It's going to be quite a long time until we go again. I feel like I am beginning a trip reading right along with you! Thanks!

Great start! I can't wait for the food porn!!

Hi Alan,

It's been a while since I chimed in but letting you we're still along for the ride. As, for the drive, thank goodness for portable DVD's and Mp3 players (with headphones) for long trips. Keeping the kids entertained is the hardest thing to do. I too, get to control the radio all the way. I love my Sirius radio!

I'm am SO hoping to stay at CSR on the next trip. You pics remind me why...it is so beautiful and looks wonderfully relaxing. I can't wait for more!! Question: does CSR have their own resort mugs? I have only seen the generic ones.

Hijacking to answer, yes, they have their own mugs.

Hi Alan,
I'm so glad I found your new TR.

We stayed at CSR in December, in building 3, and we all loved it. Just seeing your pics and reading so far make me want to go back! Hopefully next year.

Can't wait to read more....

love the updates! Colorado Springs looks like an amazing resort!I definately want to try it out one day! Glad you got a refurbished room too

NWOhioAngela · 05-28-2009, 11:14 AM

I hope you're happy Team Renfroe. You made me drink the Coronado Kool-Aid. We just switched over there. So excited!

Hi Alan,

Loving your trip report. We were also at Disney the same time we had stayed at Pop Century. We had ran into Rosie a few times and also had a meet with her on the Wednesday at Pop. I agree with you with regards to the rain. It did not stop us from doing anything. We just put on our Ponchos and off we went. We had done more this trip then last year as the lines were not not as long except for Soaring which was a 80 minute wait, which gave us time for our feet to dry out a bit. Looking forward to reading and seeing more of your family's pics.

Thanks friendly Disers! Interesting...do any other resorts have their own? (like I said, I've only seen the 1 desgin this year) I think it's cool to have different ones!

karajeboo · 05-28-2009, 01:01 PM

So the casitas are out the back door to the left, right? No, left! Yeah, right. Anywho, here I am cracking myself up laying who's on first... all alone....

When we were there in November, we were in I think the casitas, out the back door to the left,right? No!!! Not again! And the rooms were not redone yet. Then in March we were in the cabanas, I think. Out the back door to the right..... Those were done. Just trying to clarify.

Love CSR!!!!!!

Finally, I am reading while you are writing! This week I've read your first trip report and your pre-trip report and I kept finding myself wanting to reply and then reminding myself that what I was reading was a year old so you probably didn't need my thoughts

I am so glad to be caught up!

They used to "back in the day" but now they are the same for all of the other resorts :-(
