Come out west my freezing groupie friends! Nights are cold in Reno but 50's during the day. Or a little spot in Anaheim, CA looks like it's having 70's! Meet you all at Hearthstone lounge and then a short walk to DL for Fantasy in the Sky Fireworks?

Happy Saturday Groupies....and.....Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, happy belated birthdays and anniversaries to all! Taking a trip to the world in December coupled with my new job really was not a very smart thing to do. Hope you are all well.

QUESTION:
We are five in a studio this May. Two 8 year olds and three adults, tight, yes, but we will manage. We have always seemed to get the dedicated studios at the very far end of the long hallway. That studio has two closets, one standard size next to the bathroom vanity and a second smaller one next to the hallway door. We really need that second closet on this trip. Do all studios have that second closet, oR just the dedicated ones, or just those four at the very end of the long hallway on each floor. Trying to decide what my request might be. I believe odd numbers are towards the water (that, I know you can't really see)... We have had the dumpster view too! I like highest floor possible, but this time, I would prefer the two closets, even if it means dumpster
Can anyone help me out here. Thanks

My fellow groupies, my friend CodeSpyder, programmer of the DVC Planner universal app, has a request. He'd like to have some pictures. He'll credit you on his website.

The pictures he needs are a resort shot (and if you want to size it, please size it at 600x400 pixels). He also needs an 'icon' type pic sized 70x70 pixels. He needs these pics for the following resorts.

Aulani (not construction pics)
Polynesian Villas and Bungalows (Can be a recent construction pic or a general resort pic)

Please send pics to him at codespyder@webspydercode.com.

Thanks.

As I always advise those heading to VWL, I recommend a lake view side, close to the elevators room, and floors 2 through 4. If fulfilled, then you might have glimpses of Bay Lake, won't be near the dumpsters, will likely have some views of Hidden Springs pool, and won't have the dormer-style balcony which cuts off your views of the 5th floor.

PirateGranny: Sorry, I don't know the answer to your question. Perhaps someone else can help.

To all who have sent me birthday greetings, thank you, but I'm having an "unbirthday" today. Sorry. What that means is I'm regressing in age, not progressing. We mostly celebrated yesterday by going to see "Into the Woods" (meh ), shopping at Fresh Market, and spontaneously opting to dine out at our fave restaurant, Noble's Grill in Winston-Salem. Superb! Today has been low-key, though I did make homemade Italian sausage with my new KitchenAid mixer attachment for grinding meats. That means tonight will be luv's famous and delicious vodka sauce with penne pasta and my sausage. Thank you all for the warm wishes and continued friendship. JT said something about me being a leader of the pack, but truly I'm honored to be the current keeper of the thread and mostly, to be called friend to each of you, both those I've met and have yet to meet. Thank you all!

Thank you so much! And a very happy unbirthday to you!

And thank you, Marla!

To celebrate, luv and I just booked a DCL cruise for anniversary in July! We had been planning to go back to HHI (non-DVC) since we had such a good time last year, but given we might not be back in the World together until 2016 , the more we thought about it, a cruise wouldn't be too terribly much more than a trip to HHI (at least where we stay). So, we're booked, and I've added us to the First Page travel list.
