On the move - part 1

 

Our last morning at the Yacht Club had broken 

 


 


 


 


 

and by 10am we had had a leftovers breakfast and called bell services to transfer our luggage from the Yacht Club to the Beach Club. 

We just walked over to the Beach Club and checked in and were told that our room was ready. 


 

We were floored. 


 

We jokingly told the check-in cast member that we had just stored our luggage at the Yacht Club and they had told us that it would be waiting for us by 4pm and she just picked up the phone, called the Yacht Club and told us to head up to our room, as our luggage would arrive within the next 20 minutes. 

Wow! That’s definitely Disney magic. 

We walked over to the Villas, and went up to the fourth floor to find our room. It was not quite where we had requested it to be, but we were so happy to literally just go from one room to the other without being homeless, that it did not matter at all. 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 

 


 

We waited for our luggage and we had not been in the room for very long when there was a knock at the door and our luggage was delivered. By now it was just 11am and we were in our new room and all settled. But not for too long. 

Tom had organized a Geocache meeting and we needed to get going if we didn’t want to be late for our own meeting. 

We marched back to the Yacht Club, picked up the car and drove to Disney Springs. 


 

And went right past the correct parking garage. 


 

So we drove all the way down to the end of Disney Springs and turned around about where the Reedy Creek fire department is and back to the garage. We made it to the meeting point, which was opposite the Coca Cola building with about 15 minutes to spare. 

And we had just sat down on a little wall when the first geocachers arrived and they all had a lot of fun sharing stories and looking at travelbugs and geocoins. 


 


 


 


 


 

The meeting was supposed to take just half an hour but a cast member who is also a geocacher arrived only about 25 minutes in and we all stayed and chatted. They exchanged coins and travelbugs and Tom sent off his two new travelers, the Emperor Franzl and his wife Sissi, two small figurines which he wanted to send off and see if they would ever make their way back home. 

Franzl was taken to the Northeast, while Sissi made her way to Seattle. 

They have traveled quite some distances since. 
 

Around 1am the meeting ended and we packed up and went shopping to Publix so we could have some snacks in the room for the next four days until we would have to travel home. Shortly after 2pm we were back at our room, put everything away and off we went to have some more Food and Wine yummies at Epcot.
