How much longer do I have to wait!!!!Some days are just harder than others. I would just love to skip right over the next few months, so we can head off for WDW already. Ah well. . .the time will go by quickly. Right?
Not TOO much longer... like you have said once you start back to school it will go by much faster. And well it is already August and you will be back to work very soon.
Another partner to help enjoy the fun is even better. 
the amazing pics of food from the various eateries at WDW that are on this thread: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1712222 It is very worth checking out. You get a better picture of what you might eat in various places and what might not be for you. 
Over the last few days, my DH and I have been scanning through
I remembered that for our last trip we went on the part one thread of this topic and it helped us with our food choices, so much. I couldn't find that thread, and finally came across this part 2 thread. Apparently, part one still exists, but had to be locked due to size. Anyway, we're only part way through going through all this thread has on it. Warning: You'll either start feeling very hungry or extremely full from all the food pics overload, but definitely check it out.
Every time we see a picture of the zebra domes from the AKL restaurants, we so want to get some of those wonderful treats NOW! 
I mean look at them:
OK, yeah, I definitely want a zebra dome now!!! We got to try those on our trip and WOW they are sooooooooo good.
Funny I have never been to the AKL.. I know when we went back in 2001 it was either just about to open or had just opened but I have never been..
It will have to be on my next trip.. I told DH that I won't be satisfied with Disney until I have stayed at EVERY RESORT!
The AKL is an amazing place. I hear you about trying all the resorts! We still want to try: GF, WL, Poly, Contemporary, BC. . .not necessarily in that order. As a kid, I thought it was the ultimate thing to get to stay at the Contemporary, every time we rode through it on the monorail. As an adult, I think that's still the reason I want to stay there, but part of me thinks it's too hotel looking to me. The GF and the WL are so beautiful. I hope we get to try each of those some day. I hope we get to stay at the BC if we go during the summer or spring. I just love the way their pool system is with the lazy river and all. It's also so pretty looking. Oh, and since we love to go on cruises, we just have to try a Disney cruise. Okay, that's enough of my ranting on Disney resorts.
Out of those we've only ever stayed at the Poly (well, and now AKL!), and it is awesome! Actually, now that I think about it we've visited all of those resorts and one point But I would love to try to stay at all those resorts, especially the WL and BC. One of those wishes may become a reality if I don't get a job for the fall...we have reservations at the Beach Club Villas in the middle of December!!
Are you excited about the new school year or are you not ready for it? It's depressing me that I don't have a position yet when many of my classmates do and I know they're probably all getting ready for the year.
What did you enjoy about the Poly the most? We think it's beautiful there whenever we've eaten at Ohana. What did you like best about the AKL? I am still working my way through your TR. What shouldn't we miss about the resort? Well, if you do get a job, you'll just have to stay at the BC some other time. Are you doing a PTR for that trip? I'm always excited about a new school year, though I do love summer break. I'm somewhat ready for it. I've read the new novels we'll be teaching this year, revamped some lesson plans and created some new things. I always do that, partly so I don't get bored teaching exactly the same thing all the time, and partly to keep things fresh. I have a few more things to prepare, and next week I'll probably begin going in to start doing stuff in my classroom and begin photocopying for the first week. I don't return until September 2nd, and the kids return on the 5th. 
Loved your TR from last yr, so neeedless
Oh, wow! The BC in December. Cool!
I know it's depressing not having a teaching job. When I faced that same situation after graduating, with all my friends getting positions, I decided to sub and tutor. I learned a lot that way, even though it wasn't the same. Try to hang in there. If you don't get a teaching job for the fall, what do you plan to do?
It was also so cool because even though you're right in the "heart" of Disney World (so close to the MK and then the GF and Contemporary right there) it doesn't feel like it...it felt like you were miles away. We always enjoyed going out to the little beach too.
Wow!! Guess I'm not paying attention, I just saw
your pre trippie and had to jump on board to hear
all about the anticipation and magic!! Christmas is
so so special at disney, definitely the best time to
visit
to say I've hopped on your upcoming magical journey!!
Hi! Great to see you again. I'm so glad that you decided to join me again for another trip report. I hope you've enjoyed it so far. Just a few more months to go. I agree, the Polynesian is a beautiful resort. We definitely loved being on the monorail loop too.
As for the AKL, I'm an animal lover so having those savannas there was definitely my favorite part of the resort. We didn't eat at any of the restaurants there, so I can't comment on that. I loved the pool area too. Again, just the whole theming is amazing. I know, that probably doesn't help much!
haha, you're right, if I can't go I'll just go some other time. As much as I love Disney I'd rather have a job. I may decide to do a PTR once I get a better idea about what I'll be doing.
As for what I'll do if I don't have a job, I'll just be subbing...I did for the second half of last school year. I subbed in a couple districts and between them, I was pretty lucky because I was able to get assignments almost every day (the district I did my student teaching in has 12 elementary schools alone).
RACE YOU!
