We are in a colder clime, but still hate the chill. We are among those who are shivering at WDW when it dips below 70.
It has been unseasonably cool here this weekend as well. I hope everyone in the NE is spared the nasty weather from early last winter.
Oh
k&a&c'smom we DID miss you, and please take gentle care and I also hope you are able to rest and get better soon
Aww, thanks,
pas.
I'm feeling much better.

Thank you! And your DD's AKL print sounds great! There was one sand pail print at the GF gift shop last month. It was lovely.
I know what you mean about meaning to do things or buy things and then for whatever reason you forget or don't have time. That's how I feel about the Tonga Toast. It was supposed to be a must do this trip and once again, I didn't get to try it, so next trip!
ps. wishing everyone speedy recoveries
I know, we so often have a plan to pick up a missed souvenir, but get busy and forget. I hate that we missed out on all the GF pillows.
Is Mizners still open as a lounge in the evenings? My DH and I love to have a drink there and listen to the music before dinner at Citricos.
No.. from what i hear they are using the area temporarily as a place to get food to go. I've seen pics and the entire place had been cleared of all furniture.
Thanks for this update. We love stopping in Mizner's for a drink in the evenings as well, what a shame it won't be available during the construction. We didn't even think to ask about the upcoming changes, we had drinks several times and often had the room to ourselves in the early evening, chatting with the CMs.
I did hear from CMs at the Tea Room they will be getting an update soon. Changes to layout and incorporating the "kitchen" area into the room, if the current plans are carried out.
We've just booked the Grand for 13 nights in August 2013!!!! I'm so excited. I did my ICP at Gaspys and fell in love with the hotel. I never thought that I would get to stay here
Welcome!
Congrats on your booking, two weeks, woohoo!!
We are currently driving to WDW, and after 1,000 miles will be checking into the BC in an hour! We are staying at the BC, due in part to all the construction at the GF. However, I am a picture taker and poster so I promise to post pictures this week!
YAY!
You must be checked in by now, hopefully in your room. Have a wonderful, magical vacation.
Can't wait to see your photos and hear about the most recent updates.
Thanks for that link, great photos.
Thanks so much for posting this- especially since it has links to the breakfast time and menus. UGH!!! No Mickey waffles or pancakes for breakfast!
Considering those are the ONLY things DD(6) eats for breakfast when we are at WDW, it looks like we are going to have a problem. Now back to debating whether we do room service or change resorts if we can even change at our bounceback rate at this late date.
If they just had a pancake or waffle we could probably make do!
Hopefully someone will post soon what the Mizners hours and offerings are. Looks like the Beach Pool Bar isn't going to have any evening offerings as it only goes through "lunch", so it will be good to know if there are any late night options for DH when we get back from the parks at night.
It's quite possible there are more items than are listed - I don't see a children's menu on this link and most venues have one. As for the dinner and late night menus, the bar menu includes the same food items as the "lunch" menu, and lists their hours as "11 a.m. through 11 a.m."!
I'm assuming it is a typo, and they mean 11 a.m. - 11 p.m., since the article lists hours for the grill as 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.
At least we have some sort of back-up in place... no power is no fun!
