is just on the other side of the building. After a few minutes of back and forth between us, DW agrees to take the room that's ready now. She's not happy about it though. I did manage to squeak out "If you don't like the room we can come back and request another one."

The rooms all look the same on the inside, right? :confused3 Or was it more about the location?

Now I'm thinking maybe I missed something and she told me when I was going to receive the card, but I did not recall her saying anything... so I ask the CM, "When will we be receiving our gift card?" She asks for my vouchers back and double checks the system. "I'm sorry, Sir. You are not due a gift card." Uh oh. WHAT?!? :eek: At this point you could probably see the absolute disbelief on my face... and the absence of color from my face.

My argument did not go very far with this guy and I was pretty fed up with the situation, so I simply grab my laptop and head back to the front desk. I'm fuming. I'm ready for a fight. Picture in your mind when Donald Duck has had his tail feathers put in a bunch by the chipmunks! But I do have to say this... this is NOT my nature. Normally I am the most laid back, patient man you have ever met. BUT DON'T MESS WITH MY DISNEY VACATION! :furious:

:furious:
DON MAD! DON SMASH! You wouldn't like him when he's angry.

One of my favorite pictures of my ladies:


Nice one! :thumbsup2

Nobody's guessed that you went to Epcot yet, so I'll throw in a vote for that one.
 
A fiasco indeed. I should have included that word in my title somehow :lmao:

Maybe you should consult with me first before posting your titles. :thumbsup2

Yep... they did. But I'm very happy that you stopped by! A visit by OhMari makes me very happy :goodvibes

Marisa visits my PTR often. :rolleyes1 Maybe it's because we have practically the same name.

You just missed my post... but, yeah.. mainly for the location.

:furious:

:rotfl2: Nope. As my DD would say when someone is angry... BAD KITTY!

Nice one! :thumbsup2

:thanks:

One for EP :thumbsup2

You may have a point there. Will you be my editor? :flower3:

LOL!
 
Here are the voting results so far:

MK - 4
AK - 1
EP - 1
DHS - 1

Subbing! We love CSR! Stayed there in June of last year and got a room in Casitas 4 which was a great location.. Central to the dig site and el centro and right near bus stop 2. What was the issue with the first room you got (if you don't mind me asking)?

:welcome:

Thanks for joining in! Haven't spent much time over by the Casitas, but they look very nice! As for the room, I'm just going to copy and paste from my previous reply if that's ok:
"Mostly due to the location... but also because of the view. The CM never said it... but I think room 8123 is a water view room. The other room faced a bunch of vegetation and was dark. Totally different feel."

If I were to give a really, really technical answer, it would have to be - because my wife wanted the other room :lmao:

Oh I guess if I had been paying attention would have seen that! I tend to skip over other peoples posts and just read the actual TR! :goodvibes

And that is perfectly acceptable. Besides, anything other than the actual TR is just filler anyway, right? :rotfl2:

Houston, we have a skimmer!!!!!!!! ;) :lmao::lmao:

Is that the board name for this type of behavior?:confused3 Who knew? But I bet you found this out the hard way, Tim :rolleyes1

Lesson learned!:rotfl: I vow to pay closer attention and read all posts from now on! (well most of the time!):thumbsup2

LOL! You can be Ms. Skimmer for all I care :lmao: As long as I can keep quoting myself! :cool2:

Why yes Don. I did find out the hard way... I've been called out on that a time or two. LOL

If I wasn't a skimmer, I would never get anything done in my life! Seriously - to keep up with every post of every TR and PTR I'm subscribed to, I would need to spend every minute on here. There was a time when I did that, but then Facebook came along. :rolleyes1
