Stopher and Maria - sounds like we should plan a meet.

 

[Brian Noble]

I need a Lodge and WDW fix. Who's with me?

Me. But I check in tomorrow. My flight is at 8A. Maybe I should pack....

For sure Diane

Get crackin' there Brian and have a great trip

Me too WD. Cant wait to be there to eat at WCC in 2 weeks. You know I cant be there without wandering around, hanging at the Carolwood Pacific Room and just chillin'

 

[blossomz]

Count me in for a fix!!!!

 

[claire_ont]

Count me in for a lodge/Disney fix as well. We are doing a Mother?Daughter cash trip to POP Century May 3 - May 8th. It is to celebrate her 19th birthday (April) and the end of her first year of university. We are planning to visit the lodge and the campground while we are there.

It will be our first trip without my husband and her younger sister. I am really looking forward to it being just the two of us. I think it will be a special time, and as she gets older there may be less and less of these. My youngest is already looking forward to her trip after her first year of university (two years away).

Would love that!

And if you'd like, we could do our "usual", or we could take it into the parks this time, or a combination. I'm flexible.

Hey Groupies! Happy Sunday night.

I shared this with those of you whom I'm friends with on Facebook, but for the rest of you, I thought I'd put it here as well. Our beloved VWL was "in the spotlight" today in my blog. Just had to share.

Heading to Disney for leap day. Doing a split stay..OKW and VWL. Curious...Is there a path to walk to Fort Wilderness from Wilderness Lodge? Thanks for your help.

I did "like" this when I read it on Facebook Christopher ! I could not have described our VWL any better !

dislainey : Curious...Is there a path to walk to Fort Wilderness from Wilderness Lodge? Thanks for your help

Yes there is dislainey....I have not taken it before, but I am aware of one----I've seen guests riding bikes on it.
Have a great time celebrating Leap Year !!!!

Oh yes...a very nice paved path suitable for walking, jogging or biking. It is not illuminated, so daytime trips only. But don't be surprised if you see deer along the path, or other wildlife. We always walk that path a couple of times each trip to WL.

Here's an aerial view of the path (red line).

Hey Stoph - Am I sensing the beginninings of a Groupie meet for April/May?

 

[jimmytammy]

Stopher
Great description of our fav resort!

dislainey
The path is about 3/4 mile, easy to navigate. We like to walk it, stop at the stables and check out the horses/ponies, then trek back "home"

Good morning friends

Busy busy, fun kind of busy. Getting ready for our cruise that we start 1 week from today!

Next Saturday we drive to MD and stay with some great friends that used to live here in NC.

Then Sunday AM we leave for NJ and finally meet I Book and Him! Really looking forward to meeting our beloved Trish and hubby.

Then on to a hotel that provides parking and on Monday take the shuttle to Bayonne NJ and board the beautiful Silhouette!

We plan on checking out this area, new for this class ship

This is not me, but I want to sit in this chair!

yes, that is real grass

We will eat at a specialty restaurant, Qsine, where you order your meal from an iPad!

And the food comes in, um, unusual forms:

Sushi lollipops!

Yum. What they do with strawberries!

I'll stop with the pictures now!

Anywhoo, we are looking forward to our anniversary cruise!

I hope you have a wonderful time! The pics are all very nice, except this one just doesn't appeal to me at all. But then that particular food choice never has... personal perference - bleh.

Sushi lollipops!

And I can't do these either... but that's because I'm allergic, not because I don't like them.

Yum. What they do with strawberries!

 

[DiznyDi]

Wow, Muush! Looks like a great Anniversary Cruise!
Your week will go by quickly. Before you know it, you'll be boarding this beautiful ship!
Say hello to Trish for all of us!

 

[Granny]

stopher...thanks for the link to your description of VWL. Very nicely done!


Muush....looks like a great adventure awaits you. Amazing how they continue to evolve the cruise experience. And that chair looks like even my rear end would fit in it! Have a wonderful time!!

Claire ....this is awesome ! I did a mother/daughter trip when Brittany was 19 too. She is now 21 and graduating from FSU and we'll be in WDW April 29-May 4 to celebrate her graduation. I completely understand how difficult it gets to spend time with them once they get older and especially move away to school. I've been living 1,000 miles away from my daughter for 4 years. It tears me up to be away from her, but I have seen her grow into such a mature and kind young woman. She still cherishes our "disney time" together thankfully and we hope to stay connected through WDW and other ways throughout the years. Have fun !
