One of my favorite balconies on property!!
yes, I think it was four rooms sharing it, but I never saw even lights on in those other rooms and the time that I spent outside which was a few and far between because we had on seasonably cold weather several of those nights, I never saw another single person out there.Wow! Did multiple rooms share it? Sorry you caught the flu. Hope you feel better!
Does anyone have the December resort activities guide?
Thank you!!Here’s a handy link to all of the resorts courtesy of Orlando Theme Park News: https://www.orlandoparksnews.com/p/recreational-calendars.html
Hope that helps.
Wow!
Are there other resorts that offer balconies like this? I'm sure many people would love this, but I'd personally try to avoid it. I always ask for an upper-floor room as first floor rooms make me feel like I need to keep the blinds shut at all times. I'd feel the same way with one of these rooms.
Edited to add: My husband would probably LOVE this balcony though.

It was very quiet. Even with the bus traffic and traffic down below, it was very relaxing to sit out on all by myself and drink a glass of wine before bed
I had you down for an anniversary trip in October. Did you change dates or is this another trip?
Quick question for those familiar with driving while staying at the Yacht club. When you do a google image of the Yacht Club there seems to be a tiny bit of parking directly in front of the Yacht club and then another lot across the street. Is the lot across the street where most self parking happens?
Also can you park in the parking area in front of the Beach Club if you are staying at the Yacht Club?
Maybe the Beach Club is more convenient for drivers?
Some parking was removed from the YC, when the Convention Center addition was recently built.I was wondering the same thing when we parked for our Ale & Compass ADR. We got a spot right by the convention center, but there didn't seem to be a ton of guest parking around compared to Beach Club. I suppose there's only so many rooms? (Looks like 630, vs. 576+282DVC for Beach Club)

We had to cancel the anniversary trip. I’ve been battling cancer all year and didn’t get done with treatments in time. We’re trying again here in December, this time as a whole family and as a reward for a long year for everyone. Only thing is, while I’m done with treatments and on the path to recovery, I’m still really weak. We’re planning on renting a wheelchair in the parks, hopefully that doesn’t ruin things, with them having to push me around. We have YC CL and are doing the CL FPs, and lots of good ADRs as I’ve been planning this one for a long time. Here’s to hoping it works out.

I hope you and your family have such a great time this month!! Enjoy each and every moment and may your recovery be quick and lasting.
I had to join boards to reply to you. Your post resonated so much with me. In 2012, we stayed Grand Floridian for my 40th birthday and ending chemo and radiation. (We actually cancelled a YC Platinum Plan stay to GF main building club in order to be more relaxing and easier on my body.) I was still wearing a scarf on my bald head and cried when Cinderella gave me my signed birthday card. I truly questioned if I would have my 41st birthday. We went back December 2012 after I finished herceptin. That time we took my parents for free dining since they helped so much during our rough 15 month stretch. It was glorious to celebrate and watch my parents watch my 7 year old. Both trips that year were good for my psyche and fairly relaxing as far as Disney trips go. I obsessed with the planning just like you have, and it was all worth it. I got a “Celebrate” button for both visits, and the CMs who asked the occasion were so lovely when I responded with ending cancer treatment.
5 years later and we are back for our 2nd YC Disney Holiday in 13 months. I truly wish for many more Disney trips for you and your family.
