ALOHA! The Poly FAQ: Fall 2010 Edition

[TxMickeyLover]

I have never posted a message here before so this is kind of a test. I am enjoying reading about everyone's Poly experiences while I wait impatiently for my upcoming trip.

to the Dis! We the Poly. When is your trip?

 

[MinandBills]

Thanks. My trip starts Feb 5th. I tried to put a countdown in my signature, but it didn't show up. Maybe it will this time.

When I was at the GF a few weeks ago I took a pic of the Poly from the lounge.

Then I went on the monorail to visit the Poly and to smell the lobby.

Just wanted to share!

I hope to pay a visit there in a few weeks, time permitting, just to enjoy the surroundings as well. Nice photos.

Great pics, thanks for sharing! I love this one! I have a lot of great pics of the GF taken from the Polynesian lounge, I've always wanted to see it in reverse!

Hello My son(14) and I will be at the POLY the same time!! We are staying Garden View Club Level and will be there Feb 5-10th!
It is our first time staying at this resort too....so neat knowing other Disser's will be there at the same time! Hope you have an amazing trip!

I'm so excited--I just heard from my best friend, whose mom is booking our trip for us (she's a travel agent), that due to a few happy circumstances, we'll be able to stay at the Poly when we go in March! It's been my dream to stay at the Polynesian forever.

Cant wait! In November we are staying at the Poly for the first time in 15 years! We have stayed at the WL, POP, POFQ, CR, CSR, and POR recently. We are excited to head back to the Poly!! Taking a first timer with us so it should be pretty awesome! Sending baskets to both rooms!

Love seeing pictures of the Poly

Sigh...5 days...

It was terrific--perfect weather and totally relaxing. There's a review on here somewhere. We're headed back for F&W in 19 days, but no Polynesian stay for us this trip--totally an EPCOT focused stay from BC.

How are you doing BCV--haven't seen you in a while?

I'm glad your trip was so perfect. When I have time, I'll try to go back and find your review. It was a busy summer here.

Well "hi" back! I see you are mixing it up a lot on your next one!

We are indeed. Can't wait. I started reading your trip report. Sounds like BWI was a hit, too. Loved the pics of the suites. Thanks for the photos of the Polynesian.

Hi BCV!! Great to "see" you! Have a wonderful time on your trip!

Hi! Thanks for the good wishes. How are you feeling?

Sigh...5 days...

On Saturday, I wanted to 'do' something but my husband had too much work to do and I didn't want to take the kids bowling by myself (just a lot of money to do it). So I decided I had the 'Disney' blues BEFORE we were going. The kids and I were BORED and wanted to DO stuff. So we ended up eating out on the deck for dinner and getting out the Disney maps and talking about all the rides. Then we measured them (both are above 48"!!!!) and talked about whether they would go on these bigger rides. Even my DH was talking about all the rides. THEN I showed everyone a picture of the Starring Rolls cupcakes on the Disney Food Blog and we were all drooling.

So yes, SIGH, 5 MORE days. But wow, ONLY 5 more days!!!!

5 days for you and you have the Disney blues, try 5 more months, thats Disney blues, but I did just back a month ago.... Have fun, I'm living vicariously, you know!

Hi! Thanks for the good wishes. How are you feeling?

I'm doing pretty well these days, thanks. Well, physically just so-so, but no point in complaining about that.

We went to WDW/Polynesian in July and had a wonderful time! It was the 4 of us, plus DS19's GF, and it was a blast (the family pic in my ticker is from that trip). It was just what I needed. Looking forward to your review when you get back!

 

[princessbee]

Disney blues are the WORST! I spend most of my time drooling over pictures of dishes on various Disney food blogs and listening to Disney Theme Park radio stations. Could my trip come sooner, please??

Just back from Poly. Stayed Club level for first time. Boy am I having a hard time focusing things.
