Resale shopping again.. my heart wants one thing but my head says another. Give your opinions.

Would your dislike of the Skyliner keep you from staying at RIV?

Oddly I actually love the Skyliner. This is the first time I had a hesitancy on it.

What do you prefer for coffee when you stay at VGC?

Starbucks since it’s so close team VGC!!

 

[VGCgroupie]

Got my AP magnet Big rain drops outside. Trying to decide if we stay and roam Epcot more or go checkout OKW.

Room ready 4:24pm. It’s very possible I would’ve gotten it earlier had I went to front desk asking.

I guess I should say I don’t buy the stuff that has the Vaction Club emblem plus the resort

Ah, that's a reasonable distinction! And I agree - I wouldn't wear things that specified a DVC resort other than BWV.

 

[NVDISFamily]

So far I have not. But I have boughten from Pop Century. I guess I should say I don’t buy the stuff that has the Vaction Club emblem plus the resort like this hoodie I saw at RIV today I liked. But general branding yes

There were some insane discounts on "off-resorts" at the character warehouse during our last trip so I gave in and we got some from resorts we didn't own as we love those comfy DVC sweaters and they were so cheap, @MrsNVDISFamily really wanted some more of them so we gave in. There was also a very cool button up from Caribbean Beach I almost purchased and now I'm regretting not grabbing it.....

Oh well, I can always do what I do when I am silly and don't grab something I'm conflicted about and regret not getting during my WDW visits...... stalk ebay

Well a could be persuaded by a great deal. I havent been to either of the discounts Disney stores. One day. Or…. If I’m not lazy in the morning I could possibly squeeze that in tomorrow on our way to the airport… decisions

Mind your weight and space restrictions if you have never been. Getting 90 dollar items for 10 to 15 bucks can lead to many a impulse purchase. Our kids wear a very diverse collection of high quality Disney merch due to those places. They may be one of our favorite reasons to visit WDW......

I'd also be careful on leaving your stuff unsupervised in the car if visiting them. They aren't in the worst locations but not the best either. Also, the one closer to WDW can be a bit of a madhouse to find parking.

We would do an Uber. We shall see all this rain has slowed us down and I didn’t make a quick enough decision to get to the bus for OKW.

What are these warehouses called? I am interested, especially since we're going to have a car next time.

I bought a vgc polo shirt to wear golfing last time. I figure its an opportunity for people to ask about it at the country club and then I can blab about being a member

This is what I liked. 3 different coffee shops I saw and none seemed like a far walk from the rooms. Boardwalk getting decent coffee wasn’t easy. AKV is a total joke for good coffee in the am unless a mile round trip is your thing that early. Even VDH can be hard especially when the coffee shop was closed. BLT you have to go to Contemporary which isn’t far so that why when RIV had 3 places I was like

Just to clarify, are we referring to sugar and milk with a light touch of coffee as coffee? Most of what I see people calling coffee I would refer to as a milkshake.

Or are we talking about real fresh ground and hand pulled espresso where you can actually taste where the coffee is from? I will also accept French press.

Besides that… I’ll stick to tea.

Not a blended coffee but an espresso with milk and ice. So about half way between a coffee and milkshake.

Switched it up and now on a bus to SSR. 13 minutes to board and leave with 4 people in line including us 2.

The thunderstorms here are no joke. Perfect weather for a CCV cabin. Since I got a room number I’ll assume I didn’t win that lottery today.

I am really curious about your SSR thoughts!

Cascade Cabin numbers are just like regular CCV room numbers, but they start with 8! There is not an 8th floor so they range from 8001 - 8026.

Got a number 4.

No OKW?

No. Should have. Got off the bus and realized it’s a 7 min walk through the pouring rain to get to the food place here at SSR. . Maybe I should’ve stayed on the bus? So confused.

Cross SSR off the list….

 

[VGCgroupie]

Silly me didn’t bring an umbrella or shoe covers like I did last trip. I mainly just can’t get wet shoes, don’t really care about my clothes and hair.

Yes you should have stayed on the bus! Where did you get off?!

Oh my, where did you get off the bus? Coming from the parks, the stop closest to the main building, where the food is, is the last stop, Springs. Sorry you're getting wet!!
