Is anyone checking in on Sunday the 25th?? Or even Sat.???? We were lucky enough to get 2 chairs/umbrella and some beach toys today from another Disboard family. I would love to pass them on to another!!!! PM me or reply on here.

Darn, we are not not checking in until the 28th. Nice of you to offer this out there though!

I was looking at the occupation thread and it occurred to me that I haven't seen Maria or Lisa R post for quite a while. I don't venture out of the DVC realm, so... Anybody seen (read) them lately?

Well tropical storm Bonnie put a damper on our day today. I have a couple restaurant suggestions. We did Mrs Macs Filling Station for lunch and it was yummy. The atmosphere was great too. We ate at Captain Hirams the other night and it was beautiful outside which made it even better. Tonight we had dinner at Mo-Bays and it was one of the best meals I have had in a long time. The jerk chicken ceasar salad was amazing!!! Originally we were going to Mamma Mias italian down the strip mall but they told us it would be a 20 min wait even though there were open tables. So Mo Bays won our business.

We ate at Mama Mias TONIGHT and it was GREAT!!!!! I think Mo Bays is in the same little strip mall.

Is that a new thread or an old one that came back to life???

I did find a couple posts from both about 2-3 weeks ago. I'm not panicking. Learned my lesson years back when I thought for sure starbox was missing. She was just on summer break and well... she didn't say she was going to be gone from the boards for a month.

Hi Rob! You called? I'm still here just a little less so, mostly lurking. I've been having a little dalliance on a cruise forum. We went on an Alaskan cruise at the beginning of the month and had to focus some of my trip planning obsession on that for the last few months. So, I'm slowly starting to come back to my first love... Disney. We do have a trip to plan for Feb you know!

Denise - I'm glad to hear someone else tried MoBay and enjoyed it as well. We had a wonderful meal there a few years ago.

It has been so long since we have been to VB. The beach reconstruction put a crap in our plans skipping VB this year is making me have to wait 4 years to return.


BTW Alaska was wonderful!!

Thank you to whoever suggested Bathtub Reef. We made the drive there today and it was worth every second. What a relaxing place and so much to see. Sadly no treasure find for us but lots of little critters to look at.

Twinprincesses: Can you please tell me about Bathtub Reef.
We are going to VB end of August with my 12 year old son, 16 year old dd, dh and my mother.
Is it a beach?
My ds loves his metal detector. We are hoping it unscrews and able to fit in suitcase for our plane ride down. Can you tell me more.
Thanks.

omg....I'd be looking for a tall building to jump off if I couldn't get my VB fix for 4 years!

Anyone there this week?

Hows the weather and the beach????

Cannot wait for some fun relaxing time at VB 4 nights following 3 fun nights at Kidani!

Did I say crap? I meant cramp. Although it felt like crap.

Can you add us to the roll call? We're heading to VB October 6th - October 12th. We went around the same time last year and everyone loved it!

It is a reef, it is nice cause you can just sit in the water and not worry about the sand getting everywhere.

The kids loved it because they could just hang out. I just hated the bunch of seaweed at the front of the beach but it was easy to go around. Plus if you have a snorkle you can see lots of fish up by the reef.

It was pretty busy on Sunday so I would say go on a weekday if you can.

We used this address 1585 SE MacArthur Blvd Stuart, FL

It's almost time to book next year's stay...I'm psyched!

 

[DisDaydreamer]

I've been having a little dalliance on a cruise forum.

Hey Lisa, glad to hear from you my friend.

I have to admit I had to look dalliance up. I like it. They say when you use a word three times it is yours for life. Got that one in the queue.

We just booked VB for 4 nights in October. We chose to book a studio instead of a OVIR because we like being able to close up the sofa bed and have more room in the room itself. I realize that the studios are in the buildings off from the Inn, but now have a few questions.

First, I've never been able to see a picture of a studio at VB. Does anyone know where I can find one?

Also, are there washer and dryers in the buildings for the studios??? Thanks!

 

[bobbiwoz]

There were washers/dryers in a room off of the garage, so, in the basement of the building we were in when we stayed in a studio. It was convenient.

Thanks so much! Do all the buildings with the 1/2 bedrooms and studios have parking underneath them?
