Thanks for the welcome everyone. It was a 2 year process but I'm really glad we finally made the plunge.

We got a February use year which wasn't exactly what I was looking for but it will work out.

We just joined too while on the Fantasy! We stuck with the new home resort of AKL and look forward to staying in the future. I didn't realize you could buy into the "sold out" resorts or I would have been inclined to go with BC too.

It might not be too late to inquire about changing that if you just signed up last week. Either way, it's very exciting isn't it!

COngratulations! Welcome home. Be glad, it took DW 15 years to get me to buy. I'm slow. Started thinking about it in 1992 and bought in 2007. Best thing we've ever bought.
You'll love the decision.

Welcome home!!! We found that the incentives on DCL were quite good, and almost added on points last time.

Best wishes for many happy WDW trips January is a great time to visit too!
