1) Free internet since December 26th for us!
2) Check the specials at Artist Pallet and the pool bar. They can be the best!
3) No more Nestle Cookie Ice Cream sandwiches at the parks. Boo hoo! Make up for it with the Ice Cream cookie sandwiches at MK's Sleepy Hallow!
4) Average bus waits: 8 minutes. Range: 1-23 minutes.
5) The Grandstand is our new favorite area!
6) NYE fireworks show was good, but the best time to go was last night (Dec 29th)!
7) Going to miss 2007 Dining Plan. Won't do it in 2008 due to changes.
8) The water in Splash Mountain stinks and is disgusting. It makes your clothes and hair smell foul.
9) Busses only run to Winter Summerland golf after the closing of Blizzard Beach via EPCOT. Go there for the bus connection.
10) Backlot Express is my new favorite counter service at MGM due to indoor seating and food.
11) CRV is looking good. 4.5 floors "done"!
12) Bus Stop Order Reminder: Grandstand, Carousel, Paddock, Congress Park, Springs (except for DTD which begins at Springs).
13) Boat departures to DTD: Every half hour at :15 and :45. Every fifteen minutes in the evening.
14) Now uncomfortable with security at DTD West Side at night. Marketplace still seems okay.
15) Weather has been spectacular. Typical daytime temps in mid 70s. Last couple of days in low/mid 80s. Pool temps somewhat cool, but fine once you are in the water. Brief cold snap (highs in the 50s on Wednesday) coming this next week.
16) I was unable to upgrade our AP to PAP at Blizzard Beach because they couldn't process the DVC discount. As a result, had to pay with room charge and present receipt at Guest Relations to upgrade to PAP and get credit. Worked fine but unnecessary inconvenience.
