Hey Everyone!
I'm sorry - I purposely did not read anyone's posts, in case you discussed today's AMC episode, but I just wanted to say GREETINGS FROM ROOM 3612 OF DISNEY'S POLYNESIAN RESORT AT WALT DISNEY WORLD!!!
!!!!!!!!!
I RODE IASW, TODAY!!!!!
!!!!!!!!
And our wedding was wonderful - we couldn't have hoped for anything more perfect! Everything went relatively smoothly and I was completely calm and not nervous at all - not even during the ceremony, weirdly enough! Everything and everyone were wonderful. And we're both really happy! It seemed like the most natural thing in the world. And we really enjoyed ourselves, too.
We arrived here at about 12:30 PM and were able to check right in. And we got our engagement room from last year, too! And Frank arranged to have a dozen red roses waiting for me in the room, with a really beautiful note. And just after we got to the room and started unpacking, a CM arrived with a single red rose and a certificate that said "This Magical Moment is courtesy of the Polynesian Resort - congratulations", for us! We had lunch at the Kona Cafe, then spent a few hours in the MK. All we really got to do there was ride IASW and then see the Country Bears - the place was PACKED! There was a 40 minute non-FastPass wait to get into the Haunted Mansion, which is our traditional second stop in the MK - I couldn't believe it! The Bears were packed, too - EVERYTHING was packed! But I was happy to see long lines at the classic attractions. After seeing what happened to CoP, I don't want to see that happen to any of my other childhood favorites! We had to leave the MK at a specific time, 'cause we had a PS at 'Ohana. Dinner was wonderful, as always - in fact, we saw the waiter who served us there exactly a year ago tonight, just before Frank proposed to me! We gave him a "WWWD" pin, since he took so much time to speak with us and make us feel at home, last year, and he was really surprised and overwhelmed! And the MC, who directs the children's coconut races and hula hoop contests told our story to everyone in the restaurant, over the microphone (I guess our waiter had told him that we were engaged here, one year ago today, and were married yesterday), and everyone applauded - pretty nifty!
Then we went out to the Barefoot Bar and had an amazing pina colada and watched the EWP, which looked wonderful as ever! It's so funny - I'm so used to seeing it on my videotape at home that I forget how vivid its colors are, when I see it in person- it really looked beautiful! Unfortunately, we missed Fantasy in the Sky - we assumed that it would start right after the EWP, but when we didn't see the fireworks by 9:30, we came back to the room. But then we heard them booming outside at 10:00! Oh well - we'll see them in the MK on Saturday night. We're going to the Studios, tomorrow!
OK - I'm rambling - I'm delirious - I haven't had any substantial sleep since Saturday night - sorry for going so off topic - I was just thinking of you all, being here in WDW, and wanted to say "hello"! Hope that all is well with all of you! Talk to you soon!
Hi, Lisa! Thanks for checking in! Sounds like you're having a magical honeymoon. May the magic continue!
