Love the map Amy. Yes, I stop adding pins to the US...since it would be covered. I just need Alaska to make 50! I am a visual person and love looking at the maps.
What is an extra that is worth the value?
I agree! The Wild Africa Trek is amazing. I wasn't sure if I could walk across the alligators. However, it is a thrill. You are more than safe, all hooked up! The animals we got to see, the lessons from our tour guides, and the snack at the end. 10 out of 10. I'd do it again!
What is an extra that is worth the value?
Keys to the Kingdom is worth every penny in my opinion. 5 hours of a great tour, a few cut the line rides, lunch, and of course going into the utilidoors. WORTH IT!

I love maps and glad this member map was added. Here is my push pin map, I'm three weeks out from adding Alaska! @YamKriegs here is my map, do you have one to share?
Bucket List - Disney Trips
Going to the internation parks would be amazing. I'm torn with Paris or Toyko first.
Unpopular DVC Opinions
Totally agree, the room is just blah. The pool is people soup even in September. I'll admit it's nice but what a hassle. I have to get an armband, hunt down somewhere to put my stuff and hassle to get a tube. It is supposed to be a lazy river...I get stressed.
Favorite Restaurant and Why?
Copper Creek is a home resort, so I agree on Geyser Grill. My last trip I found the Turkey BLT...oh my, it was delicious!
Bucket List - Disney Trips
They are at the Wilderness Lodge. I believe they are 2 bedroom cabins with a hot tub, full kitchen, and a fireplace. They are closer to the Boulder Ridge pool, I believe. They would be my choice over the Bungalows at the Poly. Oh, I'd love to stay there too!
MAY 2026 TRIPS THREAD
I stayed at Boardwalk last September and while the room is fine -- nothing special. The views is incredible. I had the Boardwalk view and it was the one balcony that I used the most! To add to that, the location is pretty great too! Just a short walk to the back of Epcot. I also like the lobby. Did you say where else y
MAY 2026 TRIPS THREAD
Wow, that is amazing. Happy Early Anniversary! Boathouse is a good choice.
Bucket List - Disney Trips
That would be a big bucket list check off! I'd rather do the Cascade Cabins before the Bungalows...but how awesome would either of them be?

Nothing like watching a youngster enjoy Disney for the first time! :-)
Favorite WDW DVC Resorts Ranked
So interesting to see people's view on the DVC Resorts, I'll play along. I've enjoyed every WDW DVC Resort they all have pros & cons. I'd stay at any of them again. My list: 1) Riviera* - The resort where I first became an owner. Yes, I purchased Direct with 150 pts. I love the ambience, I love the beautifully yet subt
Copper Creek Villas Owner Thread
Fellow CC owner here! Copper Creek was my second contract, got add-on-itis quickly. I own 100pts via resale. Last summer, stayed at Boulder Ridge for 4 days and last September spent 4 days at Copper Creek. The resort is just beautiful. I enjoy Roaring Fork for a quick bite. My son & I think Whispering Canyon is a hoot!

Upcoming 2026 Trips (Disney and Other)
Yes, I'll be staying at Saratoga and plan to attend the pre-cruise activities. I'd love to hear all about Croatia.
Unpopular DVC Opinions
We stayed at Big Pine Key, my first year being a DVCer. I agree, it is way too LOUD! I loved the theming, the balcony, and being able to watch the fireworks; however, I'm not sure I'll be back. The points are much higher than other resorts, so is it worth it?
