Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted October 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I have to defend Doug ... he fixed problems that others had caused. It DID have to wait until late this morning to get it fixed. Disney has a company arriving at 1pm to move our camper to Site 911 (which is appropriate). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beckers 1,136 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Meanwhile at the Fort, the delivery company for our RV was told by the CM at check in that we didn't have a site assigned yet, and to drop it off in overflow. He did so, and left us with no camper at our site when we arrived. OldeKoot was a VERY unhappy camper! The manager at the front desk is a trainee in a temporary assignment, and did very little to resolve the issue well, we were put up in a cabin overnight, but were told that we would have to pay to have the camper moved to our site. As an aside, 509 has to be the smallest site at the Fort! It could barely hold our truck, much less the camper and anything else. I asked to speak to the Duty Manager, and guess who showed up ... Doug Lord! Problem resolved. First thing in the morning, both Disney and I will be searching for someone that can deliver the camper to our site (NOT 509), and Disney World will pick up the bill. TWO major problems with satisfactory resolutions ... but it's been one HELL of a day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Glad it all worked out. My hope is that Mama will forget the first night with all the fun she is having at her Fort Feast! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I am here running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get ready to go! I am going to try to sneak out of work early and hope to be there tomorrow evening! Did I tell y'all I can't wait? If I look like the wreck of the Hesperus it's because I just grabbed clothes and threw them in a bag. Let's hope I have a few things that kind of match! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stacktester 78 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 As I was on my way to deliver a camper to FW today I get a call from the front desk. They said do you have a truck that can move a 5th wheel. I said yes and I'll be in about 1. So I drop my trailer off and go meet Denny from the front. He walks me out to a camper and days please take it to 911. As I'm hooking up a red truck pulls up and the bulb comes on it's Ed and Monma. I told Denny I know this guy and he voted for Obama and I decline to move it now. Kidding lol. So anyway I take it in and the rest is history. Hope you got it taken care of.

Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted October 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 So, I'm at the Front Desk and they (3 of them because they were afraid to deal with me one-on-one) came over and told me they had a mover, and they would be in overflow about 1 pm. Took OldeKoot to The Wave for lunch to calm her down while we were waiting. Get back to overflow, and who do I see getting ready to hitch up ... DONNIE! Yes, FortFiend Donnie! What are the chances of that happening? Now it's time to set up. WTFort happened to the water hose, RITA?!? Put that on the list of things we need to go buy. WhereTFort is the FortFiends sign ... RITA agian. Awning? That requires that metal rod to unlock and pull down the awning ...RITA? Do you detect a pattern here? A quick trip to Wal-Mart, and we aquire a new hose and pressure regulator ... and a couple additional outdoor end tables. While we are there, OldeKoot sees the All Hallow's Eve (aka Halloween) section and decides we have to go to Sam's because they havethe "BIG bags". Off to Sam's. She finds a bag with the mixture SHE likes, and puts it in the buggy, stating, "That's MY bag"! They just happen to have long strings of orange lights and purple lights next to the candy, so ... . I get a surge suppressor power strip for the camper, and while in the Electronics Section, OldeKoot notices the cameras, and conveniently points out that she needs a good camera, so. She has a cute little purple (I refuse to say that it is 'plum' colored) Nikon camera. "Did I get film for my new camera"? How do you explain that this little 16 GB SD card is the film? By this time, because I have spent so much time shopping, she is hungry. Time to swing by Winn-Dixie for dinner and "breakfast meat". Finally we get back, and while I unpack our few items, OldeKoot starts getting supper ready. Chicken wings, fruit salad, olives, pickles and grapes from Winn-Dixie. While I'm getting the water connected, she finishes eating and is getting ready for a hot bath. Such a rough day for OldeKoot, maybe tomorrow will be less stressful on her. ?..

h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I love it. Disney screws up and Donnie gets paid. That's like giving Doug a monetary wedgie. Ed. You need to quit taking Mama out so much and wearing her out. She needs her rest. LolSounds like a great trip so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stacktester 78 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I received no compensation. Didn't want any. Just helping a fellow camper out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Memphis 105 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I swear I was thinking "I wonder if Donnie is around" when I read about needing the camper moved. Then I read on and see He was! How cool that Donnie was there to help. Hope things go smooth from now on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fortpartyof4 108 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Donnie, you rock! Ed, that's funny about the candy….is she gonna fight the kids for it? I suspect you are actually enjoying running all over town with her. Hopefully you got it all in so you can stay at the Fort and let her harass you there instead. As much as I love to shop, I hate having to leave the Fort when we're there. But I refuse to pay the mouse the ridiculous prices in the Trading Posts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I received no compensation. Didn't want any. Just helping a fellow camper out.Not only was that incredibly generous of you, I think it was pretty smart. Staying on Disney's good side with how they have been with outside vendors is probably a good idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
