HAHAHA Northwest Indiana makes sense! I just kept thinking....something didn't make sense cuz North WI is not near Chicago burbs...lol....but NW Indiana sure is Those darn acronyms can get so confusing when they have multiple meanings. No offense, but I hate traveling through Indiana in snow and ice because the road conditions, in my experience, were just awful. As soon as we would cross the line into IL the roads were instantly better. What's up with that? Is it my bad luck?
LOL.....yes those acronyms can sometimes be confusing . No offense taken.......especially since I know exactly what you mean . I do agree.....IL roads seem to be much better in the winter.
Just left GFV this morning, after years of wanting to stay at the GF we were not disappointed. We had a 6th floor deluxe studio room 1605 and it was amazing! Had a view of the entrance fountain, monorail and pool to the right.
Glad you had a great time and loved the GF . I've only seen pics of the villas, but they look amazing!!!
I love the Grand! Can't wait to check in next month.
You will be checking into the GF before you know it .
We sure did...I miss the GF already.
It's hard not to miss the GF.....it's such a beautiful, relaxing place .
Good morning, GF pals...I could have been posting a TR at 5 this morning, I woke so early!
We had a wonderful stay last week, and it started just driving up to the GF entrance and seeing the look of the new villas blending in seamlessly with the Grand itself.
Sounds like you had an amazing trip and the GF didn't disappoint . How nice that you were given SL access, as well as getting up to RPC and touring some suites .
Woke up to SNOW this morning!!! Where is my great GF view
Friday we arrived via ME at 3pm. We were met right at the door of our bus quite enthusiastically. "Come on, I am going to escort you right to your room"!!!
Glad you had a great trip and loved RPC.....it really is hard to beat .
Our temps dropped drastically late yesterday, and were supposed to be in the low 20s overnight, upper 30s today. Then, back to 50s for the rest of the week - I hope!
How much snow did you get?
We were in the low 30s today, with that to be the going temp over the next few days . Everything was covered pretty good this morning, but we didn't get 6" (thank goodness )....but for some reason I'm thinking we are in for a not-so-mild winter .
Good morning fellow GF fans!
MickeyNut Whats new and exciting my friend?? Any new trip plans..Inquiring mind here...
Hi Blue . No changes have been made yet, but I am contemplating one .
i got an email today that magical vacations travel is doing their labor day promo again. i emailed to get pricing and was told that there are no GF CL rooms available with the promo. what a bummer!
I got the same email. Sorry GF CL isn't available .

I loved this skyline of GF from boat!
Great pics....thanks for sharing .
In your time mixing with the Mouse and his minions, was there word on start date for the room renovations?
I was wondering this myself .
And, to answer your question about the room renos, Followthatmouse, a guy came into our room in Boca to measure the drapes or sliders, and said that the concierge rooms would be last; and I gathered from what he said that they would not begin working on RPC and SL until later in the spring. When I told him we planned to return in early May, he said that buildings 7,8 and 9 (I think) would be done by then. And one of the CMs in the SL lounge said they had not been told when SL would be closed yet.
Thanks for this info, grannyminnie .
Aaaaaargh! We are booked for RPC in May. Oh, well! I'm sure we can make the most of anything at the GF.
You will love it......RPC will be amazing with or without a refurbed room .
