My Aunt ordered one this afternoon.
Thank you for the confirmation. Do you know which location your aunt was at when she ordered her drink?

We are headed to BC next week. We have a garden/ woods view booked. I just spoke with a cast member to request a room at the BC near Epcot. Not a theme park view, just a room close to the International Gateway. She said that all garden/woods view rooms were close to Epcot so I did not need to add that to the reservation. Is this correct? We don't really have any other requests. Should I call back and word things differently?
I just pulled out my YC/BC map from our stay in December. IF I am reading it correctly the east end of the building looks closest to EPCOT. Maybe you could put that in your request. Again, it's a BIG "IF" I am reading the map correctly. Maybe someone with better knowledge can confirm.We are headed to BC next week. We have a garden/ woods view booked.

Thanks for confirming Dee. Being told to look east to Mexico would have really messed with this Oregon girls head! LolI learned that during my first stay at the Beach Club. We were there during a shuttle launch and I asked the greeter there where we could see it. Teena, who is now a dear friend, told us to go into EPCOT and look east, towards Mexico.
And we saw the shuttle, briefly, as it blasted off over the pyramid.
I LOVE your icons for each month! Cute and clever!Caught up!

I'm trying to convince my 74 year old mother who will be joining us for our 9 day stay to YC in late April that she may need an ECV Scooter.
She is slowly starting to swallow her pride and accept I may be right. We are beginning now to explore if we should rent one right at the parks themselves, only to be used within parks, or if we should rent from an outside vendor so that she can have access for use at the YC resort as well.
Where are ECV's typically stored overnight?
Do they easily fit in non-handicapped rooms?
Are they allowed to be stored in hallways?
Are they easy to put on and off of boat transportation?
Any input is appreciated!

Hi there! quick question... Thinking of possibly switching our December trip at the WL to the BC in May... We would book standard view. My question is, we are traveling with another family and would like connecting rooms. Are there standard view rooms with connecting doors? I looked at the detailed room map of the resort and I think I can tell which ones have connecting rooms. Can anyone confirm that for instance rooms 3709-3711 would be connecting rooms according to the map? Thanks!
Has anyone ever used the Shipshape Salon with kids? It says they have "Storybook Styles" that include hair, makeup, and nails to transform them into classic Disney characters. They also offer kid manicures and pedicures. Just looking for something "extra" for my girls this trip. They will be 10 and 8 this trip and since we are staying at BC, this would be very convenient if it is worth the cost. TIA!
You need to bring the ECV into your room at night to charge it. It shouldn’t be left in the hallways.I'm trying to convince my 74 year old mother who will be joining us for our 9 day stay to YC in late April that she may need an ECV Scooter.

I would rent from an offsite company, from what I read on this forum is it’s a lot cheaper than renting at the parks, and the scooters are smaller.I'm trying to convince my 74 year old mother who will be joining us for our 9 day stay to YC in late April that she may need an ECV Scooter.

I know this isn't the question you asked, but I wanted to suggest that renting a wheelchair for your mom might be a good option. My DD and I did that for my mom a couple of years ago and found it was much easier to manage and maneuver than the ECV. Mom is on the smaller side, so it wasn't hard on DD and me from a physical standpoint. As another poster noted, it gets stressful trying to stop and go and watch out for others. We wanted to relieve her of that stress and it worked well. Getting the wheelchair from an off site service was perfect for our situation.
