Our 1st day at WDW

[btwitkin]

Arrived early Monday morning. Checked into POP and asked if I could get an upgrade to a moderate or deluxe resort. They said no, which was really disappointing. I asked to speak to a manager to see if there was anything they could do, but again was told no.....guess I'll be writing a letter to Disney when I get home.

Since our room wasn't ready at 9 am (which is enough of a reason to give me an upgrade), the 1st thing we did was go get our refillable mugs. This is one of the best purchases you can make.

After that, we decided to go into the pool. I am glad we packed our swimsuits in our carryons. We didn't care for the pools at POP too much, so we decided to drive over to GF and use the pool there. Heck, if they won't upgrade us to stay there, at least they can let us use the pool. After swimming, we filled up our mugs at GF and headed back to POP to see if our room was ready. Got back to POP around 12 and it still wasn't ready! We were furious, but didn't want that to ruin the day. We hopped back in our car and went to HS. When we pulled into the parking lot we had some questions about rides and asked the parking attendant a few questions. Within 10 minutes there was a line of impatient people in their cars honking like mad, trying to park. All we wanted was some basic information on show times, ride waits, etc...We didnt talk to the attendant for more than 15 minutes.

Finally, we took the tram and got into HS. We went over to RNR for FP's. The return time was 4. We decided to head over to Backlot and get a quick bite to eat. When we got there, my little boy had a poop in his diaper, so we changed it on the table. A couple of people said it wasn't right to do it there, but we didn't care. My wife had scouted another table for us to actually eat at.

After lunch it was 3, so we headed back to RNR. The CM would NOT let us use our FP. This ensued into a huge argument. I dont see why we couldnt use the FP whenever we wanted. It was UNBELEIVABLE! We decided to just skip a bunch of people in the standby line by saying we had family waiting for us in the front of the line.

After that, we headed to Muppet Vision 3D. We were one of the 1st ones in !!!! The CM's were trying to get us to move to the end of the row, but I had none of that. I like to sit dead center. We put our bags on chairs to the sides of us so no one could sit next to us. We like elbow room.

Left HS and headed back to POP. Our room was finally ready, so we went in and relaxed for a while. We headed over to MK for Wishes and pushed our way to the front to get a good view. It wasn't easy moving a group of people 30 rows deep, but we managed to do it without too many altercations.

Went back to POP and went to sleep. In my next report I will tell you all about our day at MK using the ECV's even though we really don't need them, and my thoughts on being able to smoke on the Dumbo line.

:confused3 Did POP tell you that your room would be ready by nine a.m. For some reason I was thinking that rooms weren't generally ready until the afternoon. At least it is that way when we go.

As far as changing the diaper, I think I would have been doing that in a restroom since others who are eating may not want to see/smell a poopy diaper. It's a bit of an appetite killer, you know? They have changing tables in the restrooms.

And in regard to the FP, I'm not surprised the CM didn't let you in. Your return time is four. You can't get in sooner than that, but if you come after four, it doesn't matter when you come, they'll let you in line. Did you really break in front of all those people who'd been waiting? :confused3

Wow, Disney sure earned their money the week you there!
Your post is a great example of everything not to do or expect as a guest.
I'm embarrassed for you....

Dude...either you have a wicked sense of humor or you are just wicked! Come on...please tell me u did NOT change a diaper on a table!!!!:eek:

[MmmmDisney.]

It's a joke people.

[MICKEY4EVER!]

It's a joke people.

I wondered. NO WAY somebody actually did all that. Not funny. :mad:

[Disney4nonah]

It's a joke people.
GOONESS I hope so.... :scared1:

[carlabing]

I almost fell out of my chair!! :rotfl::rotfl2: Thanks for making me smile!!

[daisy hughes]

It's a joke people.

if that's the case then bring on day 2!

[MICKEY4EVER!]

I just think if it's a joke, then it should be labeled as such. I mean, I have as good a sense of humor as anyone, but thinking this was real was kind of making me mad!

[lovebuzz]

I'm sorry, but as I read it I knew it was a joke without it stating it in the headline.:lmao:

What happened in day 2? Let me guess your child had another dirty diaper and you were out of wipes, so you just used the water fountain?:)

Funny!

But you know what is really sad? The fact that some of us...including me...thought that someone would actually have the nerve to do those things...albeit not all in one day! That should have tipped me off!;)

[Jdougherty]

OMG LOL,

Umm not sure if it's a joke or not. POssibly couldn't be after having family that live in LBI, NJ and Manahawkin and having grown up in a resort area outside of Chicago/Southbend. I swear there are people who think they are "entitled" and DO act like that.

Can't wait for day 2, I'm in just for the morbid lesson on how not to act in WDW.

See now the water fountain idea is way better than mine. I was going to suggest that when they were out of baby wipes in MK they just took the baby onto IASM and dipped him into the water from the side of the boat.

[purpletiger]

You know the sad thing is we all think and hope it might be a joke but people really do those things at the World. Sad but true. Just not all in one day. Lmao

I sure hope its a joke. You should have gone to the BC/stormalong pool. They check armbands and you could have had a free for all there!! Next maybe steal folks KTTW and charge massive amounts at DTD maybe ride the balloon!!! Oh be SURE to take refillable mugs to parks and demand the CM to refill with cokes, etc. Tell them your KTTW cards have been stolen, and you're a diabetic and MUST have liquids.

Did POP tell you that your room would be ready by nine a.m. For some reason I was thinking that rooms weren't generally ready until the afternoon. At least it is that way when we go.

I just assumed the room would be ready by midnight of the date we are supposed to check in. I mean if I am paying for a night, shouldn't I get 24 hours in that room?



As far as changing the diaper, I think I would have been doing that in a restroom since others who are eating may not want to see/smell a poopy diaper. It's a bit of an appetite killer, you know? They have changing tables in the restrooms.

Have you seen those restrooms? They are filthy!!! I know it's an appetite killer, that's why I had my wife find a seperate table...smart, huh?

And in regard to the FP, I'm not surprised the CM didn't let you in. Your return time is four. You can't get in sooner than that, but if you come after four, it doesn't matter when you come, they'll let you in line.

Yeah, I got a little one...the adults can wait their turn. See, I think that once you get an FP that should be it. You can immediately go on the ride and use the FP. Why should I have to come back so many hours later? Doesn't seem fair.

Due to popular demand, Day 2 is now posted. You can find it here:
