Fun report so far. Just getting back into Disney stuff again (been crazy busy since our trip in November (which is why there was no TR)). When are you there in August?

We bought at Saratoga in 2010 for around $79/point. Those were crazy days. Our first DVC trip we ended up getting 4 out of our 8 days at AKL Concierge level. We haven't had a problem getting other resorts at the 7 month mark now, but I guess it depends where you want to stay (I seem to always...

Good to know. That why I put the proviso "if the rumors are true".

Crazy to think, if the rumors are true, that Siemens offered Disney a new fleet of monorail trains to extend their sponsorship of Spaceship Earth, and were turned down...

I believe they answered that question with the boxed lunches they were charging $13 for.....

We realized something on our last trip...Given the ever-increasing cost of eating on property, we would actually save money by renting a car and eating offsite, as opposed to eating on site (and that was with the 20% discount). We had already reduced the number of table service meals we were...

It's a nickname given by @WDW1974 for Bob Iger, in reference to the fact that he started his career as a local weather man. brief story here: https://www.mnn.com/lifestyle/arts-culture/photos/famous-people-who-used-to-be-weather-forecasters/the-local-weather

Completely agree. The eclipse was like a non-event. We went back to our room to watch it too("watch it"...), and we're greatly disappointed. I actually napped through it ("napped"), but Tammy and Steph stayed up and said they couldn't tell when it supposedly started or finished.

True story... Back when they had the Chronicles of Narnia thing going on at HS (which was then replaced by the Jack Sparrow thing), I accidentally took a flash picture. Talk about looking like a total jerk. We had walked into the "museum" type area where there were props, etc, and they had a...

Thank you.

That's what I was going for....not sure why I was going for that, but that's what I was going for.

You should have loads of room. The villas are very spacious. You may be a bit tight on storage space but we didn't find it that bad (we had 4 suitcases, and about 8 other carryon size bags (purse, laptop bag, etc)). Having two showers is a huge plus too. Hope you enjoy your trip.

Oops. My bad. I knew it was "Great", not sure where "Grand" came from. I'll leave it in so this post makes sense. You're welcome.

Last day continued We enjoyed our last monorail ride to the MK, and were soon through the “turnstiles” we took one last picture at the front of the park before heading in. It was kind of a damp-ish night tonight, so the pictures were all a bit misty. The kids took off to do their own...

Last day continued - Chef Art Smith's We grabbed a bus to Saratoga, and then walked over to Disney Springs. After a good walk, we were there. We checked in and were quickly seated. We were really looking forward to eating here. We looked through the menus, and made our decisions. Tammy...

Last day continued After Dinosaur we decided we wanted to see Nemo so we headed over that way. Liam noticed that the line for Primeval Whirl was short, so I went on that with him, and then we met up with Tammy and Steph to see Nemo after that. '' Good show. After that we were going...

Last day continued - I forgot to mention that on the way to Asia we stopped for a picture with Russel Next up was Everest. Tammy decided not to ride this time, so the kids and I were on our own. We did single rider the first time since our FP window wasn't open. Taking an important...
