We had a major repair to our septic system recently, as well. In short, we wound up needing a new dispersal tank, three new dispersal lines (lines, ha! They're the diameter of a large tree), and all the backhoe work that went with it. Our front yard looks like a fill dirt site. :eek:

On a side note, although I'm happy for all the Aulani owners and visitors, I'm beginning to think there should be a separate sub-forum just for Aulani news, reports, and questions. Whew!

Ah Sleepy, you can relate. It sounds like your troubles were greater than ours!

I was just noticing that we will just miss you at WDW in June. We are going before our DCL Fantasy on 6/15 with our time at WDW the week before. We are just missing you! But considering that it is your wedding and honeymoon, I guess that is a good thing! I hope it is wonderful!:goodvibes
 
Jambo house !

Oh....wanted to mention I'm making a quick trip to FL soon. Only 5 days---main priority of the trip is to help my daughter with wedding plans. But we'll spend 3 days in WDW Mar 4, 5 & 6 (my flight doesn't leave till 8:30 pm so this is practically a full day !). We are staying at Art Of Animation. The cool part is I might get to finally meet up with Julie ! Our dates cross March 4 ! I hope it works out.


Well, not as cool as that, but you might get to meet up with me too! Julie and I are working on a mini-meet and March 4 may work out! PM coming your way!

Fortunately, the system was working the entire time; it just needed the dispersal lines and secondary tank replaced. Of course, about the time they were nearing completion, we had all that snow, followed by flooding rains, more snow, ice, wind chills below zero, and finally more snow/ice again over the course of nearly a month. They finally finished a couple of weeks ago.

Yes, we will just miss you it seems. We'll be in Florida a couple of days before heading over the World, but we aren't scheduled to check in until 1 July. Our kids and they're SOs will be there, but beyond that, it will be a low-key celebration followed by the cruise. After this winter, we're ready. (Though I realize we've had it much better off than the poor folks up in NJ and points north.) :thumbsup2

Ugh. Your problem sounds even worse than ours! (septic that is).

You have some great plans ahead of you with your wedding!:goodvibes

Let's see....W.....let me think......

Walt Disney!!!

Just wanted to pop in and say HI! I am missing Disney something fierce today. It is COLD here, and I miss the days when I was laughing at everyone's "I'm so cold" Facebook messages while I layed out at Samawati Springs :beach:

And, I wasn't here for the beginning of this game, so I don't know if it's cheating because it's not in the beginning, but ---

EXpedition Everest! :cool1:
 
Hi Groupies :wave2:!
Just a quick drive by to say 'hi' to all of you from Aulani! This resort is beyond description; wonderful, fantastic, beautiful. The Hawaiian history represented in all aspects of the resort is a testimony to Disney and Hawaiian heritage. My hope for each of you is that you someday have the opportunity to experience this exceptional place.

We're here for a few more days. I'll check in with you once we're back home.

Aloha, my friends!

That sounds wonderful, looking forward to seeing it one day. Enjoy the rest of your trip! :)
 
In exactly two weeks from today I'll be at VWL for the first time, I'm getting excited! :cool1:
 
2 days until my trip to the world and I am excited and nervous. I wish we were staying at our villas, but alas, this is a cash trip. Thus, it's value for us. Not gonna lie, I'm a little scared. Lol. I know our villas have us spoiled (what do you mean no coffee pot in the room?!), but must remember its still Disney after all!!

Kathy -- I know you will have a great time! And I've done a lot of research -- I read that some of the value resorts actually have quieter rooms than the villas -- due to the outdoor room entry. They have to insulate a lot better.

Honestly, we are staying at VWL to make me and my husband happy -- I know my kids are enthralled with the idea of the value theming. It sure does look like lots of fun!

You'll have to send pictures and let us know what you think! Just consider it an adventure -- getting out of the comfort zone!

I'm excited for you!
