Happy Canada Day to you and the more days that pass, the faster your trip will be here.
 
Thanks for catching that! Its fixed now.

I added a new section I am VERY excited about!
Classic Contemporary Resort. Finally, I have all my older photos in one organized location on the site. If anyone has any old photos of the hotel they would like to share, I would love to publish them on the site with full credit to the photographer.

Here is the new page:
http://www.contemporaryresort.net/classic_contemporary.html
Thanks for fixing that page, because it's great to see what it looks like since the renovation.
 
Hi everyone! sorry I've been missing for so long.

Thanks for sharing the new links CRF4L. I really appreciate it! :goodvibes

I changed the page that shows the computers in the rooms to say that they have been removed, but internet access is still available for an additional charge.
Thanks for pointing that out, I forgot to do that! I'm kind of bummed about the computers.



I understand they removed the computers, but am wondering if they left the computers in club level rooms? :)

I LOVE the Classic Contemporary pictures. I really miss the Food and Fun Center, Concourse Steakhouse, etc. The new additions are nice, but some of us still miss the originals. Thanks for putting those pix up!!!

Even though I think the Contempo Cafe is a great replacement as a counter service location, I very much enjoyed going to the Food & Fun Center. I also thought the Concourse Steakhouse was a great location and their prices were very fair for that type of restaurant to be located in Walt Disney World.

Criag, I just wanted to say I added a link to the classic photos onto the 1st page. I put it at the top part of the page and it's under the link to the photos you took of the outside.
 
Anyone have any clue on how long the investigation of the monorail can take?

Some members of my party are upset for the driver, but also upset that the only time we will ever stay in a monorail resort, there could be no monorail.

Don't get me wrong, I am deeply saddened by this accident and the loss of a CM.

But so many things have gone wrong in the planning of this trip that I can't take it anymore.

I am not sure how long the investigation will take, however I am sure the Monorail will re-open very soon because it's something they can not keept closed for a long period of time. Also this is the 1st major accident to it in 38 years of service, so it's not like this happens all the time and I am sure they will see that.

Well, we got back from the CR resort yesterday and we were upgraded again from the 12th floor to a 2 bedroom suite on the 14th floor MK view right beside the Presidential suite. What a great surprise. We were just there 3 weeks ago for our daughter's 4th birthday and got upgraded from a tower room MK view to a 12th floor MK view. We just can't believe our luck! This time it was nice because my parents were with us and them being in their own separate room was great. They go to bed early. We were up late that night and we got back to the room around 1am and got our daughter settled and then went out to the balcony to have a night cap and we heard this terrible sound and we didn't know where it came from. About 5-10 minutes later, saw all the ambulances and fire trucks pulling up to the TTC. I got some really good video of what the scene was. Couldn't really tell exactly what happened until about 5 am when my dad got up and took a walk on the 4th floor and asked what had happened 3 hours before. That's when we knew. It was a very somber morning when we left. I felt so bad for the young man and his family.:sad1: You never think of something happening like that at Disney. Anyways, our trip in a whole was WONDERFUL and I will probably never get a chance to stay in a suite again, but we enjoyed the room to the fullest. :cloud9:

Thanks for the update.

We are leaving in 11 days. First time at a monorail resort. I'm excited about our MK view :)

Thanks for posting your review and congragulations on getting that upgrade. Were you able to take pictures of the suite and if so can you post them?

The monorail has reopened today
