Like Stopher1 I am planning on doing trip report but alas work is cutting into my Disney time at the moment. Haven't gotten thru all of that report yet but am looking forward to the reading! I also had a new camera that I was busily getting to know so there should be some pics as well.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Part 2 of my DL trip report is finally posted, if anyone is interested. It's long too... just another warning.

Hello everyone. We recently purchased at AKV. We are heading down in a couple weeks just for two nights. First night we'll stay at SSR on some of our developer points, but the second night we are paying cash for a value studio at AKV. (The discount is great!)

Anyone know what kind of "view" we can expect with a value studio? Do you think we'll face construction? That would be fine by me, because I don't mind watching our future home being built.

In case anyone is planning an up-coming trip, I scanned the activity list from my trip 2 weeks ago.

Well we will be leaving in about 24 hours to drive through the night.
If we leave by 1am then we would be able to be there by 10:00am.
I will update once I get there and get online.

Thank you so much for posting this!

Did you do any of the activities? I'm really excited about the Culinary Tour of Africa at Jiko! That looks great and free!

Me too, that's the one I'm considering. Has anyone done it?

I did the culinary tour a few years ago. They tell you all about Jiko (both the restaurant's decor and the menu items) and pass around some appetizers for you to try. Then they take you into Boma and one of the chefs talks about the food they serve there and they give you a sample of something. If I remember correctly, we each got to try some soup and a zebra dome!

Thanks so much for posting this - how neat to see, and think about our trip in October.

Just wanted to let you know we have been dealing with AKV concierge by email for our upcoming trip and they were quick in their replies and very helpful! Our Christmas adr's are coming up. It is soooo nice to have someone else do all the work for you. I could get used to this concierge stuff!

Thanks, Lisa! I sent your description on to friends. We're having a "no park" day and I know I'm interested in doing that! We're doing the FW Segway tour in the morning...Dinner at California Grill in the evening...I'm trying to find interesting things to do!

We did 3 of the activities: Story telling, Cultural Safari, and night vision. I thought all 3 were great! The story telling went about 30 minutes and was well attended. The Cultural Safari also went about 30 minutes but only 4 of us were there. The cultural safari that we went to ended up being on South African and was pretty interesting.

Thanks so much for posting this - how neat to see, and think about our trip in October.

You're very welcome! I am hoping to try some more of the activities out when I take my niece and nephew in November.

Me too! I was surprised to get it. When I was at AKL last year (May also), all I saw was the activity board and I thought thought that I would have to write everything down from it on this trip. So I was very excited to get handed the list when I was checking in.
