Just got home tonight from our first ever DVC trip, as well as first ever onsite stay at Disney!
Some will probably say we are nuts for buying a DVC without ever having stayed onsite at WDW, but there was no doubt in my mind we would love it! We've been to Disney many, many times but because we had access to nice off-site accommodations through DH's work, we never stayed onsite.
We bought at VWL because I love the theming there, especially at Christmas, which seems to be when we go most often. But I couldn't get a studio there for last week, so a few months ago I began to piece together the week, thinking we'd have to do a split stay, but we got super lucky and were able to get 7 consecutive nights at BLT lake view, which was absolutely breathtaking...
Omg, I can't even begin to explain how blown away we were by the whole Disney experience! We didn't have a free minute, there was so much to do and we didn't want to miss anything! Of course we still couldn't do it all, but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and can't wait to go back.
We also visited other DVC properties while we were there...we can't wait to stay at our home resort (hopefully this Christmas!), and we also want to try to
stay at BCV and BWV too at some point down the road. The good news is we have 28 years to visit (hopefully) ALL the DVC resorts!
Just wanted to share our excitement! BTW, we used the magic bands this week and they totally rocked!!!
