We stayed in the Casitias back in '03 - pre-remodel. The rooms look wonderful now!! It seemed like quite a walk to the main building, but we were right by the bus stop. I didn't mind having a view of the parking lot to be able to have good bus stop location. AHHHH, to be kidless at Disney!!
Yeah, I really don't care what my view is - if we had a balcony it would be different, but we don't sit in our room and stare out the window anyway, so it really doesn't matter to me what kind of room view we have. Convenience to a bus stop and a place to refill my mug is most important to me.
Being at Disney without kids is going to make for a very different experience that's for sure!
Sounds like a great first day! Very relaxing and "adult" oriented.
It's going to be a margarita filled week for you!
Yep, I see many cocktails in my future for that week! On my list is also the Lost on Safari @ AK and a Grey Goose Slush @ Epcot!
That sounds like a great first day! You guys are going to have so much fun!
I'm looking forward to it! I hope the weather cooperates with my first day plans, because I haven't made a back up.......
How many times do you think you will look up from your book when you hear "Mom, watch this!" only to smile, take a swig of your margarita and return to your book
Love your arrival day plans!
I'm sure that will happen a few times! When it does I'm hoping to be able to squelch the guilty feeling with more alcohol
Yep, pretty sure that is the PERFECT way to start your vacation -- a little reading time, a little pool time, a not-so-little margarita time, and dinner at Jiko. That's exactly how I would want to start a trip, too!
Take a cab -- think how much easier it would be than taking a bus to Animal Kingdom and then taking a bus to AKL. Since CSR and AKL are actually pretty close together, it shouldn't cost much at all.
I sure hope day one pans out as planned - right now it seems too perfect for words
About the cab - I'm with ya, It will just take so much more time to wait for a park bus, then wait for another bus to AKL. We took a cab a few times during this last trip and it was usually between $10-$15 with tip, not bad at all considering how much time we saved.
This will be very easy to get used to, so just be warned...
Dinner at Jiko's to top off this wonderful afternoon/evening? DELIGHTFUL!
A perfect day to get the ball rolling, what a great plan! I am looking forward to your photos!!!
you take the best pics!
Oh, trust me, I know! I can see me deciding on some afternoon pool and cocktail time daily!
I can't wait for Jiko!!! Yum!!
Thanks for compliment on my pics - having a great camera helps
I came over from Katie's PTR seeing that we are all there at the same time! I'm really looking forward to the F&G too and so happy we are finally at 49 days!!
The boys are wanting to swim, so I guess I'll take them down to the indoor pool here - something to keep them occupied for awhile anyway.
