What a great last day.

[home4us123]

Sounds like a great trip. Sorry Epcot was so busy your last day. Can't wait for the last update

[B.M.]

Great time at MK! The last info I read on the new get food before you sit plan sounded good, but I am a little surprised to hear that they have 8 CM's for that position at just one eatery.... hmmmmm..... I guess there still perfecting it..... Did you all three wait in the food line? That is my biggest concern with this is that assuming the food lines are still long, you have tired, hungry kids having to wait in line with you instead of winding down at the table.......... I do see the logic, but am anxious to see it in action myself....

I'm not sure how they are going to do this in the future. But when we were there, Renee and Bradley were with me until they knew we ordered food and I was waiting in line to pick it up. Then the CMs that were closest let them get a table while I waited for the food.

Ok, so the vacation has come to an end... But thank you to all of you who read my ramblings!

Thoughts on our room: Room 143 of BCV. Nice room overall. Was on the 1st floor with a patio. Wish I could have walked out from the patio but there are plants there and no walkway. Bradley loved the pull out couch. The bathroom was nice, though the toilet wasn't in perfect shape. The caulking around the base was cracked/broken, so when you sat down the whole toilet would bounce a little. Also, we had to get used to reusing towels so often, it went fine but sometimes we would have to reuse damp towels until they brought in new ones on thursday.

Beach Club resort: Very friendly, relaxed overall feel to it. All of the CMs we encountered were the best we had ever dealt with. Location to Epcot was awesome. This is our new favorite place. Can't say enough good about it.

First time using DVC: There is a certain camaraderie involved with DVC. It was really cool to be a part of. Just about everyone there was friendly, saying hello and chatting with us.

Beach Club buses: Never had a long wait for a bus, maybe 10 minutes tops. Worst bus ride is to DTD where it seems like they make 5 stops along the way.

MNSSHP: Would recommend this to everyone, tons of fun.

F&WF: More for couples and single people. Not really kid friendly. But the food was good and interesting to try. We noticed alot of drinking and kind of rude behavior. Very busy. Not something we must do again.

Best Meal: Wolfgang Puck Express

Worst Meal: Rosie's All American/Toluca Turkey Legs

Best 3D Show/Ride: Mickey's Philharmagic

Sounds great!! I loved reading this b/c we are staying at BC in less than 2 mos. I am so happy that we chose to stay here. From your report, I think we will drive to DTD the night we go! We will be driving down. And eating at Beaches and Cream too.

Great TR! And I'm with you on El Rio de Tiempo!

Edited to add: We are staying at BC on our next trip and also trying to purchase a BCV resale contract, so I'm pleased to hear you had such a good experience there!

what is figment ride?
how do you go about purchasing a resale for dvc? what is a roundaobut price? and what are the benefits of doing so? Or is that for another thread?

[Griffin]

The figment ride is, Journey into your Imagination with Figment. It's in the Imagination Pavillion. A purple dragon along with Dr Nigel Channing takes you on a tour through their labs:

Journey Into Your Imagination Pavilion - Epcot

DVC Resales can be look at through this company, they do range in price, but this should give you an idea:
