DH got me a wonderful slide show program as an early Mothers Day gift. I was playing around with it late last night with some of our VWL/WL photos from our 2009 trip.

Here is a link to the slide show.

Well done! I hate to admit I'm supposed to be working but had to stop everything to watch & listen.

Might have to go do it again...

I have been having a hard time getting stuff done when all I want to do is play with the new program.

I'm dreaming of the day when we can finally stay at VWL. It's one of the few DVC resorts we've never stayed at yet. We always stop by the resort though just to walk around because we love it! My kids love Whispering Canyon Cafe and it's a must do for every trip. Hopefully someday we can stay there!

Great slideshow Jen! I enjoyed watching it. DS is very excited to get there and he loved the pictures too.

Barb - thanks for adding me and for your help with this vacation.

horselover - Happy Anniversary to you and your DH as well!

wildernessDad - feel better and enjoy your trip!

Trish - have a great vacation if I don't make it back to the thread by then. We'll be there until the 14th.

DiznyDi - I wonder why ME was so busy? Makes me nervous as we arrive on Saturday.

Hi Everyone:

DVC Jen ~ Great slideshow and nicely done!! Thanks so much for sharing with us!

supersuperwendy ~ I agree with you...I would love to stay at the VWL! I love that resort!!! We plan on visiting WL during our vacation and absorb the beautiful surroundings.

Nicoal13 ~ Thank you very much for the vacation wishes. We are arriving at SSR on the 14th for one week and the second week we are off property (sniff). Exchange via. RCI didn't work out for the second week but I tried my best. I'm on vacation, I'm going to hug Mickey (my mission) and will enjoy every second of my vacation. Have a great time and enjoy!

DVC Jen - Wow, I love the slideshow! Esp the pics of Stan at the end

I haven't posted here in awhile but just wanted to send an update that we finally closed on our VWL contract. Now patiently waiting to see the points in our account . We started this process March 8th - it feels like forever. I know we're good to go, but I won't believe it til I see it!

Just got back from our first stay at Kidani and absolutely loved it. I am so happy that now I own points at both AKV and VWL. One of the things that pleasantly surprised me at Kidani was how well I was able to sleep. It was soooo quiet! Is it quiet at VWL? We stayed in 2008 at the Lodge (in a standard room, not the villas) and it was a bit noisy. All I could hear at night was toilets flushing! Please tell me the Villas are nice and quiet?!!

Stopher

Thanks for keeping us going

DVCJen

Love the slideshow...Like that you saved the moments with Stan and family til the end. He loved the Lodge and its guests

 

[twokats]

I agree it was a great slideshow.

Also a great start to this thread. . . good work stopher.

I had a job interview the other night, but I did not have a good feeling about it. The interview itself was good and they liked me, but it just did not feel right. I guess with my treatments coming up and my mom getting worse, I might just need to sit back and relax and pray something comes up in a couple of months.

Thanks to all for the pixie and moose dust for me and mom.

 

[horselover]

Oooooooo! A shiny new thread!

Love the new thread already! We're standing in line at the Magical Express. Have absolutely never seen it this crowded. Enjoy your day Groupies. I know we will. We're headed to the Lodge!

Jealous! Have a wonderful time Di & Dad!

horselover ~ Happy Belated Anniversary to you as well!

horselover - Happy Anniversary to you and your DH as well!

Thank you both!

Congratulations on your closing! I have always found the villas to be very quiet, but I always request an upper floor. Don't know if that helps the noise level or not.

Happy Friday groupies!

Update: despite the crowd level, we waited only 20 minutes for a ME bus. And an added bonus was that WL was the first drop-off. We met up with Maria, DH, and DD. Great to finally put a face to names! Now the bad news: there is no longer a fresh yogurt parfait bar! Itsbeen replaced with Mickey waffles. Parfaits are premade and in the cooler. Big bummer for me! Off to Animal Kingdom today. Enjoy your day Groupies!

Sounds like a good plan.

Tomorrow is DiznyzDad's birthday!!!

Give it up for DiznyzDad!!!!​

So, where are we going to have lunch??????

 

[Nicoal13]

Happy Birthday DiznyDad!!!

Quick question about the villas. Do they have an hdmi cable? I'm bringing my laptop and if there is an hdmi cable I don't need to pack ours to watch netflix on the tv. Thanks!

 

[I Book He Pays]

Hi Groupies:
TGIF!!!! Wishing all of you a fantastic weekend!

DizGirl20 ~ Welcome Home and congrats!!! Kidani looks like an amazing resort. Glad you had a great vacation.

twokats ~ If you aren't comfortable with the position you interviewed for, it might be good to wait. Right now you have a lot on your plate with you/mom so focus on that. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

DizneyDad ~ Have a great day and enjoy!

DiznyDi ~ Thanks for the update! Enjoy AK!!!

 

[wildernessDad]

Well, I have two weeks worth of horse pills (antibiotics) to take. (You'll love that, horselover.) I'm slowly feeling better. I should have two more pills in me before the plane takes off for CA.

I'll try to get good pics of our trip to share with my buddies here.

Ciao, all!
