The VWL Groupies & Trivia Thread

[Granny]

Ooh a secret handshake...Makes me feel a little like Boris Badnoff and Natasha. I can't remember the squirrels name aagh!

Rocket T. Squirrel, to be exact! AKA "Rocky". I believe the other was Bullwinkle J. Moose, who was one of our earliest mascots at VWL!

Hey Groupies....I just posted on the What is your Favorite DVC Location thread with this post

I think all the Groupies should chime in on this one!!!

You are bad! No explanation at all

Welcome aboard Susan. Anyone who wants to claim our merry band of nutz is welcome especially when they come along with a group of gorgeous children. It makes all of us look good. Will this be your first time staying at the lodge? If so be careful, moose dust is highly addictive. Have fun!

Hey, everyone, thanks. Been to VWL twice, once in studio, second time in a wonderful corner one bedroom that was HUGE....can't remember the room number, but we had windows all over the living room and two patios. Love it. It's often difficult to get a ressie there, even though I own there. It is really my favorite place to stay.

Hot digity-dog!! Another groupie!!! Welcome aboard.

By any chance, have you read the past few pages about the, um extracurricular activities of the VWL Groupie children?

I just have a few questions:

Do you have children?
Have they ever been expelled from school?
Have they ever been arrested?
Do they keep in touch with their friends at "Juvie"?

Just funnin' ya!

Grab a moose and sit a spell. (Just copy and paste the properties of our siggie and put them in yours!)

 

[Muushka]

Oh, I just went back and saw that you do have children!
Well, look back and learn what you are in for!
And whatever you do, DO NOT let them know what your member number is!!!

Hi, Groupies!

DW and I just watched the second disk of the Walt Disney Treasure "Rarities," which includes two Humprey shorts! Nice to see our favorite bear up on the screen.

I got my computer back today with pics from our trip last Christmas. Thought I had lost them all but they were safe. I have now of course made multiple of backup copies & am in the process of adding them to photobucket.

I only have a couple of decent pics of our beloved lodge. For some reason a never take many pics of anything but the family. Thought I would share these to get you all in the mood for Christmas.

The lobby tree:

Christmas Day Activities in the lobby:

Oh yeah, I have one of those trouble making Groupie kids getting put in jail Christmas day at WCC too!

I have one more of the Villa tree that I will post later. Haven't got it uploaded yet.

 

[Muushka]

Thank you for the glimpse of Christmas, Lori. It has been 10 or so years since we stayed there for Christmas day. What can I expect?? I remember Mickey and Minnie all dressed in their holiday clothes and choirs singing. Anything else? What are the kiddos doing?

Thanks for the pics JT. As always, fun to see.

Hi, Groupies!

DW and I just watched the second disk of the Walt Disney (Treasure "Rarities," which includes two Humprey shorts! Nice to see our favorite bear up on the screen.

What is the Rarities all about? Where do you get the DVDs (?) from? Sounds like something interesting. Any backstory on our boy Humphrey?

 

[loribell]

Well there were no characters there that we saw but there were plenty of choirs there throughout the entire week. They had a long list of activities for the kids to do all day long. From what I remember there was cookie decorating, ornament making, plate making, lots of games being played in the lobby, and I just can't remember what else. I know we could have stayed in the lobby for hours!

The choirs every night were amazing. It just added so much to the atmosphere, like it needs any help! Christmas dinner at WCC was terrific.

I hope we can do it again in a couple of years and take the whole family with us. I loved it but felt really weird not having the whole family together for Christmas.

 

[Muushka]

No Mickey and Minnie? They were so cute. That's OK. We will be at VWL for Christmas . And we, too, will eat Christmas dinner at WCC. Should be fun! Thanks for the heads up .

 

[jimmytammy]

Great pics! I am so gonna miss not being at VWL in Dec.

By the way, I loved all your pics. Do you have any more to post????

 

[50 years Too!]

Ohh, I just love all the pics. Thanks all you photographers. I'm so bad, I take Xmas and birthdays!
Have any of you lucky groupies going for the season booked a sleigh ride?
I so want to do that in 08.
