Staying at Jambo House 7/24 -8/1 and so excited. Renting DVC points for a standard studio. Can anybody tell me which stop (generally) AKL is from MCO? I know it can vary some but I am hearing it is the 3rd stop after CSR and POP? Trying to plan the arrival day and ADR's.

AKL has never been first when I’ve ridden DME, in fact it’s always been last for me. Usually the bus stops at some combination of the Allstars/POP/AOA then CSR. Sometimes CBR. One particularly memorable DME ride we stopped at every budget resort, CSR and CBR so we were the 7th stop and the couple going to Kidani was the 8th. After that ride I don’t make any firm plans based on DME arrival estimates.
These days when I hop on DME I always wonder will this be the ride where AKL is first like some lucky people have experienced, so far it’s not happened for me.

It has never happened for me either in over 15 trips on ME to AKL. Although now, I am just going to be thankful that we have always been either the 3rd or 4th stop, and not the 7th or 8th, yikes!

In Nov this past year we were 2nd but it only stopped at Coranado and then AKL so 2nd but last
 
I did the Wanyama Safari in September 2016, and I loved it! There were only 6 of us on my safari.

Before the safari, we were in a private room in Jiko, where they served us Roobios tea, ice water, raisin scones (excellent), chocolate cups with coffee mousse (divine), olive bread with harissa, raita, and mango chutney; and beef sausage (very tasty).

Dinner after the safari was phenomenal. We started with an African sunrise cocktail, then 3 types of bread and 4 dipping sauces, then a trio of Boma salad and a veggie spring roll and a bison spring roll. That was served with a white wine, from The Game Preserve. Then the main course was served family-style - the most tender short rib, halibut with this buttery sauce, breaded chicken (my least favorite), roasted veggies (yummy), Mac and cheese (so good), faro (just okay). Red wine was served with dinner - Cab Sav of The Game Preserve - it was good. Dessert trio: strawberry shortcake, chocolate mousse, and a buttery cake soaked in rum. And a sweet dessert wine. We were given a little gift bag at the end with chocolate and a Wanyama Safari pin.
Is it a big step on to the vehicle?
 
Can anyone tell me if there is a lounge/bar with tv’s? Hub wants to watch the Super Bowl and would rather not be alone in the room or crammed in ESPN with all those people during flu season.
 
Yes there is! Victoria Falls Lounge on the 2nd floor (it overlooks Boma). I know for sure there's a TV right at the bar, because I sat there one Saturday night and watched a college football game.
