Welcome back to planDisney, Janice! You've chosen two fabulous resorts to call home during your upcoming Walt Disney World vacation. My family has not yet crossed Disney's Wilderness Lodge off of our "stayed there" list, though we have visited several times to admire the beautiful resort and to enjoy a meal. Speaking of meals, I hope you've got a meal at
Whispering Canyon Cafe planned during your stay; it's a real hoot!
I've got some great news for you with regard to
Memory Maker. Your purchase will include all of the Disney PhotoPass images that you take from within 30 days of activation. So, if you activate your package by smiling and saying "Mickey" at Magic Kingdom on September 5th, your Memory Maker package will include every PhotoPass photo you link to your Disney account by scanning either a MagicBand, PhotoPass card or personal QR code through October 5th. That's thirty days worth of smiles, attraction photos and Magic Shots all included in your Memory Maker package. As the photographer in my family, I, for one, absolutely love the Memory Maker package because it allows me to get in front of the camera with my kiddos and husband.
You mentioned you'll also be staying at
Disney's Contemporary Resort during your trip. It's a great choice for many reasons including the convenience of monorail transportation and some excellent dining options.
The Wave Lounge is one of my hidden gem favorites. Dining at the bar is a great option for a tasty and convenient last minute meal when you don't feel like making reservations. Keep that spot in mind!
Hey, Janice, don't be a stranger here at planDisney, okay? Stop by any old time with questions and give us the opportunity to help you plan some magical details for your trip. It's our absolute pleasure!
