QOTD

DVC Hawaii first for me, one of the reasons I decided to buy in, hope they have an equivalent to magical express to both the airport and the ferry. Fly in stay a couple of days at DVC hop the ferry to the big island for a week (our usual destination, brother has a Kona Coast TS) then ferry to Maui or Kauai for a couple of days then back to DVC to finish out. A few years off but I can dream can’t I?

Hey there!

I'm hoping that Disney Cruise Line has a big presence there. Fly into the airport, ME to DVC, stay a few days...BOARD CRUISE for desired length, stay a few more at DVC...then home, boo hoo

WOW and Congrats Tammy, is this your first contract to close or do you already have a home resort points at BWV? If my memory serves (and it may not as my boys are always saying "Mom, your memory is flying of the shelf!" ) if you have a certain use year and you add on points with the same use year, you won't be getting a new number or card. Your new points just get added on as a suffix to your existing main contract number. My BCV contract got added onto my main contract. My main contract number is 689.000 and my add-ons are 689.001, 689.002, etc.. (Yep, I'm an oldie, but goodie.

The 10 day countdown begins!

Hey everyone! Home from work...2 down, 10 to go..

OK, so far just got an email from Nancy saying she'd finished my closing and it would take Disney 10 days to have a number for me. No email from TTS with a phone number etc of who to call yet.

For todays QOD, I'd go to Hawaii hands down. My husband and I will make it there eventually. I'd love to dive Maui. I know I'll hate the flight though.

Cybertea, beautiful Poly pictures. I really like the Poly, stayed there a long time ago and enjoyed it.

Welcome to all the new folks who've joined us. Hope you have fun on the thread...

Hey Tink!

I just got home and today is 10 days (actually 9 to be exact )from my closing date...AND MY POINTS ARE IN MY ACCOUNT! They have to manually enter your contract's points into the system, so give them a little more time and they'll be there. I know the waiting is the worst part. Before you know it, it'll be day 10!

Thanks...I'll try to be patient, at least I'm able to look around on the DVC site

Congratulations!! I can't wait to join you! Please keep us all informed as to how long it takes to get your number and then how long it takes to get your points.

Welcome Home, Tammy! The founding mother has her contract!

 

[Princess Amy Lyn]

Congrats Tammy!!!

QOD...I would say Euro Disney...I love Paris. Since we live on the West Coast Hawaii is the same flight time as to DW. We have gone to Hawaii more that DW...but that is going to change when we are DVC owners!!!

Going to Paris, not only can you go to Euro Disney, you can also go on all of the great tours of the city. Take the chunnel to London, the Euro Rail to anywhere in Europe really easy....

Ok now I'm ready for another trip ...

 

[HolidayRoad]

I am sooooo ready for WDW!

6 Days 6 hours 7 minutes and 28 seconds

Good night everyone.

Hi All,

Thanks for the warm welcome to the ROFR thread!!

You asked for details, so here we go: We went through the TTS and are hoping to begin with a 150 point SSR contract, with a June use year. It's our first (but long planned) venture into DVC and I don't think it will be our last. With this contract we're a little concerned that it might not make it past ROFR, but are in for the long haul. TTS told us that it's about a 50-50 chance that it make it through, so time will tell - if not this time, then we'll simply try for another one.

Keep your fingers crossed for us folks.

Good morning all!!! I'm up early to get that uniform washed. My trip to the airport stopped my plan to do it last night and after Samantha, I went to bed. We have another game today. Doesn't look like rain but I think we are going to freeze. Only going to be mid 40'S here. That is 20-25 below normal. Brrrr. I guess it is back to the winter coats.

DH never said a word if he smelled any smoke. And he even sat in the chair next to the fireplace. I will tell him but not until after he gets some sleep after his long, painful trip home. He heads back out on Monday. I will not touch the matches this time!!

Well, starting monday, we should be 'in the zone" where we could hear something anyday. Now I am starting to get nervous. There a quite a few of us that should be "in the zone" next week. It's going to be a great week, I can feel it!!

Good Morning Folks......it was so nice to be able to sleep in this morning, didn't get out of bed until 7:30.........

A friend of mine sent me these pics and I thought I'd share them here with my fellow DISfriends.

These are the Thunderbirds flying over the MK and EPCOT.
