    Back from Polynesian (Likes & Dislikes & a little surprise)

    I had my first stay at Poly couple weeks ago. While we had a great trip, I was dissappointed in the Poly :( We could afford it so we gave it a go after reading so many posts about how wonderful Poly is. Guess my expectations were too high. We did not have a bad experience there, just didn't...

    Help me decide-POR, Poly, or POP!!

    I was at Poly last week. We are also a family of 5, my kiddos are a bit older though...7, 11, & 16. I really wish we would have stayed at a Mod. Poly was nice, but I just was expecting more I guess :confused3 I just didn't find it to be worth the $$. It was in our budget to stay at Poly...

    Nine Dragons---What a great surprise!

    My occasionally picky kiddos got sweet&sour chicken with the sauce on the side. They both tried the sauce and didn't like it but gobbled up their chicken and white rice :) Looked like chicken nuggets to them.

    'Ohana New Dinner Selections

    We ate there Thurs night and it was my hubby's fav meal of the trip. He is such a carnivore though. He really enjoyed the pork and that bread pudding was yummy! I also had a Mojito that was very tasty. We did not have an ADR either.....completely lucked out! I called about 5pm that day...

    A Trail of Tears from Louisiana to WDW & Back Again! New PTR Link 8/15

    We left at about 11:30am. Took I10 to I12, thinking that would be better than 10 on through N.O. Traffic was just very heavy, and people didn't want to keep the left lane for passing......paw-paw'n in the left lane irritates the heck out of me! We stopped in De Funiak Springs, FL for the...

    Joining in! We just got back last night.... and also had a trail of tears through Louisiana! The traffic was terrible in LA on our way to WDW(June18th). Poor hubby was so frustrated! We live in TX so we had to drive all the way across LA. We are originally from Louisiana and just couldn't...

    Nine Dragons---What a great surprise!

    We ate at Nine Dragons just a couple of nights ago. I, too, thought it was great! I had the peppered shrimp and spinach pasta (don't remember the exact dish name). The shrimp were cooked perfectly and I was so happy to have a little spicey flavor.....being a Cajun girl :) We all enjoyed our...

    AKL... Giant roach eek!

    I live on the TX gulf coast, and they are terrible right now! I hate 'em too. They really seem to like hanging out in my bathroom. We haven't had very much rain past few months and I suppose they are coming in looking for water. Still give me the creeps!

    2400 pictures! Beach Club, Universal, and Bay Lake Tower Grand Villa-COMPLETE!

    We are staying at the Polynesian. This is only our second trip to the World. Last time, 3yrs ago, we took our RV and stayed at Ft Wilderness. It was great, but my kids begged to stay at a hotel/resort.....we had to live in the RV for a few months after Hurricane Ike! I think I'm more excited...

    Questioning my Spirit of Aloha ADR!

    Thank you!! I have left my ADR as is. I did cat 1 seating (didn't realize DP was not for cat 1). I'm gonna leave it as is and just pay OOP for it! I also left 1900 Park Fare for a breakfast and have an Ohana bkfast. Feel like I've made good ADRs now :) Thanks for the reassurance. BTW...

    Yea, prob. too much food for us. Think I'll stick with DP I have and just do OOP for another TS or two. Maybe if hubby and I ever go alone DXDP would work for us. Thanks for your reviews and opinion! Stephanie
