Thank you so much! I am doing it freelance at the moment, but I have yet to make it into a steady job

I added you to my flickr as a contact. I love your pictures. I'll have to come back when I have time and go through them all!

I just put a bunch of pics from my trip to FW on my flickr, at www.flickr.com/photos/jadedjojo There were too many to put up here. If I had known you guys wanted specific pics of the loops, I would have gotten them! I was just cruising around those loops this morning (300, 700), and would have taken pics if I had known.

Here is a pic of the site this time, site 1506.

Thanks for the picture of 1506. We have stayed there twice and in 1507 once. Brings back a lot of memories.

This was from 2006 but I like the way we set it up. They had just finished running the new underground cable so our sand had sink holes all over. Had a real hard time getting the trailer back there.

We were in site 1201 from 12/26/08 to 1/2/09. It is the first site on the right as you enter the 1200 loop. I don't know if this is one of the abandoned pull through sites that I've read about but it appears as though it could have been as the back of it is very close to Ft. Wilderness Trail. This "premium" site has ample room and is well buffered from adjacent sites. I had to center the MH on the pad more than I would have liked because the driver's side slide out would have hit the utility pedestal.

There is noticeable early am traffic noise from the CM's in their gas powered carts and from the bus stop which is located at the entrance of this loop which is shared with the 1300 loop.

The location (relative to amenities) of the loop isn't bad, especially with a golf cart but I would have preferred to be further into the loop, away from the road. Had we been running heat or a/c the week we were there the noise would probably have not been an issue.

We loved our site. It was in the 300 loop. We had no neighbors right next to us because of the curve of the road. It also was on the inner loop and had a pathway off the back of our site to the comfort station. Super great site!

I am not selling these on Ebay for just that reason. I made and printed these for my own use. If there is some way to share them, without violating copyright, I would be glad to do so.

You mention the magnet, and that is in fact what I scanned in and then modified for our wilderness mickey on the front.

My understanding is that it is ok to share them....or to make them for a "friend" and have them "gift you" or "donate" with money for the supplies to make them, but you can't sell them, ie make a profit, off them.

I could be wrong, but I believe those are the parameters....it's why people can use the DISigns from the DISign board here....

you could probably ask for a donation for them.

This is the only picture of any of our sites that I can find right now. mid 700 loop.QUOTE]

Do you remember the site number? I think the one beside that is the one I want to request next time we go but I can't remember the number?

 

[Shan-man]

Hey Carol, maybe this will help you find that site:

[zakerdog]

Wow - thankyou Shan-man, that does help. One question though - what does the in/out represent?

 

[Shan-man]

Inside of loop or outside of loop... sometimes it is hard to distinguish which label accords to which marker. The In and Out help in this regard (702 & 404 in this shot are a good example of somewhat confusing labels!)

 

[zakerdog]

Now that makes sense, why didn't I see that

thanks again

Hey Shannon,
That's a great pic of the 700 loop with all of the sites marked. Do you have any other loop pics that are done like that one? Which site did you use to get such close-up arial shots? I've never been able to zoom in that close.

Thanks,
Becky

 

[Shan-man]

Stay tuned

 

[CampingChristy]

Shan Man - I would love to see the 800 loop posted like you did the 700 loop! You the Man!! I told you Disney should hire you!!!

 

[DaddyDon]

Wow - thankyou Shan-man, that does help. One question though - what does the in/out represent?

Oh lord!!! The places this comment may go here I'm sorry ... I just know my friends.....

 

[team bradfield]

Thanks Shan-man, question, is the 700 loop in the photo, post re-construction to new preferred sites?

We are booked premium site, and requested 700, 400 or 500.

Just wondering which loop has the most room. We stayed in 1400 loop in '07 and not only was it most difficult to get in, you were almost in the next site when you walked out of the camper.

 

[Shan-man]

Well, the image of 700 is of it as a Preferred loop. It has not yet been upgraded to Premium. So, in answer to your question, this image, though a couple of years old, represents the current state of affairs in 700. There will be no change as to where the sites are or how many there will be: the conversion to Premium merely involves expanding the existing pad (mostly on the awning side, and to widen the mouth of the pad).
