Yep, its my Short but CandyCane Sweet Trip......trust me, if i didnt have 3 kids under the age of 16 to get home to.....ok, myBob too.....I'd be knocking on the door of one of those THV's..... "Any room at the INN? I am out of DVC pts...yet again...!"

Just remember that between the 4 of us in our two rooms we will eventually have 4 beds... (just sayin')

Of course, how could you possibly explain to the kids and yourBob that you won't be with them on Christmas?

I couldnt!
I love watching the Disney parade Christmas morning....will have a few pangs of guilt with Ava though, knowing I Just returned....
Will have to find her something special
Yesterday she had her purse with "coins" and said now she can go to DisneyWorld...about killed me...lol..she will get to go back next summer hopefully, if for just a quick trip...I have to keep reminding myself she has been 5 times at the age of 3 already!

So.....back to YOUR PTR

What requests , if any, do you usually make for FQ???

 

[PNO4TE]

What requests , if any, do you usually make for FQ???

I don't usually! It is such a small resort we have never had a bad room. That being said, I probably jinxed myself and there will be one room out of all of them that is not good and we will get it!

Maybe I will do some research and see what is suggested! Do you have any thoughts? They usually do end up putting our two rooms close together or connecting, so that is not anything I worry about either.

 

[DisneyBride'03]

Laura has some thoughts...lol

I think she said bldg 2 or 5..neither of these buildings are near a parking lot....do you care what floor....she likes to be on top....
So then you cant hear guests above you...
Corner room....you get 2 windows...and makes the room appear bigger due to the extra sunlight that filters through

What do I know, i have never stayed there...lol

Have had it booked many of times...including our wedding trip...but DISNEY changed that one....not me! lol

 

[PracPerfPatricia]

Glad to hear the Disney version of Christmas Carol is worth seeing......(some aren't...I get a little picky with my CC...

Oh dear...I may have to break down and get that countdown app for my laptop too...how much fun is that to have...

We have stayed in Buildings 3, 4 and 6 and have never had a parking lot view! I have thought about requesting a corner room for just that reason; have had them at other moderate resorts before.

I can certainly add some requests. The corner room would be my first request. Second or third floor is also nice, although we have had a ground floor room before and liked it a lot. I will call WDW tomorrow or Thursday and add some requests.

 

[DisneyBride'03]

Corner room request sounds great...and thanks for blowing my bldg/parking lot theory to he!! ! LOL

 

[creativeamanda]

LOL, am I the only person in the world who requests a parking lot view? I like to keep an eye on my car and not have far to travel with luggage.

Buildings 1 & 7 have the potential parking lot views. Building 1 is the farthest away from the bus transportation. Bldgs 4 & 7 are closest to the buses. I've stayed at FQ probably 7 or 8 times and been in Building 2 all but 1 time, when I was in Bldg 3.

I'm not sure why, but Building 2 has just always called out to me!! My "top floor" preference (in Values & Mods), well.......... let's just say, I don't like to hear certain things!!!

We usually don't have our own personal car, and I have no desire to watch a rental. My luggage is on wheels and I don't find POFQ far to schlepp it to anyway, no matter which location.

I understand you, Laura!

It appears that one of my favorite things at WDW during the holidays is not going to be there this year. There is pretty substantial scuttlebut that the Lights of Winter, seen in my siggy photos, have not been put up and that there is no plan to install them this year.
