Just checked the perks page on the DVC website...sorry..there is not one listed at the Mara...

Does anyone know if Maras has a DVC discount? I know that I have read various places that state that it does. However, when I was there in May, they said that they didn't have a DVC discount.

I believe there was a discount at one time, but it was very short-lived . Maybe they'll bring it back.

From MACIEC's post earlier,
I am just so excited to be getting to spend some much needed alone time with dh!!!! We will be celebrating our 10th Anniversary and our first trip home to AKV. I think that the only thing we have planned is to do the Sunrise Safari and a Candle Light Processional.


Thanks![/QUOTE]

Sunrise Safari and Candle Light Processional are both great anniversary things to do. Good choices! Hope you have a blast!

Thanks! I must have been looking at an old list.

Just sent my Fedex back! I'm so excited to own at AKV. We have a Dec UY and 160 points. I love seeing the animal pictures especially the baby giraffe. I'll be asking a lot of questions.

My husband and I just became AKV owners this past February. I would like to have the cute little zebra or rhino mascot as my avatar. How can I accomplish this?

TIA!

I clicked on the image and saved it to my computer. Then I uploaded it to Photobucket and linked it to my signature that way-it works the same way for your avatar.

Congratulations! We just closed on our AKV contract last week. Can't wait to book our 1st trip.

Anyone know if the handicapped accessible rooms are larger? We have one booked, just scared it will be tight squeezes with an elctric wheelchair.

I don't think they are any larger but they are laid out differently. For example in the HA studios I think they swap the usual positions of the bed and the couch (putting the bed next to the sliding door and the couch near the bathroom) which makes it easier to move around in the room with a wheel chair. In the 1BRs the bathrooms are laid out a little differently even if there is still a tub rather than a roll-in shower. They put the tub and toilet in a separate room at the back of the master bathroom with a sliding door closing them off from the rest of the bathroom. In non-HA rooms the tub is across from the vanity and the toilet is in a small room with a regular hinged door. Also, the bathrooms have one sink instead of two, I assume it's a sink that can be accessed from a wheelchair rather than the standard vanity.

ETA: It also looks like instead of a sliding door to the balcony there is a hinged door that opens out to the balcony.

Me too! I was just thinking about it last night. Then I realized that I probably won't see it until 2010 since I am planning on using my '09 pts to go to Disneyland for the first time. Hmmm, maybe I will need to slip in a short trip with the points left over from DL.

Your welcome!

My DH uses an ECV and we have no problems getting it into a regular room. FYI...a truly handicapped accessible room has a zero entry (roll in) shower and no tub-if you don't need that, there's really not a reason you'd need to request a handicapped room.
