I'll be there solo Sept 7-16 for my first ever trip. Both nervous and excited for September to come!
So excited to join in here. Used up all of our DVC points on a huge trip this month, so didn’t think we’d be able to go back until September next year. Plus our AP’s just expired. But my sister and her kids are going in September and got FD, so we just HAD to get in on the fun. Kids are so excited to go for the first time with their cousins. When we figured out that we could bridge those required hoppers to AP’s, plus get free food- basically paying for next September tickets too......it was a no brainer. I have to admit, I’m a little nervous to stay in a value for the first time in a long time, and coming off our trip this month split between a 2 bedroom at kidani and poly theme park view. But hey, we’re going with my sister that is a park commando, so we will probably not be there much. But that 140 countdown looks much better than the 500 it was at.![]()
So glad I found this - just added 3 nights to my BB I booked in April. Can't wait for F&W and my first BCV stay!!
Anyone notice that there are so many available reservations still available in September? It was not like this at all last year. I couldn't get everything we wanted but this year its all available! I hope it's an indication of low crowds!
I knew you’d be joining us.Hey April ladies!! I'll be coming back in September also. @wdw4rfam I promise I am not stalking you.![]()
Definitely no laughing here. I told myself that the September trip was going to be only going to be a quick trip at Universal for the HHN nights. But Yep, the opening of Toy Story Land "made" me add on two nights, so now starting the trip off at the Dolphin!I knew you’d be joining us.Just don’t laugh at me since every year I say I’m not going back in September anymore.
We just got home and said we weren’t going back until 2019. But just couldn’t wait until then to see toy story. My sister booked free dining so we figured, why not, we can upgrade those park hopper so to APs and use them next September too ( just a week earlier).
Just wanted to tell you we had Free Dining the week after Thanksgiving and stayed at ASSP.. We had a great time, the room was fine - we requested the baseball section and got it. it was close enough to the bus stop (taking the Parking Lot route) but a little further away from the food court (which we knew) We really liked the food court - we only had breakfast there and Thanksgiving day lunch - I had Tater Tots everyday for 9 days at Breakfast !!! (I am going to miss this at the Pop) It was pretty chilly so we did not use the pools.. I did use the laundry room, it was clean and there were plenty washers and dryers (we brought our own detergent and fabric sheets) Let me know if you have any questions and i'll do my best to answer you..
