I don't see how it draws anyone away from the Epcot Resorts.[/QOUTE].
? Read these boards and all you see is BC fixation, 90% due to SAB. Translation: a huge % of the DVCers who don't own at BC or BWV who are looking to stay in the Epcot area inevitably swarm to BC- which is why it always feels so crammed over there, with a 25+ minute wait for B- ice cream in the summer. We over at BWV don't miss that or the crowds.
Oh, please....food at the Boardwalk blows BC away. I don't see most people using LL for anything other than drinks. Not surprising, given we have Big River (best beer in the whole area, and also some great beef), a fun place to watch a game while eating (ESPN), incredible seafood (the Flying Fish), a wonderful trip to Europe and parts of the mid east in the form of Spoodles (which by the way offers one of the best breakfasts at WDW, it's the "sleeper" of early dining at Disney World) and - if you want a nice snack -- one of the best bakeries on property, which also delivers nice ice cream and candy.
Across the lake? Two slow service coffee shops, an overpriced so-so steak house and a cute but ridiculously overloaded walk up (when Disney appended BCV -- and thousands of additional guests -- to the back of an existing resort, they didn't add any dining capacity. Dumb, dumb, dumb...)
But ignore me please - and keep promoting the BC/SAB!!!!
