    All about the Autotrain

    HAHA, I do the some of the same things, wipes, pillows/blankets, and I take a shower. We are going again in May, I know the service isnt the same, and the delays(which aren't entirely Amtraks fault).

    What DVC Property is Least Likely to Get You in By 4PM?

    I have had rooms ready when I got to BLT around noon during Christmas time December 22ndish, even with my quirky high floor even numbered room request. Its luck of the draw with many factors involved, guest turnover, staff sickouts, what type of room, and just being right time right place.

    Blizzard Beach reopening any time soon?

    I think Blizzard Beach is being rethemed. I heard something about it being reimagined as a prison breakout type theming. The slides as ways to escape the prison and such.

    Going from Boulder Ridge to Bay Lake

    UGH,, really.. We loved taking those little boats back and forth, and watching them from balcony. Trails end and Whispering Canyon two of my favorites. Do they still do the Pirate cruises? You could hear them from balcony also.

    BLT first timer (what do you love?)

    Oh wait I believe the walk way is on the 4th floor in Contemporary and 5th floor in BLT, never really thought about it. People might want 5th floor to not have to ride elevators?

    BLT vs CCV

    Thats a tough one. Take away walking to MK and extra bathroom BLT wins by a little bit(for me). BLT for the views and the monorail for easy access to 2 other resorts and their restaurants without much effort.. CCV the resort is the best themed in all of WDW I think. CCV has better pools...

    BLT first timer (what do you love?)

    I know I am late to the party, you all nailed it. For me, hearing the train from my balcony or watching the electrical water pageant are my favorites.

    Rank the DVC Resorts

    There is 5 bus stops, Grandstand, Carousel/Paddock, Paddock, Congress Park, and Springs, in that order, the buses at busy time seem to fill up by Congress Park, leaving standing room at best.

    Totally Objective and Scientific Poll: Which is better - monorail or skyliner?

    I voted Monorail I am a BLT person. Both are great though, took a spin on Skyliner for no reason to check it out. Maybe its in another post, but speaking of Monorail, any word on the new trains?
