Title: Quick weekend at Disney's Fort Wilderness with new A/C
Post by: djsamuel on July 19, 2015, 11:59:36 AM
Just returned from a quick weekend trip to Fort Wilderness.  Had a great time, and the new A/C worked great.  The newer Penguin 2 A/Cs are MUCH quieter and even in 98 degree temperature and exposure to sun, was easily able to keep the camper 72 degrees inside.  

We stay at Fort Wilderness a lot, one reason is my wife's discount for working there, but the other big reason is the atmosphere.

We were sitting on the porch at Trails End restaurant having some iced tea, and a banjo player from Hoop De Doo Revue came over, sat down with us and started to play.  You just can't beat that.

A/C working or link working - can't have both!  Thanks for the report on the Penguin. All A/C fail at some point. I think I will go with the Penguin when mine dies.

[font size="3"]Doug,

Neither link works. Sometimes Facebook requires login to view.

[/font][/quote]Strange.  I've used that method before and it specifically says it is a link for those without Facebook accounts.  I'll have to check another way.

Thanks to all for the heads up.

OK, I changed the privacy settings.  It should work now.
