Our first stay at the BWV

[Tagrel]

We had our first stay at the BWV 7/17 - 7/23 and LOVED it!

We got a BoardWalk View room that was READY at 10am in the morning!!!! Great 5th floor room with huge balcony and great Crescent Lake/Epcot/Illuminations view! The room was in great condition, and the CM's were wonderful throughout our stay.

I have a full trip report (including our previous week on the Disney Magic) here: July 2004 Trip Report and plan on adding a new BWV one bedroom slideshow as soon as I have a chance.

Only OKW, SSR and HHI to go!

Thnaks for sharing!

Welcome back! That is an incredible trip report--thanks! Your pictures really brought back some memories. Do you remember what room number you had? Was it a one bedroom? I couldn't tell by the pics. The view was incredible!!! Thanks again!

Another beautiful report! I look forward to the slide show.

That certainly was a long, wonderful vacation. You did a great job trying to capture it all.

Tagrel, I always enjoy reading your trip reports. I grew up in Florida and haven't been to Sea World since I was a little girl. I think we are going to try it out sometime in the next couple of years. Glad you had a good trip!

Wow, that is by far the best trip report I've ever read! Loved all the details and beautiful pictures. Your little girls are adorable.

Sounds like a real dream trip! You and your family will have so many happy memories. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the kinds words everyone!

Lets see, our room was a one bedroom villa number 5009. It was quite a ways down the hallway, and was in the top, left corner of the Crest of the Wave building. (Above the old DVC office area)

I've also had several PM's asking about what camera we have (I really should put that info on the main trip report page! )

We used two:

- Minolta DiMAGE 5 - great camera with LOTS of options, but not always easy to use - mine.

- Casio QV-R51 - great camera, tiny insize, 5 mega pixel, and very easy to use - wife's.

Thanks so much for the great trip report! I really enjoyed reading it. It was like taking a quick visit myself. Obviously a lot of work and very much appreciated!

Tagrel, thank you so much for posting a great trip report. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. You have a beautiful family and it was fun to see the pictures of your three girls.

Thanks for the detailed report and great pics! We've been pondering Seaworld for a future trip with our trio of kids... you've definitely made it sound more appealing! And sounds like the residence Inn might be a way for us to stretch the vacation (i.e. Disney on DVC pts, coupled with a Seaworld weekend). We are such meanies... we never did tell our kids about Universal or Seaworld... They are quite old enough to read now, though, and thanks to the billboards, the gig is up.

Thanks again!

Great trip report. The wife liked it even more than me. Now she wants to go on a cruise.
