I totally forgot that I could use the lounge the first day. I totally love Boma's breakfast, hmmm going to have to re-think this now.


And, my apologize to the Animals on the Savannah. I will admit I was the one who may have over-reacted to the situation, then may have transformed my actions to the poor animals. to all the animals.


I know I am really am in for a treat. Nothing says special vacation than a unexpected schedule change at DH's work!!

Thank you everyone. I got to "talk" to him a bit today, so that was encouraging. He is still in critical but stable condition, so keep those good thoughts and prayers headed his way.

Great that you were able to talk to him some Still sending good thoughts, prayers, hugs, pixie dust your way

...it also helps to be cuckoo...

Well we've got that in spades

My life has become a comedy, laugh so you don't cry type of thing
Never heard from the temp agency guy, not surprised
Then yesterday, Scott's car died Something he can't fix himself, no money to get it fixed. Car is so old and has so many issues it's not worth sinking much money into it, but he can't afford to get another car.
No, we are sharing a car Not really a big deal, but I do need to get 2 new tires as it is. Have to hope and pray my car stays ''healthy''.

Sooooooo the question is, do you do CL regular room or go Pool View with the DDP? At the moment we are doing the math and the cost to downgrade gives us our DDP for our family. We would have to give up the Sunrise Safari but I think we could live with that.

What do you think? What would you do? We are there for 9 nights so food will add up.

 

[stepdisney]

Okay.....Now I'm feeling....some kind of way...Must be a glutton for punishment. Went back once again to the "other" site. Had a few more questions, thought maybe it was a fluke. Skipped AGAIN!! Literally skipped and went to the next 3 questions. So....quoted my post saying "hello, is this mike on" all in good humor. Got a response advising me to check the thread.... I've been on the boards for a while and we all ask questions instead of going through the entire thread. I've seen questions on that thread asked many times and some seem to get answers while others get the "read the thread" posts. I unsubscribed I know this is the AKL thread but does anyone here have any experience with the buses from BC/YC to DTD? Just curious. And, to make sure I'm not hijacking, Jambo to all, Zebra Domes are on me tonight. (Maybe this is a sign from God......."GO BACK TO AKL THIS YEAR"

I would definitely go for the DDP but we always do. While you will get great food in the lounge (from what I hear, AKL is the BEST) you will still have to go out and eat. Remember when you do the math, add the cost for the meals you will eat on to the CL total and subtract the cost of the Safari from your Regular room/DDP total to keep all things equal.

 

[bcnorth]

Thanks for the quick response, I just didn't use the snack total and said we would eat all breakfasts in CL the Safari was an additional expense over and above the DDP. I think we will end up with the DDP and go with a pool view, we will still see the animals and we are going to Donald's Safari Breakfast first thing, we should be able to hope over to the Safari ride and not really miss a whole lot. I'll make up my mind tomorrow......

Are there any ADR's or CS that shouldn't be missed?

A short update since there is not much to report. Bob is stable. That means he is no worse and no better. The staff at the hospital are working very hard to make certain he stays that way and I am very grateful for their work. They are amazing people.

 

[wendypooh]

Good morning, everyone. I have been absent because my husband had a stroke on Monday and is in ICU in critical condition. He is not out of the woods but there are some positive signs. Please keep Bob in your thoughts. Thanks. :

We are very happy to hear that Bob is stable. We will continue praying. So glad that you have such dedicated Doctors and nurses. Hang in there.

We am staying at AKL for the first time in May. We only walked into this hotel once last year and knew we wanted to stay here one day. It is such a unique hotel and we are so excited to spend time there.

Which floor and trail has the best pool view rooms? Anyone know the numbers of the best pool view rooms?



Thanks,
Caroline

...we need pix, gurl-fren....

HAPPY to post these pics !!!!
and remember myself of that magic dinner at SANAA !!

Here is DGH with a selection of African specialities:

Slow Cooked in Gravy, Simple and Well Seasoned
Choice of two served with Basmati Rice or Five-grain pilaf

Chicken with Red Curry Sauce
Shrimp with Green Curry Sauce
Beef Short Ribs
Coconut-Curry Lamb

I think he had chicken and shrimps

While I got just (From the Tandoor Ovens) Tandoori Chicken - served with Basmati Rice .

The food in front of the picture is still DGH food

and here DGH tasting a
Dessert Sampler - Chocolate Cake, Passion Fruit Kulfi, and Chai Cream

OUR favorite part of the meal though was that we were able to watch the animals grazing in the savannah ... a few steps from the windows of Sanaa !!!

...okay, so I'm not here to 'flame' any other FAQ threads, but it is really the responsibility of the OP to 'set the tone' for that thread. I, for one, have diligently always tried to answer questions in an expedient and as-accurate-as-possible manner, and I feel that subsequent posters have followed suit. When one posts a question, obviously, chances are that question may have already been asked, but, also as obviously, wouldn't it make sense that the question-poser could have READ THE ENTIRE THREAD? So, if someone is posting a question, it is, quite frankly, in good taste to simply answer that query - plain and simple. I truly think that is what sets this thread apart from the others - AKL and otherwise.....now, WHERE ARE THOSE ZD's that you promised??

BTW ~ I have stayed at quite a number of resorts, all with different locations...it seems to me that, no matter where one stays, it is unanimous that travel time to DTD is, for the most part, lengthy. Please remember that the BC/YC buses share with S/D and, at slow times also share with BW...hope this info helps .
