Hello

[Tillyfloss]

Long time lurker!
I enjoy reading the forum, I don’t always agree but then it would be a boring life if we always agreed!
Been travelling to Florida for around 30 years, took my kids now take my grandson too (still taking the kids! )
DVC since it started, OKW was the only option then and still love it!
Still finding out new things and picking up tips.
Looking forward to participating!

Hi and welcome

Helloo nice to 'meet' you Tillyfloss.
Where do you own DVC? We bought in to Animal Kingdom earlier this year.

[Tillyfloss]

Thank you - it’s nice to be here.
We own at OKW. We bought in at the start of DVC.
I love all the new resorts but have not really been tempted to add. The poor availability winds me up - I’m not a happy planner and the spontaneity seems to have gone!
Think if I was to add it would be AKL. Love to stay there.

[SnowWhite]

Oooops sorry I didn't read your original post properly
We loved AK Lodge from first glance so it was no contest for us really lol
Why not make a plan to stay there for a couple of nights on your next trip... I don't see how anyone could not love being there

No availability for studio or 1br for October ! May waitlist depending on what pops up elsewhere.
Got a trip for next July/ August will go for OKW then for part of it.
When is your next trip?

See more...

I hope you manage to get a reservation next time
We go back in January but only for a couple of days deducted from our previously booked holiday - we'll be at Anna Maria Island from end of Dec to 19th January but decided it's silly to be in Florida and not to have at least a few days at Disney; So we'll just leave AMI early to get our 'fix' lol
We're then only a short drive away from MCO for our flights home on the Sunday.
We'll be back later in the year with our son, daughter in law and two grandchildren to AKL for a fortnight. That's dependant on the kiddies October half term dates. Fingers crossed

[Tillyfloss]

That sounds just the thing for January!
Yes you think you’re done with planning around school holidays and then grandchildren come along!

[SnowWhite]

hehe yes they do... but they bring so much joy into our lives that a little bump in the planning arrangements is soooo worth it
