Got back home yesterday after 6 wonderful nights at VB.

We had our 9 year old DGD with us. We let her bring a friend. Things worked out just fine. The girls had a great time in the pool, doing crafts, in the pool, playing miniture golf, in the pool, watching DVD's and in the pool.

We did one of the morning nature walks with Mary Ann. She brought a box of stuff. Inside of it were snail egg casings. The next day our DGD found a casing on the beach. It was from a lightning whelk. A couple days later we found a small lightning whelk snail on the beach. It will make a great show and tell for school.

Weather was perfect. Despite all the rain in the south east US, we were dry almost all the time. We did have some rain last Sunday AM, and we played miniture golf through it.

Our room was great. The pull out couch bed seemed new, in fact, everything seemed new. One girl slept on the pull out chair one night, but couldn't see the TV from there, so moved to the pull out couch.

We didn't use the beach chairs and umbrella much. The girls wanted to be at the pool and, other than collecting shells, didn't want to be at the beach much.

I am considering a subsidized 50 point contact. The member fees are just about $1.50 less per point than a non subsidized point contact.

How much more should I expect to pay?

Not sure, but it IS interesting to see now that you know that the Subsidized contracts DO convey that you are interested in buying rather than selling Good luck with your purchase... BTW... It interests me now too!

Well, a 50 pt. contract, subsidized, just sold for $65/pt. (had all banked pts., and current UY pts). Thought that was yours you were selling...

We were in a 1BR. Room 1412. Right next to the pool, especially when we discovered the back gate to the pool area (next to Eb & Flo's). We were on the first floor with view of bushes...but it was fine. I really like the large balconys compared to some of the other DVC resorts.

DW and I were at VB last week and had a great time! We had an OVIR, 2427, which is on the north end of the inn. This picture is a composite panorama that I stitched together from six pictures taken from our balcony.

 

[DisDaydreamer]

Ok, call me ignorant, but why is the link disrupted?

Hey, A Really Bad Egg... can you try something like Yahoo Streaming... or some other video stream site? Still not sure why your link was cancelled?
