We are so excited about the 150 point contract we signed on 02/17. We are awaiting ROFR. We paid $66 a point for this contract and was wondering if that was a good price or a high price? We used the TTS.
Please let me know because I see all kinds of lower deals for SSR on these boards and hope it seems OK to you all!

Hi all! I need some help.... We are staying at SSR for a special occasion and I need to know where we can buy a nice bottle of champagne for the room. We are flying in so bringing it with us is not an option. Any suggestions?

Can you put it in your checked luggage or are you afraid it would get too shaken up to open? I sure Artist's Palette would have some.

. . . . . . . . One thing I did notice was there are now 7 rocker at CP. I think it started out with just 4 or 5. Looks like theres more room for us morning coffee rocking types

I hope it is because we have been talking about the Rockers for a long time here on the DisBoard.

Maybe Disney is listening . . .

Your SSR resale contract was cheaper than ours. Were you able to get any extra points out of it (banked, this years pts)?

It's probably been said but when is the Paddocks pool supposed to be done? I've read this whole thread but kind of skimmed some but we're staying in a THV in Sept. and curious if it'll be done by then. We're so excited, we rented points to check it out and if we enjoy it as much as all of u we'll become dvc members! Yay!

 

[Dizny Dad]

The new Paddock Pool is scheduled to be open in June of this year.

 

[ewebet]

Yes, we received 138 points from Dec '10 + 12 banked points from 2010. 150 points coming in Dec '11 and 150 Dec '12 points. I had myself all upset but now I am realizing that this contract is pretty good! I am back to being very excited! Can't wait to use my points!

And maybe it will fill the new pool up sooner!

Pictures taken March 10th, and yes the rain is filling the pool quickly, just not sure how the mud deck would feel between the toes

lying in bed on my laptop looking through all the ssr photos just wishing i was there but then remembering that though i am not it wont be long before we are booking in again, swimming in the pool, enjoying the walks, standing on the bridges across the lakes watching the fish and turtles, sitting at the bus stop watching each bus come in and wondering which bus to get on, what wonders will we enjoy today. walking to down town disney in the evening just trying to squeeze some more fun into the day. turning the tv on and hearing the voice of the women going through her top ten rides.
disney fun

Thanks for posting, I've sent the post to my family, so they can be excited too!

 

[kmccartney]

Thanks!

ont/ohana - Thanks for the pictorial update! So cool to see the progress!

Oh, How much I hate that as I watch it at least once every trip - Oh, how much that thought makes me feel at "Home"!

Looking forward to hating it again soon . . .

You mean "Stacy". She keeps me girls entertained and she is cute, so I don't mind watching the top 10. When we ride in the car (as in everyday, not just to WDW, we play Top 10 rides.

I know if I played, my list of Top 10 Rides would include the Rockers on the river at CP, any of the Rockers at the VWL, the Hot Tubs at the resort I was staying in at the time, and the Sleigh ride at Christmas time at FW. (I might mention Toy Story Mania and Soarin', too, but they would be below the others!)

WDW is what you make of it! (and there is definately something for everyone!)

One of my Top Ten would be the SWA plane i'm on for only 2 hrs. The wait for Soarin was 1-1/2 hrs. and a fast pass was even longer.

The 13 hour car trip is not my favorite. Jealous.
