The "Oh My God! We Don't Have Any Plans and I'm Freaking Out" Trip Report

Genius!

I’ll see what I can do. Have to nurse this ridiculously priced glass of wine first. So far, I like it (well, both - the resort and the wine). Nice atmosphere but of course not themed like a Disney resort.

Having said that, we snagged a King room here for a little cheaper than a std room in CS Tower. And it’s in the middle of everything. I think we’ll be back.

And under ‘lesson learned’: Found out too late that the Swolphin has AP discounts directly on their site. If we would have downgraded to available AP room, would have saved $100/night (and MUCH cheaper than CS Tower then). Had I known in time, we probably would have done that.

The grotto pool. Much more family-friendly

Well, this is prettier than I already knew! Or, do you just take exceptional photos? It seems you have an eye for that.

If you squint past BW, you can see America pavillion and Italy tower in the background (I could look up the real name but what do you want? I’m on vacation and I’ve had a glass of wine.)
