I figured I would check and see if there was one available for October 9, which is 38 days from today, so he could see how wonderful they are. I got this reply from DLR: "We apologize, we can not book the Disney's Grand Californian Hotel Villas until 60 days prior to arrival." Does this mean if I missed calling exactly on Day 60, I can't go?!

I heard that they were "soft opening" the site this week, prior to the Grand opening on 9/23.

They are actually booked solid through October 13th, but they would be happy to assist me if I could be flexible in the dates. Unfortunately, we have tickets for the Halloween party on the 9th, so can't make the change. Oh, well, I'll keep trying!
