Am all caught up
First off let me say congratulations and score for getting the upgrade to Concierge
Am loving this TR so far and cannot wait to read more
I was smiling so much reading about when you were driving up to the arch/entrance to the World and feeling excited for you

Thanks so much! Yeah, I pretty much freak out every year at the first glimpse of those arches!
How wonderful! The GF Concierge has a wonderful staff.. we've stayed many times and always felt so pampered!!!!
I know what you mean, it was like we didn't need to lift a finger and everyone was just so friendly! It is how vacation should be!
What an awesome start to your honeymoon!!! Can't wait to read more!!
Thanks so much! Glad you are enjoying it!
YAY! Score on the upgrade! And the second fridge!
So.....a few questions:
Staying Concierge, would you still do Deluxe?
How bad was the construction?
Thanks!
Mrs. Spratt
Let's see...I would definitely do Deluxe again, with or without concierge. We loved being so close to the MK or any park for that matter. As for the construction, there was a giant orange tractor thingy outside (I think pictures will show up later) which we could see from our view to the left. One morning they were painting outside our balcony, so the desk called us and advised us to keep the shades closed..didnt matter because we were going to be out all day. On other days it could be kind of loud when they were working, however, we were barely in the room to notice it and it would begin around 9 AM. i could see this being a problem for people who like to sleep on vacation or have small kids who need naps, but we werent bothered by it one bit, had we paid money for the room, we may have been a little more disappointed. Hope that helps!
WOW! ! ! What a cool start to a romantic honeymoon!!! Congratulations on your cool upgrade!
Yes, it was the best way to begin, a little pixie dust!
Congrats!! I hope you all the best.
Aw thank you !
First of all - congratulations to you both!! How exciting a trip this has been already


I got goosebumps reading about your upgrade - how neat was that. Your room was beautiful (I don't think the construction would have been a bother esp since you are out at the Parks all day except if you wanted to nap). I would have been afraid to ask to move and not get another concierge room!
I had to laugh when I saw where you ended up at the CM parking lot

Leave it to modern technology to get a person lost (and your gut instints were right! Google/Yahoo or whatever had terrible instinks!!

)
Hi! I am glad you are enjoying it! That is exactly why I didnt want to say the construction was a problem, I didnt want a downgrade!!
DH and I still laugh about the CM parking lot, and it is not the last run in we have with CM parking lots on this trip. Stay tuned...
What an awesome upgrade!
Disney sure knows how to share the magic!
I know what you mean, it is what makes us want to go back again and again!
Congrats on the concierge, that was such a nice surprise... looking forward to seeing all the parts of the GF, we have not explored there.
Hi there! Oh you must explore the GF next time, it is just so pretty and you can walk to the Poly too!

BtW, I am reading along on your TR, started it last night and love it!!
What an amazing upgrade! I'm so glad y'alls first experience with staying on property was such a good one. Can't wait for more!
We always joke that we dont know if we could ever go back to staying off property...it was a completely new experience!
Wow what an awesome upgrade!


I know it still seems surreal!
Congrats on the marriage - love the wedding pic, looks like fun was had by all! Great upgrade at the GF - can't wait to hear and see more... Loving all the pics!
Thanks!! More coming soon!
Our family lives in Illinois too and I am loving your trip report. Congratulations on your wedding and your honeymoon at GF! I recognized the rest stop in Tennessee right before the Georgia line. We try to stop there when we can because it is so beautiful with the lake outside.
Hello fellow Illinois-an...We have never stopped at that lake, but I always wanted to, it really is so pretty!! Thanks for joining in!
joining in, congrats on the upgrade!
Thanks and
Whoa, nice upgrade!
Thanks, we were pleasantly surprised and thought it was a wonderful way to start the trip!
