    I’ve always found that 1BR’s are the last to book out at most resorts. I’ve never had an issue getting one. January should be easiest and maybe a bit harder getting into late February. All those folks from New Orleans with kids come to the world during Mardi Gras. The 1BR’s at BLT & Kidani...

    An early Happy Easter to all! Returned from WDW on Monday night at 11:45 PM to pouring rain (which Minneapolis needed). Turned out it snowed on Sunday, then turned to rain late Monday, and then turned cold by Tuesday morning into snowfall that surpassed the entire winter season in one day (we...

    Only 17 years left? ☹️. I was just telling myself it was 19 earlier today…clearly my math skills are degrading with age…🤣. But I agree, I could sell for more than I bought in for. Crazy! 250/point for new contracts from Disney?🤮🤮

    I find it odd they are a problem. LED lights dont need to be “daylight” . Lower lumens with a soft white feel are what I use at home…maybe someone screwed up. Of course at home I can change color and intensity in some rooms as well by saying “Alexa, living room lights 50%”. Been doing that...

    Jimmy, very sorry to hear about your dad’s tough time! Aging parents watching siblings & friends pass on is brutal. Both my father & father-in-law are 90+ and have outlived most everyone they held dear. Just got done booking a split stay starting March 20th. 3 nights at OKW (2 BR) followed...

    Our 1st DVC stay was at Kidani in December. Because the contract was loaded when purchased this was the 1st of 3 trips planned in that 1st year of ownership. I had just been in Fort Myers over Thanksgiving saying goodbye to my mom who was in hospice with cancer. So, I remember telling her...

    Well, Sleepy, Granny, & Jimmy really did a spectacular job of explaining our love of Wilderness Lodge! I’ll just add a couple things. The theming of the feature pool is something easily missed. It starts IN the lobby as a spring bubbling up. Then you walk outside and follow the stream all...

    We’re spoiled with great water in MN, I can’t drink Florida water, it’s nasty. So, it’s bottled water or Starbucks for us….🤣🤣

    Final report on 1st trip to BLT. This is now our 2nd favorite resort. 2 baths in the 1BR was a big plus. Pool area and community room were very nice. I prefer staying in the MK area, so obviously another bonus. We avoided the scooters and powered through. Security clearance for EPCOT and...
