The VWL Groupies & Trivia Thread

[jimmytammy]

Okay... I just finished reading every single page on this thread DH and I are from California and spent our Honeymoon at WL 5 years ago..first trip ever to WDW Christmas The good news (or bad depending on how you look at it) we have just purchased a DVC membership at VWL now we just have to get thru ROFR I am trully sick to my stomach waiting..

I trully want to be a groopie !!

Please send your pixie dust my way

Pixie Dust coming your way!

 

[keliblue]

I hope to say Welcome Home neighbor very very soon!

And hello to fellow groupie MaryJ

For a small resort, we are getting to be a big group.

The more the merrier!

We will only be taking up a "little" space , one week a year That is until we retire then I just might live there ... oh ya, that would take more points

Boy o boy, did I get kicked out of the group or what? I go away for 1 day and when I come back, folks have a really cool VWL groupie tag (I'm officially throwing a virtual tantrum here).
I'm resorting to shameless begging, I vow on Fess Parkers grave to never stay at any other DVC if some one tags me.

I dont think the Tag Fairy hit everybody here, including myself. But I would be glad to share mine. PM me and I will tell you how you can latch on. I would tell you now, but my DW, who is computer savvy will have to help. Im computer

 

[MiaSRN62]

Maybe if I bribe someone with a VWL pic of the day, I can get the tag too ?

 

[Muushka]

I don't think the tag fairy hit anybody here, we are just plain old thieves! We captured the picture.

But we (as a group) did get a visit and that is better than nothing, right?

 

[Granny]

I thought it was a very nice present from the TF. It is a real badge of honor for us to wear!!

And for those who might like a smaller version of the icon, feel free to grab the one out of my signature!

 

[Muushka]

No thanks Granny, I like mine big and bold!

But how did you do that?

Did it, thanks Bobbi!
PS. I'm very close to letting go of the Member Cruise icon...really, the VWL moose does say soooo much about what I like!

 

[keliblue]

I just love the hidden Mickey on his antlers..

 

[Granny]

No thanks Granny, I like mine big and bold!

But how did you do that?

Just saved the picture into my computer, resized it, and re-posted it on the DIS Boards photo page.

I like big and bold too, but how are we ever going to keep this awesome resort a secret if we're too bold with our statements!

On our most recent trip to VWL we had 2 friends visit us everyday.

Great pictures !! Do you know if there are ground floor rooms with decks that are off the quiet pool ??

There aren't any, at least I didn't see, ground floor that face the pool. The one side faces the woods and I'm not sure but I think the other side faces the walkway from the Lodge to the Villas.

 

[Granny]

I wouldn't call them decks...more like little patios. Here's a picture of the back side of VWL near the quiet pool, and you can see the rooms on the bottom of the picture with the patios.

 

[The Tag Fairy]

Yes, is this up for grabs?? Because I just grabbed it! Let me know if this is not all right! Love it!!!

Of course you may use it. I made it just for my fellow VWL groupies. Fairy’s need places to stay too and this fairy chooses VWL. You'll know when I'm there if you see the lights flickering under the covered walkway. That usually means I'm either charging my cell phone or I fired up the electric mosquito zapper. They might seem little to you, but to me they are like flying Pit Bulls!

Mr. Granny has a point about the size of the graphic, so I made one with his dimensions but from the original so it looks smoother:

Use whichever you choose

Last time I talked to him, I think he said his name was Marty, but I was a little tipsy from hanging out at the Adventurer's Club, so I might have misheard him. I just learned to speak moose too, so his name could be Fred for all I know.

 

[The Tag Fairy]

Oops, someone stole his ears, let me buy him a new pair...

All set!

TF...thanks so much for your generous efforts! I've already switched mine out for your new and improved image. I suppose our Lodge meetings will include an official "moose-mouse ears hat" for our grand poobah!!

And you have great taste in resorts! I'll be on the lookout for a darting little light in the Iron Spike room from now on! Of course, it could be that impetuous little cousin of yours!

BTW, no need to get formal among us VWL Groupies. Besides, Mr. Granny just doesn't sound quite right!

 

[Muushka]

Well I guess I am frugal, so may as well save a little bandwidth, right?

Thank you TF, we appreciate your visit and the fact that you have such great taste in DVC resorts.

But that does not surprise any of us VWL groupies, does it!

 

[keliblue]

Granny, Can you walk to the pool from the patio's ?
