I know HEA has all the new projections, but if you really wanted to see the fireworks, but did not think you could last all night in MK, watching from the Gasprilla patio or boat dock could be a more "relaxing" option.
The deluxe king rooms on floor 2 are the whirlpool tubs vs the garden tub.
...I can almost smell it now....Ah.....turn down service.... I just love coming in to the room all tidy and restocked, low lighting, covers turned down with chocolates on the pillow...
Getting excited being under the 60 day mark now. ADRs completed. FPs all complete. Magicband choices made. Gardengrocer order submitted. Next item will be paying the travel agency for hotel and tix. Can someone remind me, when do they mail the magical express tags?
Almost time!!! ME tags generally come about a month before our trip....Glad all of your planning is done..hope that you were able to get all of your FPP!
I think I will be making a batch of that for the 4th! 
..I bet it will be just grand!What exactly is a garden tub? Is it an extra big bathtub?
There is only the one boat. It goes from GF to Poly to MK. The return trip from MK stops at GF first, then Poly. When we were at GF in December they had a boat taxi service. For $20 they would take your travel party, up to six people I think, to any resort on the lakes. We took it to Fort Wilderness and enjoyed the boat ride very much. I saw the water taxi listed on the activity schedule at the quiet pool. We really enjoyed our private ride.
They have buses to DHS and AK. You have to take two monorails to get to Epcot - the resort monorail to TTC then the Epcot monorail.
GF is certainly a relaxing restful place in the midst of all of the fun! I have a poster of that print..bought it long ago in Sandy Cove...really need to get it framed....
Certainly not for lack of checking that's for sure...lol...Hurry and get released CP packages....
) be able to squeeze in a quick visit to the GF next month......no ADRs...no FPP...just gonna wing it...............wish me luck...
I know right? I want the package secured already!!!Hello fellow GF fans!
So still no luck here with additional ADRs for our winter trip....
Good Luck!On a brighter note...I just might (will

Sounds delicious! Thanks for obtaining and sharing the recipe!
~For anyone going to be at the GF over the 4th...

ETA...Hey Trish!!
I thought so, but since I haven't stayed on the second floor, I decided to let one of you confirm it
!
That tub is wonderful for long soaks and bath bombs!
It gives you a lovely reason to spend time in Basin White. Also, it's one of the best things about those rooms ... Unless you have a wonky hip and have trouble getting in and out of tubs. My DM has that problem. So, it's 4422 and the smaller tub for us, now. But, the garden tub was nice once!
Really?? Why doesn't Disney realize how well these items would sell at all the resorts?? I wish they did have a Vinyard Vines GF shirt!! Of course, they'd probably stay sold out!
I have also seen Nike products with subtle Disney branding. I purchased a golf pullover from Commander Porter's.
We love that shop! A must do for our family lol. The men find something they NEED.
I am so grateful to you!!! Thank you SO much! Summer cocktail? Here I come!! And best part is it will remind me of the GF
Your best bet would be to take the boat from GF to Magic Kingdom (with intermediate stop at the Poly). At Magic Kingdom, you can take a boat to Fort Wilderness.
We did this is December. It was great! We had to go to the Concierge desk to make the reservation. The water taxi service cost $20. It is a one way trip. You can't arrange for a pickup.
Most, if not all, of the outer building garden view rooms should have a daybed with the exception of the lodge tower rooms (or whatever they are called now...lol) which are a separate booking category. These are the rooms in the bumped-out turret areas which have a small living room area. Even if you are lucky enough to be upgraded to one of these rooms upon check-in, the GF does have roll-a-way style beds that can be delivered to your room if needed. I would not waste a room request asking for a daybed.
