Good afternoon, Js & Ks!

Last Monday it was 90. Today it is 48.

You should be here. It is snowing. Hope someone is enjoying a zebra dome right now.

I had my winter coat on yesterday and three blankets at night. This weather is just crazy!

Elin, I don't have any winter clothes packed.... Yesterday was 99 and it will be close to freezing when I get home...

Been lurking around here since I am really, really looking forward to going back to AKL and I figured you all would understand.

Thanks! Just so excited that I get to go back!!! I feel like a lot of people don't "get" AKL, so it's nice to come here -- where everyone understands why it's so special to my family.

I am all packed. Two more days at work and I am officially on vacation.

I just started packing yesterday. I cannot wait! I'm keeping my eye on that Tree of Life thread. If any part of AK is closed we will probably add a sunrise safari to our trip plans and skip going to AK entirely while we are there.

Am I missing something? Tree of Life thread? Part of AK closed?

What's up?

I didn't like the look of AKL as the African theme and animals just didn't entice me but booked it due to it being the only resort available. I am happy to say I was totally wrong.

The resort is relaxed and wonderful and will stay there again in the future. If I was being totally picky I wish the slide and child's water playground that are in kidani were in Jambo but it's no big deal.

I am wondering the same thing. I have not heard or read anything about AK being worked on.

Megs1313 please give us a link to the Tree of Life thread.

I can't link on my iPad. It's still on the first page in theme parks and strategies. HTH!

Thanks! No we weren't but I wish we were -- a Panama Canal cruise is definitely something I would love to do someday...

I'm so glad you found out how wonderful it is since it sounds like you never would have otherwise.

I just sent a pm to someone regarding renting DVC points for a one night stay at AKL. I saw from looking at the Disney site that the date I am looking for is Columbus day Weekend. I'm from Canada so I never even realized it until I went on the Disney sight to check what the price of rooms actually are to compare the cost of renting points vs paying for the room through Disney.

The weird thing is when I look up AKL, it lists the dates specifically under a category for Columbus day for AKL deluxe resort. When I look up Jambo House and Kidani village under the Deluxe Villa category to see what the rates would be, there is no special category for Columbus day nor can I find the dates for that weekend. Does anyone know, am I missing something here?
