        For 2008 we locked-off our Westin Kierland unit and exchanged the first side for one bedroom at Disney Beach Club 5/17-5/24. The second side we exchanged for a two bedroom at Westin Maui 10/11-10/18.

        We used our other Westin Kierland 2 bedroom unit for an ninternal exchange and are going to Atlantis in June. We got a one bedroom deluxe and a two bedroom lock-off for the Kierland unit.

        With our Disney points we are going in April at Animal Kingdom and again in October to the Animal Kingdom. We are also going in December, but have not booked that unit yet.

        We will have 300+ Disney points left over to use for the year that we have not decided what to with them. We also have a one bedroom premium unit at Kierland that we are going to deposit fo rfuture use. And lastly, we have another Atlantis we in May 9-16 that we are not going to use now.

          Wow! My timeshare use is even punier than I thought! (But I'm glad to have found the various timeshare groups online to actually GET a vacation!)

          We basically get 2-3 weeks every 2 years with our points, trading into RCI. Then we buy 2-3 weeks each year through bonus vacations or last call vacations.

          2007 - 2 (2bdrm) units at Xmas Mountain in February -- bonus vacations (brought 1 other family)

          4 (1 bdrm loft) units at Breezy Point in April -- last call vacations (brought 3 other families)

          2008 -- 2 (1bdrm loft) units at Peppertree at Tamarack in Wisconsin Dells -- bonus vacations (bringing 1 other family)

          2009 -- seeking 2-3 (2bdrm) units in Disney area for February.
          Possibly 1 unit in Hawaii for 20th anniversary??

              I am learning quickly to love it alot!

              With my kierland unit, I am getting the best of both worlds. Internal trading through Starwood and external trading though II.

                  All exchanges with RCI

                  Used (5023) South Shore Lake Resort (bonus from Inverness deposit) to exchange to Los Abrigados (2026) at Sedona 12/21/07

                  Used (2-bedroom) (2237) Inverness at Waldon - Phase II for another week at Los Abrigados - Sedona 12-21-07

                  Used Krystal Vallarta (2456) to get 2-bedroom Arroyo Roble - Sedona (5172) for 12-21-07

                  Used Tahoe Edgelake (0746) deposit (1-bedroom July 4 week) to get a 2-bedroom at Morritt's Grand (5930) for February 23, 2008 (acquired during bulk-space-banking)

                  Traded Krystal for Bluegreen Wilderness Club at Big Cedar (6311) for November 21, 2008

                  Traded Inverness for the second week at Big Cedar for November 21, 2008

                  I just deposited a week in II that can only be used for flexchange (late deposit) - I'm anxious to see what that will get. I am searching in II with another Inverness week - can decide whether to deposit it with II or RCI.
