Thank you MiaSRN62, Granny and jimmytammy for the quick responses to my question about the walking trail. Looking forward to our stay at VWL and to taking strolls along the path. I just love DVC and the ability to experience different resorts!

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.




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

You know what's funny Stoph?
I HATE sushi and I, too, am allergic to strawberries! Chuck will eat the strawberries for us!

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!

Will do, thank you.

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!!

I thought the same thing! (about my rear end, not yours!)

I must demand that you DO NOT stop with the pics Muushka ! This ship looks AMAZING !!!!!!!!!! I want to hear lots more about it. Happy upcoming anniversary----you and Mr Muushka are celebrating in true style

Okaaaayyy....now I want sushi lollis !!!

Yes, we snagged a suite last minute for a great deal. We love this class of ship and it is our 3 rd cruise on the "S" class.
If I could bring home the sushi lollis for you, I would!

Hi dislainey

We have taken that walk many times and it is one of our favorites.
I wear my MP3 and when a good song comes on and there is nobody around, I dance on the trail!

Enjoy

 

[MiaSRN62]

How long will you be away from us Muushka ? Enjoy your cruise !!!

 

[Muushka]

We leave on Sat the 3rd, board on the 5th and disembark on the 17th. That's 2 weeks if anyone is keeping score!

 

[dislainey]

Thanks for the tip, Muushka. iPod packed....I will be the one singing on the trail with my husband walking 3 feet ahead and pretending he doesn't know me!
Enjoy your cruise!

We are trying something new, cruising out of Bayonne, NJ. Soooo much closer than Ft Lauderdale. And should be interesting, 3 days down and 3 days back first and last 2 should be fairly chilly. After this year, no more NJ for Celebrity, sadly.

Have a wonderful trip Jimmy and Tammy and kiddos!

Thanks! VWL is my favorite place because its just specular! Every detail is gorgeous! I also spent the first week of married life at VWL...

I think in a weird way my grandfather is with me when I'm there... He loved everything Yellowstone and log cabin...

Awww, that is so sweet. I can imagine that would make our beloved Lodge so special for you.

I agree with it being spectacular and loving all the details of the Lodge. Right down to the smells, sounds and sights.

I love the walk from the Villas to Roaring Fork for my cupa Joe in the AM.

I love the walk from the docks to the villas.

I love the Electrical Water Parade!

I love people coming in for the first time and watching their jaws drop.

Welcome Figmentfan. Most of us here definitely know what you are talking about. WL evokes those types of feelings. One of my favorite things to do is to go to the lobby of the villas very early in the morning and have a coffee in front of the fireplace. I go in the summer time and since my brood tends to sleep in, it is so peaceful watching the world wake up in the lodge. The music is almost spiritual and it seems like it simply infuses my entire body with good vibes.

Any time you fall in love with a resorts elevator doors you know you've got it bad.

One of my favorite feelings is coming around the bend on the lake from MK and seeing the WL through the trees.

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.

The path is wonderful but if you prefer a bit more solitude, you can take the sandy nature trail that starts behind the bike rental shop and follows the shoreline of the lake for nearly half a mile before turning up to join the paved walking path. Actually, you can follow the nature path all the way around the lake to the back of FW and work your way through a cast member parking lot to the main area. Either way, it's a fun excursion. I run the various paths every time I hit VWL, and I can tell you it's closer to a mile if you start right at the Villas and go all the way down to the dining area at FW. On a side note, you can actually walk/run/bike around the campgrounds in FW as they have paths criss-crossing all over. Enjoy!

Good morning friends

I'll stop with the pictures now!

Anywhoo, we are looking forward to our anniversary cruise!

No need to stop Muush! I loved looking at the pics! Looking forward to seeing one of you in that chair!

 

[dislainey]

Thanks for the tip, sleepydog25 about the nature trail over to FW. We are thinking about walking over to the dining area at FW and maybe trying the fried chicken. Walking over and back cancels out any calories that we eat!
