On my last trip down to Walt Disney World, the Disney Vacation Club was offering special room tours at all of the DVC Resorts in addition to the usual model tours. After striking up a conversation with a friendly DVC Guide at Disney's Contemporary Resort, I took the opportunity to tour a Bay Lake Tower Two-Bedroom Villa so that I snap some pictures to share with you.

Special Ideas for Celebrating new Year at Walt Disney World

Ringing in the New Year at Walt Disney World is one of those things I dreamed of as a girl. Frankly, I place the blame directly on the early 80's version of Carousel of Progress. However, as an adult just the thought of fighting through the New Year Crowds on Main Street USA triggers an anxiety attack. Avoiding crowds during the holidays at Disney is all relative, and while it will be crowded and busy no matter where you go, avoiding the parties in the Parks will help ease a bit of that traffic.

25 Reasons I Love Being A Disney Vacation Club Member

This year the Disney Vacation Club (DVC) is celebrating 25 Years ... and beyond of creating amazing vacation magic. Disney's unique concept of a time share and the things that it would offer its owners shook up the industry when it first debuted and has been providing world class service ever since. My husband and I bought our membership in 2008 and while we wouldn't really call it a financial "investment," it is by far the best investment in our family that we've ever made.

3 Disney World Resort Lounges for a Great Nightcap

Headed back to your room from a busy day at the park, it's not unusual to think about stopping for a nightcap before hitting the sack. A nightcap is an alcoholic beverage meant to warm and sooth you before going to bed. Frequently people choose something with a higher alcohol content, usually a liqueur or spirit. Traditional nightcaps are brandy or a cream-based liqueur or a bourbon. However Wine or Beer are also more and more common these days.
