Just had to share...

Dh and I were tossing around the idea of one last quick trip before our AP's expire later this month. First I was thinking of taking a Sat and Sun...then dh says we should do Friday too...

After throwing around many options (both DVC and AP rate cash) we settled on trying for a DVC studio Sun and Mon and a cash room Sat.....called and everything we wanted was available!

So we'll be at POFQ on an excellent AP rate ($84) for 7/24, and in an OKW studio the 25th and 26th (borrowed points from next year). We're not going to tell the kids...though the 4yo did hear me talking about it already, she won't remember.

We've never stayed at FQ before, so its like a new adventure. And I requested the Turtle Pond area at OKW to be near the pool and playground.

Thanks for "listening"!
 
Congratulations on everything coming together for your trip. With the park tickets already paid for, it is tempting to throw those trips together, isn't it?

Probably a good thing I live far enough away that spur-of-the-moment trips aren't very feasible! :p

Enjoy your trip! :)
 
We've decided against AP's for next year for that exact reason, Granny! Bought a house in January and we really should be putting our money towards the renovations we want to do....so we decided we'd make the extra trips "not an option" by getting PH's next time. Living just 6-7 hours away makes last minute trips all too easy!

If these points are burning holes in our pockets next year we'll just have to head to HHI!
 

Congrats on your trip! I can't tell you how jealous I am! We are not commited to any trips right now and I can't stand it!:( We stayed at POFQ in May for 3 nights after Sun- Thur. in a BCV studio. We really liked it. It was the first time we had ever stayed there. The only thing that I thought was lacking was the food court selection. But you won't really be there long enough for it to matter. But everything is so close by, and really quaint. The new furnishings are really nice. Have a great time! Alethia's new photo is great.
 
Sounds like a fun little trip! Our kids are getting too old to surprise... :(
 
Sounds like fun. I wish we lived close enough to do "weekend trips"! We are taking advantage of our APs expireing in January by doing December again this year.
 
Enjoy your trip! POFQ (the original "PO") is a great resort, we enjoyed staying there in the past and I believe it has recently undergone renovation.

There are times I wish we were only 6-7 hours away from WDW :)
 
Hi Lesley,

We will be at Old Key West also from July 24-31. I also requested the Turtle Pond Area. Hope to run into you or see you at the pool. I noticed you are also from SC. I spent a few years in Columbia at USC. Alethia is so precious.

Gee my 4 yo would remember and bring it up every chance she got! LOL

Have fun. Enjoy!
