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

We are keeping score Muush ! That is entirely too awesome !

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!

Wow! I did not know that! Can you dance without being seen on this sandy trail? Either way, I will check it out.

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

Yes, me too! But I will have to get my buddy I Book to I Post Pictures for Muush!



I was just noticing that a few of our new guests look like they could use a Moose for a siggy.
He would look very handsome on you!!!

Hi again,

Well I had 2 studio nights booked for our next vacation since somehow it has never worked out to stay at VWL. I thought better of it and changed it to 5 nights in a 1 br so we can really enjoy our first stay at the villas. June can not come soon enough.

Hmmm. . .I'm certain you can as part of the trail is rather secluded save for the rare runner or CM golf cart. The early part of the nature trail parallels the Villas building, and at various openings in the trees, you can see the balconies, thus I'm certain anyone standing on them can see you. Once past that area, however, you're pretty much alone especially if you stay on the trail vice turning and joining up with the paved path. Part of my love for VWL comes from the feeling of serenity it imparts, how quiet it is compared to other resorts. Being on any part of the trail only enhances that feeling.

And a hearty welcome to the new VWL lovers! Truly, this is one special bunch. . .

Yes! Nail on the head! When we go there in Dec, we will try this trail. And I will dance. And I will feel serene!

Yes, you will! I'd suggest just staying on the trail as it follows along the lake. Eventually, you'll come to a small parking area with a little hut and a basketball goal (presumably for CMs during downtime). You can either turn around and walk, er, dance back, or if you turn right into the compound, about 200 yards or so later, you'll come to the stables and main FW property. I'll see if I can leave you a marker when we visit in November!

Hello Groupies:

I think the last time I posted here was almost a month ago. I miss all of you and sorry that I haven't been around.

DH/I went to NH mid-February and had a nice vacation. I went skiing, horseback riding and we took a sleigh ride. Toured the area and enjoyed the beauty of the mountains. Gave me an opportunity to test out the new DSLR.

Now researching our AZ/Grand Canyon vacation in June. This will be our first time out there and can't wait to go.

Working on projects here, spring cleaning, taking mom to various appointments, etc. Two of our cats are having issues and one of them might be serious. Will know more tomorrow after the vet appointment.

I doubt I'll have time to read all the posts but a big welcome to anyone that's new here, happy belated birthday's for those that had a birthday celebration the last month, etc. Hope everyone is in good health and doing well.

Have a great day everyone!

Happy Birthday Muushka!

Hi I Book He Pays. No problem and no need to apologize for not being around lately. We all go through times like this, myself included. Your NH trip sounded so fun as does your upcoming Grand Canyon vacation.

All the best to your kitties ---hope they will be ok.

Thanks for kicking off Muushka's birthday celebration too !

R.I.P. Davy Jones ! I think he was supposed to perform at Epcot in May. He died of a heart attack in Florida

 

[BWV Dreamin]

Will be at WL in 3 days!!! THE BEST DVC RESORT EVER!! Can't wait to take the Carrolwood Train Tour at the villas. We are taking the walking trail from the boats over to Fort Wilderness and back hopefully everyday!! Can't wait to use the work out equipment, and get my spa massage!! Of course we will be visiting Territory Lounge and the hot tub! Oh, I guess I will have to fit in a Park day......

He was the entertainer for the last weekend of the Epcot Flower and Garden Festival and that is the weekend that we will arrive and I had planned on seeing him. Now I guess it is wait and see who they will get to replace him.

Happy Leap Day to one and all!!

Yes, you will! I'd suggest just staying on the trail as it follows along the lake.

I'll be looking for it!

Trish, thank you for the cakes!! Where in the world did you find a zebra mickey head cake? Doesn't surprise me!

Today is also Rare Disease Day. As someone with one (not life threatening), Happy Rare Disease Day!

I am so sad about Davey Jones. While he was not my favorite Monkee (Mickey, of course, was), he will be missed.
