I was going to say that this these last few posts must be awkward for you as the only male here but then I remember the sashaying and fake eyelash knowledge and realised my mistake.

 

[orangecats2]

I'm more of a David Tennant and Pierce Brosnan man myself.
I don't even know where you get all these gif's and how you get them in here.

I feel so pretty!!!!



Oh, well. That man-card is now irretrievably lost.

Hey this is an equal opportunities PTR! So....here you go!

I think we're going to have to work out a schedule to share Pierce.

You mean this Pierce? Take the other two as well and the schedule might be easier!

Whoa...looks like I missed a lot around here too...I went back and caught up I think....and got to see a lot of awesome pics lol

Well we aim to please here!

I feel so pretty!!!!



Oh, well. That man-card is now irretrievably lost.

You're just one of the gang now!

 

[BibbitybobityLu]

So.

I might have to think of a new name for this PTR as EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED!!!!

You see this is what happens when I am still over a year away, have access to the internet and a boring day on my hands. I change all of our plans!

So as you know (or maybe you don't I distract a lot of you with my excessive gif addiction...)
the original plan was to do the following:

3 nights Grand Floridian
5 nights Animal Kingdom Lodge
5 nights Beach Club
5 nights Contemporary
10 nights Old Key West.

Well that was all fine and dandy....then I got distracted by the resort boards....and pretty hotel photos...and other people's TR (so really its all your fault...) and the next thing I knew I was pricing up another hotel...

Yeah I know....

Which hotel?

Errrrrrmmmmm......

This hotel:

The Poly!!

Now I know I said before that the Poly didn't appeal to me but hey, why on earth were you listening to me?? So again, this is your fault!

Now before this there was already going to be a change. While talking to DM about this trip I showed her photos of the Beach Club and the Yacht Club. At the start she preferred BC...but then she decided it was too like OKW (I didn't fully get it but hey ho...) and wasn't sure she wanted to stay there


BUT BEACHES AND CREAM?!?!?!

But then she looked over the photos again and decided she much preferred YC. Which I'm cool with!
So still staying at an ice cream----I mean an Epcot hotel!

So here is the new plan (still subject to change, cause I cannot make up my mind....)

5 nights Animal Kingdom Lodge (Club level cause it was only £40 more expensive )

2 nights Grand Floridian (Garden View cause Lagoon was WAY more expensive )
2 nights Polynesian Village Resort (Garden View cause its prudy )

3 nights Yacht Club (Garden View cause I don't want to see rooftops )

5 nights Contemporary Resort (Theme Park view...none negotiable of the trip )

11 nights Old Key West (1 Bedroom Villa...it just feels like home... )

Do you know the craziest part??

This actually worked out CHEAPER than our original plans! By like...A LOT!

Plus we get free dining at AKL, CR and OKW.

So! Now we are going to SIX hotels

But our dates are still the same.
So now I need a new PTR name as I no longer have a B and I'm now adding a P! ​

 

[orangecats2]

Yay for the Poly! And it being cheaper!

They just opened 2016 packages for us so of course I was looking at prices. I want to stay at POR Riverside but Carribean Beach is cheaper. How does that make sense? It used to be that the moderates were the same price. So weird. l want to do eight nights. However, we were talking with friends about going at the same time and they want to do a four night cruise with four nights at the Boardwalk. But that's only three full days at WDW!!! And I haven't been since 2012! I don't know if I can give up a week at the parks for a cruise? I've never been on a cruise before and while its appealing I need the parks!!!

Why is Pierce dancing? David Tennant is hot!

 

[KathyM2]

Wow...well I know "YOU" aren't crazy but...that is indeed a crazy amount of resort changes!! But as long as you don't mind moving around...it will be great to see all those different places!! I'm excited for you about the Poly...I think that will be an amazing place to stay because of the atmosphere and the convenience and of course the restaurants!!

Oy.


Wonderful.

What the what?!?

Must remind Lu to stay away from the 'puter.

So as you know (or maybe you don't I distract a lot of you with my excessive gif addiction...)

Oh, absolu..... squirrel!!!

The Poly!!

!!!

What she said!

BUT BEACHES AND CREAM?!?!?!

#1 on my Disney bucket list. Was last trip too... just no time.

Do you know the craziest part??

It gets crazier? How is this possible?

This actually worked out CHEAPER than our original plans! By like...A LOT!

Silver lining!
Wait... There was no cloud.... Whatever!

So! Now we are going to SIX hotels

I could not/would not do that... but I understand those who do.
So Woot! for you!
