A Dole Whip in my hand & my toes in the sand: CBR/Poly Split Stay – This Is The Life!

Wow- what a great update! It looks like such a fun, relaxing night. The kids looked like they really hit it off!
I cannot believe that we are about to be on your last full day! I thoroughly enjoy reading about your adventures and will be sad when this TR is over! Thanks for sharing with us.

I loved watching Wishes on the beach- what fun!!
Did they start at 9 that night? I like it when they start earlier- the 10:00 is so late when you've had a busy day.
What cute goody bags!
Last day coming up- so sad Not sure what park, but I'll guess MK only b/c we always go there on our last day.

The torch lighting ceremony looks like something nice to catch if staying at the Poly. It is after 7pm and I need to get some supper, I have to say the CL offerings looked good, I would probably take stuff back to the room and enjoy it on the balcony too if the lounge was busy. Once again you and DH look so nice and relaxed sitting on the balcony

Yeah, you should definitely catch the Torch Lighting Ceremony if you are staying at the Poly or even going there for dinner around that time. It's very neat!

It really was so nice and relaxing sitting on the balcony.

Thanks Lauren! The kids definitely hit it off very well!

I know, only one more full day to report on and then the final morning. It's so sad when trips and trip reports are over!

I think Wishes was at 9:00 that night. I know, I prefer it at 9 and not 10. 10:00 is too late for us!!

The kids loved their goody bags!

Well I will give you a hint -- we wanted to get to the last park via the monorail, so you have a 50% chance of being right in your guess!!

I didn't know that did the EWP happens while Wishes was performing. Cool fireworks pictures! Awesome meet up time too! Those robe pictures were very funny too. What an exciting and perfect day you had.

Yep - when Wishes is at 9pm they are at the same time!

The meet up was very fun!

I laughed so hard when I saw DS10 in that robe!!

 

[JoBird]

THE ROBES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did you just die laughing???????? Oh my gosh I have laughed hysterically at that sight!!

Oh boy. That night. I don't think it could have gotten much better! I remember sitting there, you on my left, our kids nearby, Mark on my right--Wishes playing, and thinking "This might be the best start to a trip ever."

Of course it was so sad to say goodbye that night to you guys b/c I knew it was almost over for you. And knowing we wouldn't see much more of each other was so hard.

But it was really a great night and I have wonderful memories. You've done a great job here capturing that feeling!!!



Great update!

That torch lighting looks really cool. And it looks like you had a nice relaxing night with Jo and crew I love the Poly beach.

The robes! Your little DS10 looks adorable! He is swimming in that thing. LOL!

 

[ronnmel]

I like the EWP, but I would have found it distracting to have it going on at the same time as Wishes.

 

[Lovemy3babes]

How nice to just be able to "sit" on your vacation. Too often we run around and just tire ourselves out.

The CL offerings look yummy!

How is Wishes viewed from the Poly? Can you hear the music pretty well? It's on my list to do sometime.

I'm sad your report is coming to an end Shelly. I love that you update so often and share so much with us.

 

[sjs314]

What an awesome night you all had. I am another one that did not know the EWP ran at times during Wishes. I think if I get the urge bad enough I will push the issue about watching Wishes from the Beach at the Poly. DH hates the crowds in MK before , during and after the fireworks

You DS crack me up in some of the pictures especially the "Party King"

Your other DS looked like he was shrinking in that oversized robe.

I think you went to MK the next day

 

[DisMomAmy]

Wow - the castle looks so tiny compared to the fireworks! I guess you don't realize when you are standing near the castle.

So cool that the water pagent was going by at the same time! I thought it was after Wishes ended.

Looks like a fun evening was had by all!

 

[RinkyTinkyTinky]

Oh I do love that Poly beach! Looks like you had a great time that night! I love watching the fireworks from there. The finale looks so good from a distance like that.

Ok, that robe picture is TOO funny! Oh my gosh! Your DS is just drowning in that thing and he has that grin that looks like the cat who caught the canary! I love it!

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

Loved that update!!! The "Party King" looks like Elvis in that picture! LOL!! All those kids are soo stinkin' cute!!!

 

[204charity]

Awwww.....I don't want your TR to end! (If I get this emotional for YOUR trip, what am I going to be like when MY OWN trip ends?!?)

 

[T*Bird]

What a magical and fun evening y'all had! It reminds me of when we go to the beach on vacation. I absolutely love spending evenings outside on the beach under the moonlight. And that's without seeing fireworks over the castle or the EWP! The kids are obviously having the time of their lives! Great pics of all of y'all.

Your boys are too funny! The pic of your DH and DS10 in the robes made me laugh so much. And the Party King! I bet there's never a dull moment in your house.

So sad that your last day is coming up!

 

[Dispd]

Woohoo!!! I love trip reports

 

[Moodyzblu]

Great update !!

Love the robe's and "Party King" pictures .. too funny !!

Watching Wishes from the beach looks so cool ! (although I too would find the EWP going through st the same time distracting)

Your last day is coming up ?? Waah

 

[Lil'Mermaid75]

I don't think I'm ready for your TR to end!

 

[Mndisneygirl]

I will only allow you to end this TR if you are doing a PTR for your May trip.

Great update!

I know, THE ROBES!!! It was especially funny to see them in them after that dream I had about the robes!

It was a great night, but yes I was starting to get that sad - my trip is coming to an end soon --- feeling. But we made the most of our time!! And I was so happy for you guys just starting your trip.

Glad you enjoyed the update!

That torch lighting looks really cool. And it looks like you had a nice relaxing night with Jo and crew I love the Poly beach.

The robes! Your little DS10 looks adorable! He is swimming in that thing. LOL!

The torch lighting is very cool! It was a great night all around.

The robes were hilarious! The look on DS's face and his tiny body in that huge thing was so funny!

I like the EWP, but I would have found it distracting to have it going on at the same time as Wishes.

It was a little distracting but not too bad!
