Later, Furret and Umbreon are back at the Downtown Disney Bus stop.
Umbreon "Look at that nice building, I like the Architecture in it."
Furret "Shall we explore?"
Umbreon and Furret cross the street and walk down the sidewalk.
Umbreon "Oh, look, its the Wyndham"
Furret and Umbreon check out the Parking Lot.
Furret "Plenty of Parking, they need to repave this side parking road, its a
little bumpy."
Umbreon "Don't forget, this Hotel has been here awhile."
Furret and Umbreon go into the Convention Center.
Umbreon "This is nice, and very well kept up!"
Furret peeks into the Great Room "Wow -- that is big! They could
hold anything Pokemon here."
Umbreon "Maximum Occupancy 2,445 people. The Hotel can split this
room up into half and quarters as well."
Furret and Umbreon see several big rooms and lots of little rooms.
Umbreon "You know Doug had a dream last night. He was helping
staff at Worlds, and they were giving packets or something to the
Players who were going to play the next day, but MTM was running
it instead of Nitendo. Anyway, MTM got to the last packet and
it had Doug's name on it. Doug was surprised, he didn't expect to
get an invitation."
Furret sniffs "Doug won 2nd at the Pokemon Professor World Championship 2003,
3rd at the Fan Appreciation Event 2003, and judged in the Team
Battle World Championship 2003. Of course, MTM would have made sure
Doug and others got an invitation."
Umbreon and Furret turn the corner and get lost in this big Hotel.
Furret "Ummm...where is the lobby??"
Umbreon "I don't know, but this sure is a nice place."
Later, after finding the Lobby and getting information,
Furret and Umbreon walk around the swimming pool-spa area.
Furret "It looks like 2 buses run between Magic Kingdom and
all of the Downtown Disney Hotels. They drop off guests and
then swing back by to pick up guests when the bus is empty.
With 2 buses, they can pick up people about every half hour.
Each of the other 3 Theme Parks are connected in this way.
This service is free.
Furret sits down by a tree.
Umbreon "Rates are about $129 up to about $199 depending on how
full the Hotel is. A group convention rate would drop that a little bit.
Disney's Pop Century Resort and all 3 of Disney's All Star Resorts
are $99 a night and that price doesn't increase when they fill up.
Transportation from any of the Disney Resorts becomes easy
when you realize that if you take a bus to Downtown Disney and
get off at the first Bus Stop, then you can cross the street and
walk to the Wyndham Hotel.
All Disney Resorts have free Disney Bus Service to all Theme Parks,
Water Parks, and Downtown Disney.
The wind ruffles Furret's Fur.
Umbreon "When I called this morning, the Wyndham did not have a Pokemon
Convention scheduled for it yet. Don't forget, there are at least 3 other Convention
Centers on Disney Property.
