The VWL Groupies & Trivia Thread

Hoppy Easter everyone

Does anyone here know if you can still get soft serve at Roaring Forks on the "new" Dining Plan? (for dessert or a snack)

I've looked through the DDP board and snack list but don't see it listed.

Is it coming by Moose?

I think so! Pack Moose! Those are the slowest mooses! Err, meese?

I don't remember for sure how long it took but we had a Christmas bulb shipped home a few years ago and it seemed to take forever to get here. I hope it is going to get there soon.

Okay, I can see that. Question to Disney, "Could you quote me a time of delivery?" Answer, "Forever and a day."

I too have had things shipped..it seems to take between 10-14 days..Hopefully it will get to you soon...

Okay, so it's not overdue at this point. Good news.

Hey Wilderness Dad,

I had my snowglobe shipped from the Mercantile a day or two before your wife bought yours, and we haven't received ours yet either. Packages and mail move very slowly out of Disney. I guess it just helps build the anticipation for when the goodies arrive.

I hate to say that misery enjoys company, but....

Thanks to all who replied.

As many of my fellow groupies know, my 2 sons, Sid the Squid (13) and Rizzo the Rat (17) have launched a campaign this year to make me appreciate each and every disney vacation I have planned. The Democratic national committee have inquired about their services.

Dh is building a storage shed in the back yard and in preparing the site, ran across some type of burrow (we thought either squirrels or rabbits). I in my misguided attempt to actually pass along some "miracle of nature" lesson to said offspring, showed Sid & Rizzo the burrow with all the appropriate "do not disturb" warnings. Sid in his eternal "can I make a buck out of this" thinking, promptly held a "name the easter bunny" contest for all his fellow deliquents. For a mere dollar, one got to gaze at the burrow and name one of the naked little creatures.
He collected $17.00 bucks after church today. Only 39 more days until I'm home again, only 1,925 more days until this kid is in college.

Blessed Easter to all.

Eliza, your boys are resourceful!
I missed the story about your boys campagne. Do tell? (the one to help you look forward to WDW trips).

I called the Wilderness Lodge for you and was transfered to Roaring Fork. They serve Edy's soft-serve ice cream. It is NOT considered a snack on the dining plan. I got that info from Disney Dining. I hope that helps!

Where else but here do people with nothing better to do than call Disney to help out their fellow mooselovers!!

Well..I guess that is just one more reason to add to why I chose disney dining experience over the dining plan for our next 2 trips. I really think in the long run..we'll do better!

well that really stinks!

That is one thing that our kids live on while at WDW. It's been counted as a snack and a dessert for the past three trips we've been there.

Thanks for calling :

I'm thinking of the same thing now! With 6 in our family at least the DDE will cover our tips, AND we can get appetizers instead of desserts.

Happy Easter everyone!

Just one holiday closer to VWL!!!

 

[Granny]

I'll chime in to wish all Groupies (aw shucks, non-Groupies too) a wonderful Easter! Great graphics from many of our Groupies today!

I agree.. ...we like to share an appetizer and share a dessert. Before..it was a no brainer to go with the dining plan, but now with all of the changes, I really think DDE is better..

And happy Easter to all...

I can now officially join this group. I found out last week that the offer I put on for a 210 point contract at VWL passed ROFR. I can't wait to get my paperwork so that I can book my first trip home this November. I haven't stayed at the WL yet, but it's always been my dream!

Happy Easter Groupies and
WELCOME HOME to Chickkypoo Congrats!
Many happy vacations to you!
