Jennifer, like you, we are WDW vets. This is our first trip to DLR. We bought into AKV in October and had developer points that needed to be used, (needed, lol)... just give me another reason to go! We've never been to CA. We did make it to AZ one year (dd was a competitive gymnast and had a competition out there).
I honestly thought we'd never get any further. I was so excited when we decided to do this. We are four months away from our trip and cannot wait. I'm checking out your TR for any tips.
We bought into AKV too. We finally get to stay at Kidani Village this fall (2-bedroom Savannah-View). I can't wait! Every past WDW trip, we ventured over to AKV and checked out the progress of our new "home". We aren't staying there in June. We're staying at SSR (less points and they had availability). But, we plan to go check out the completed AKV resort.
We never got around to it ... check out the DVC models for the new VGC (The Villas at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel® & Spa). The models are right next to the DLH. Presently, unless you visit the preview center, all you can see is the exterior construction of the new Villas (I think they open Fall 2009). We definitely plan to stay there on our next DLR visit. I have been spoiled with DVC. I missed the space and my washer and dryer in the room during our DLH visit. We walked through the GCH for our Storytellers breakfast. That hotel is beautiful. It reminded me of WL a bit, but on a smaller scale.
Our trip is now just a memory. I am so envious of y'all that haven't been yet. Maybe, I can live vicariously through you???????
Have a magical trip!
Jennifer
