Thanks, Jimmy. I think that this rumor may have some merit for one reason only...because they are selling the FW Cabins right now. Disney does a great job of giving the DVC guides the selling points for each resort, and an open trail is an inexpensive thing to accomplish. It allows the...

Kathy...you know that we all are waiting to hear which room they gave you this time? Hopefully I'm not bringing up a sore topic! :crazy2:

The timing of the trip tips the favor to BRV, in my opinion. Yes, you can still visit Wilderness Lodge if you stay at the Polynesian, but staying at BRV and being immersed in that Christmas atmosphere is just the best option for my family. Holiday theming at the Poly was always a little...

Corinne...BCV sounds like a great location for your trip. Close to EPCOT and Flower & Garden Festival. And easy access to the sky lift to get you over to DHS. I always have liked BWV for its easy walking access to two parks. But I think with the sky lift, BCV may have passed it in location...

Jimmy...thanks for sharing your pictures so freely and often. Looks like you've had some good weather and the crowds are getting better the further you get from Easter. That view of the fireworks show from the boat on the lake was really nice.

Jimmy…thanks for the on-site updates. Sounds like you guys are having another great trip. And I’m never surprised when you experience pixie dust moments at WDW since you bring it with you every time. Enjoy the rest of your stay!

Clara…we are all excited to hear your news! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Happy Easter to all !!! .

Ron...glad you had a good trip. Yes, the OKW 1BR and 2BR set ups are amazing in how large the villas are. It didn't take Disney long to figure out that they didn't have to have that big of a villa in order to sell DVC points! Not only did the early buyers of DVC get the low price per point...

Sleepy...nice callback on those days almost 18 years ago. At that time (2006) I had been on the DISBoards for five years but I still wasn't comfortable with giving vacation details publicly much less showing my ugly mug in a picture! So I did have a vacation planned for 2007 but wasn't...

Technically the contracts don’t expire until early in 2042, but I think of them really expiring 12/31/2041 since I have no idea how Disney will handle all the points that have to be used those last couple of years. One tip I read that makes a ton of sense is to make sure you are in a borrowing...

And I look at my age and the expiration of VWL contracts and I'm amazed at how much value the points have with only 17 years of use left in them! At this point, I could still sell my contracts and more than recover my investment cost. But I'm good with riding the contracts out until they...

We have several photos of those "atrium" rooms posted on this thread, but they aren't necessarily easy to find. Here is a link to a couple of posts with several photos of one of those villas: Photos of 2BR Atrium Villa We have stayed in these villas a couple of times. They are very...

We just booked our December 6 - 12 at VWL. We are excited to bring for the first time a couple who are not part of our family. These good friends of ours haven't been to WDW in over 20 years. And they have never been during the Christmas season. We are jazzed to show them all the changes as...

Jimmy...well Tammy and the kids know how to shop for you! That's an awesome gift. Have you figured out the place of honor you want to put this in your home? Or are you going to hide it in your workshop and hog it to yourself! 😃

Kat...hope you are recovered or well on your way to feeling 100%. Sounds like you had a nice trip with a balance of land and sea. Thanks for sharing your impressions of DLH and Aulani.

Here's wishing all Groupies a Christmas season full of peace, happiness, and Moose Dust!

The lake side rooms are the odd numbered rooms. But the trees they planted when they built the cabins a few years ago are really growing quickly. So "facing the lake" does not necessarily mean a "view of the lake". We recently stayed on the lake side on the third floor and couldn't really see...

I've really only seen them around in the lobby when the Christmas tree is up. Other than the holiday season, I don't recall a photopass photographer on the WL campus.

Happy Thanksgiving Groupies!!!
