    GF SPA

    Correct, no discount. They did the 'add-on service' (aromatherapy I think) for 'free' which would have typically been included in the massages I've booked in the past anyway. It was a very different experience post-covid. Remember when we got 40% off that one summer? I literally went just for...

    GF/MK Walkway Questions

    I don't know, but I received that same email and my VGF reservation isn't until September. Hoping it doesn't take that long!

    How can I prevent Member Services from merging two reservations?

    I have too. I was not happy, as I was planning on modifying one for another resort at 7 months. MS couldn't 'unmerge' when I called - I just had to drop the days and cross my fingers.

    Chapek out - Iger back

    He got Chapeck-ed! Much like so many of our families favorite Disney related things. 'XYZ-got chapeck-ed' was a phrase said multiple times on our last trip 2 weeks ago. Will be glad to have to not have to say that any longer!!!

    Gutted all over again about losing Josh easyWDW

    It was an annual tradition for my husband and I to prepare for food and wine with Josh's blog. We haven't been since 2019 due to covid, but 'felt like' we were there when reading. We are heading back this November, and it's just not the same... I'm still so sad for his family and the whole...

    Boulder Ridge vs Copper Creek: Quieter rooms?

    My loudest stay was in a lock-off studio at SSR. The guests checking into the 1 BR didn't get in until well after midnight, complete with slamming doors/drawers, luggage, screaming children and very loud voices. Didn't help that I had to be up super early to catch a flight that next am to head...

    Guardians - Cosmic Rewind

    Thanks for the warning! I also can't do spinning rides, and the worst are the spinning rides that incorporate screens (I'm looking at you harry potter). I take a loading dose of meclizine (bonine) the day prior to trip, then daily dose (in AM) when traveling. That helps when cruising too!

    Polyday Inn Footprint

    I love that relatively quiet piece of beach. It's one of my favorite fireworks viewing spots, but has some nice swing/benches and is super relaxed. Do we know when construction is starting?

    DVC must stop rentals.....

    So what about the owners of guaranteed week resorts? I happen to own a December week in a studio at CCV that I paid a premium (via extra points) to purchase. I feel that I should be allowed to rent the reservation if I chose not to go, or chose not to re-convert to points if I do not plan on...

    EasyWDW / notfrosty Josh / obituary

    Oh that's so incredibly sad. Josh's blog was my 'gateway' to the online disney stuff. He was one of a kind.

    Driving the PCH - looking for suggestions on must dos

    We made a mini-version of this trip southbound this summer. Absolutely stunning. We started in San Francisco, then drove PCH to Monterrey (stayed there overnight), more PCH (Big Sur bridge is back open) with stops along the way for scenery, seals (OMG so cute), and quick stop in Cambria for...

    BWV - remote work

    My husband often has work/meetings he can't miss, so he has his own hotspot. The wifi in the rooms is inconsistent.

    Robes in studios?

    Had robes in VGF and CCV (cabin). Did not have robes in VGC this summer. No robes anywhere else.

    Best purchase when your husband is all about saving money!

    If I was solely looking for 1 bedrooms, I'd be looking at AKV and BLT. I own at neither, but have stayed at both in 1BR and that extra bath is lovely. Actually, it has gotten to the point where I will book a 2 BR when my teenage daughter is joining us so she will have her own bathroom (or...

    Should I just "Go with it?"

    Were you standing under the vent and hit by the roach? You may have been Florida'd. I would let the front desk know so they can make sure pest control visits your unit/general area. I still remember when I was a kid (in the lovely 80's) staying at GF with my grandparents when a giant spider...

    Title Company/POA Contract

    Who is paying the closing costs? I would think that party could choose the title company.
