Really just venting a little to the people who understand!!
We decided on a "last minute" trip with family this fall. By last minute I mean just barely less than 7 months. I knew we wouldn't find anything at BLT or Boardwalk the week of Halloween. And that's ok. But there has been NOTHING. Anywhere. We only barely managed to get the days we needed at Saratoga.
I've put in a couple of waitlists, but I'm not hopeful. And I check "just in case" every time I get on the computer. But I'm just frustrated and annoyed. When we bought 10 years ago we could manage a reservation with options on where to stay, even after 7 months. And we have been fortunate to stay at most of the resorts along the way. Don't get me wrong I am thankful we get to go at all. And Saratoga is fine. We've stayed there before and really enjoyed it. Just not feeling it this time around and frustrated to feel like there are no options unless we want to fork over the ridiculous sums of money (for our family budget) that we joined DVC to save.
We will still go. And we will still have a fantastic trip!! Lets be honest...the real problem is that we want a room with the murphy bed because my children are incapable of sharing a bed without nuclear war (11 year old bed hog!!)
Thanks for letting me vent a bit...
