[tiggrbaby]

We had the most amazing two weeks in the paradise that is AKL, and if anyone has not yet read my trippie, please give it a go, as there are lots of great pictures of this wonderful, wonderful place.

I dream that I will return here again one day soon.

Great trip report! Thanks for sharing!

Hi! I haven't been on in quite some time. Can anyone tell me if any on the villas are available yet? We are leaving in less than 2 weeks. We have ressies @ SSR in a 1br but would love to stay at AKL if available. TIA!

There has been a lot of activity on this thead since Tuesday and I had to read to catch up. I'm kinda jealous of those staying CL at AKL.....anyone ever asked for an upgrade to CL when you arrived?

...well, guess I didn't get my wish, spending my 50th eating ZD's at Boma....

You can't pass it up. It's great, and I bet you'll love it. SMILE! My DN wants to go and check some of the resorts we have never been to, so maybe we'll trek on over to the Dolphin too.

 

[tiggrbaby]

Happy Birthday Kimmar!

​

Hope you are enjoying it even though you aren't in Disney!

Wow, did you get that great teacher rate for Christmas week? As long as you're staying on property, you can get your fix by going to the restaurants!

Now for my 50th this January, I will be down at U of MD for a swim meet. I have to wait until the summer to celebrate on the cruise!​

 

[luvfigment]

Happy Birthday Kim!!!!!

Although you will be at the Dolphin, Christmas in Disney is awesome! I definitly think you should eat at Jiko for Christmas dinner and you can always get some Zebra Domes to go at Mara!

 

[luvfigment]

There are some (about 1/2, I think) of the converted villas available at Jambo House (AKL). Availability can be tight, so call to check and see if there's anything open for your dates.
