Or maybe they are seeing what colors more people like before they pick.

Definetly not my cup of tea or should I say cup of brannvin.

Contemporary as it should be!

Anywho it was cool to see all the Bentleys and Lamborghinis in the portico.

I much prefer the Marriott Vacation Club Units. The only nice things I can comment on are the tub with the window, I like that. And the Space Mountain Pics. I don't mind contemporary, the Crowne Plaza in Manchester where I sometimes stay is very contemp and plush, with a bigger TV too (for $130 a night). Disney seems to have lost it on almost every front.

Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 They look lovely to me. I'd gladly stay there. Perhaps we need to start a 'Get the Spirit a weekend (or longer) at the BLT' drive? My free meal drive is really working ... and for any stragglers let me remind you that my B-day will fall during this trip and food truly shows your love much more than LE pins, plush or, even worse, words!
