Hopefully they are going on Tuesday as that's when the boat leaves I forgot they were going, how cool would that have been if they were on our same cruise!
They do, just plain odd and always felt like it added 5-10 minutes to the trip to go there.
I'm not sure what my ideal next family trip is, it'd probably be 5 day WDW, 3 US simply b/c to move for 2 nights makes me crabby. If we moved. More likely it will be a 7-8 day WDW without moving and we will be fighting crowds at US, that is, if we go with my side of the family.
Plans are very much up in the air at present but more on that later.
I know, spoiled rotten for sure and hard to go back to anything less! Hard to actually compare as really they all were great.
You thought of everything!!!!!! Great recap and review! That could be really helpful for someone. But I have to stay that I miss the WL and really want to stay there soon. I didn't experience the long hotel corridors fortunately. I didn't notice the linens, but maybe the DVC linens are all the same. Who knows!
Thanks again for the great review!
Wow! Talk about thorough! Nice job Cynthia. I'll have to come back and re-read this every so often as my planning progresses.
What a great recap Cynthia.
You gave me some things to think about and great insight to things I had no idea existed.
Thank You
Terrific recap on teh resorts and the dining, Cynthia.
We've been iffy on Yacht Club, but you've given us reason to reconsider.
And, as you know, we are doing Raglan Road in six weeks and we can't wait.
Oops! I keep getting Tues and Weds mixed up all weekend I have a party to do Tues, hope I don't forget and try to do it Wed instead!
We leave for Phoenix on Thurs and Jim's DB may be coming to stay Tues and Wed for a business trip and then fly with us on thurs - it is him we are going to visit - I'm kind of in limbo I guess! (does that sound like a plausible excuse?)
great recap thanks for taking the time to list it all.
Excellent review C!
Thanks for the breakdown!
Terrific summary Cynthia !!! I am sooo glad to hear your approval of Raglan Road !! It is definately one of my all time favorites !! I agree with TE it is great but I could scip it however , others I travel with LOVE it !!! So it stays on the list!!
Thanks for delurking and ! It was am amazing tripLongtime lurker, but I just had to make an appearance to tell you that I DEVOURED your trip report over the past few days. What an amazing trip you had! And thanks so much for your thoughtful insights and reviews....very helpful in planning my own (very far in the future) WDW vacation.
I'm heading over to your Alaskan cruise PTR to check that out and I'm sure I'll be adding cruising to my list of future vacation ideas too. Especially since the Wonder will leave from Seattle next year, right in my own back yard!
Thanks again for the wonderful report and enjoy your upcoming cruise!

What a great review. Thanks for sharing it. I have to say that I totally agree with you on the bed linens, as well as buffets. I really prefer the former and have discovered that I seriously dislike the latter. YC is beautiful and that lobby is beautiful. But you have given me something to think about with your WL review. Hadn't considered it, but maybe I might now.
Excellent reviews, Cynthia! I forgot how long your trip actually was until you laid it out like that. Its interesting, I find that people who live out west tend to be possibly not as wowed by the Wilderness Lodge ambience - too much like home I guess. I also have some southern friends who have no desire to stay at Port Orleans, while it is one of MY favorites. I didn't really get it - but then I realized that if they (heaven forbid) created a midwesterned themed resort, I would have absolutely no desire to stay there! Actually, even the thought of that makes me laugh. I can't even imagine how you'd build a theme around that!
