We are here!! Checked in yesterday CL TPV got a fabulous 1st floor room! No problems with our room. The problem we had was checking In!! If you are CL do not do online check in! For some reason they were disorganized beyond comprehension! I missed walking into the Hawaii building sitting down and checking in! You really lose something when you do online check in! Other than that not a problem at all! I woke to watch the sun rise on the beach.

Anything you guys wanna know. Just ask I find out if I don't know!

So, I guess you received the correct information. They made you do check-in out front at the online check-in line rather than your personal check-in? I had heard that you shouldn't do online check-in if staying CL, now we know the reason.

Glad to hear you have a great room. You'll have to let us know the number when you finish your stay. :thumbsup2 How goes life with an ECV?
 
Hello fellow Poly lovers! We will be back at "home" on June 16th and I hope I can get some more good photos/video to post here on the thread. It looks like we will be there at the same time Tess. Maybe I will see you again :)

Well to start with as we arrived we went to valet to get someone to help with luggage while my wife balanced on crutches. I told them had a ecv they checked and came back with "there isn't one waiting" I tell them we will need assistance with golf cart to get her to Hawaii. They say " you HAVE to go to o line check in at front desk before we can help you with golf cart!" hmmmm!!! Okay! I go in to check in at front desk (because I have to) and right next to the front desk is an ECV with my wifes name on it!! Hmmm... I could not wait to get to Hawaii..

Cannot stress enough about CL online check in... DON'T DO IT!!

ECV is okay in the parks.. But you cannot be in a hurry!!
 
carlnix30,

Can't wait to hear about Summer Nightastic! Please give us an update after you see it. So glad you got a great room!
 

Hi Polynesian friends! :)

We have changed our ressie from the BC to the Poly so I'm joining in over here! We last stayed at the Poly in 2008 in a CL/LV room :lovestruc but this time we're booked in a garden view (sniff, sniff) Actually, I'm very happy to be there, the resort is beautiful and gv will be fine! It's just hard to go back after staying CL, it spoils you!! lol

We are celebrating our 30th anniversary during this trip. Our original plan was to go back to Hawaii, but since that didn't work out, we will stay at the next best thing!

I'm looking forward to seeing Summer Nightastic and Main St. Electrical Parade. And Lava Flows at the pool bar!

Is anyone going to be there at the end of July?

I hope you have an awesome time! One question: Can you check out the Polynesian logo clothing and items in Bou-Tiki? I'm so hoping that they have some items instead of the plain white with navy blue writing. :rolleyes1

This is very good to know!! :thumbsup2

Tess, have a wonderful time. :sunny: I wish we were there at the same time, but we have to wait another 4 weeks!
 
WooHoo!! Just got of the phone with the most helpful CM...he helped me add on the vacation insurance (you can never be to sure in Sept with all those hurricanes) and he helped me add on the DDP to my Poly CL...

I know im worried about it being too much food but the few ressies we do have are all signature dining so hopefully we wont be too stuffed by the end of the week...either that or hubby will be wheeling me out of the CL lounge :rotfl:

only 105 more days!!

Aloha friends :goodvibes

I hope everyone is enjoying the start of summer?? Things are crazy here in our world with all that is going on and I feel bad that I am neglecting you all here! I have to admit, after we cancelled our trip and I saw the credit on our credit card (we had already paid it in full) I just about bust into tears :sad1: Life is always so much easier when planning a Disney vacation. We had a wonderful trip in Colorado and was I sad to come home to reality :sick:

Well, we are getting our ducks in a row here. Lots of appointments and paperwork. On top of my woes, my parents finally sold their house after 4 years on the market and have to be out by 6/15 :scared1: It could not have come at a worse time but I am so happy they finally sold. Now it has been a mad scramble to find a new, smaller place and we need to get their house of 30+ years packed up :sad2: It has been hard to feel sorry for myself with all this going on :confused:

So today my wonderful DH and I had some alone time to talk and he told me to go ahead and book for spring 2011 and plan for Disney's new Hawaii resort in the summer of 2012 to celebrate my 40th! I am over the moon excited :dance3: I have already contacted my travel agent but she may have gone out of business because of my craziness :lmao: To think we originally had three trips planned for this year and are not even going on one!:sad2: I still hang on a little hope that we may be able to take a small trip in late Oct/Nov but I have no idea what the next few months will bring for us so I am not making any bets! In anycase...I made myself some tickers :cool1:

Thanks for letting me spill what has been spinning thorugh my mind and share my excitement! I miss you all :grouphug: I promise to be more active once life settles down a bit.

Happy travels to everyone and wishing you all lots of pixie dust pixiedust:

You know, I just looked at your ticker, Tess, and realized that while I'm not staying at the Poly, I'll be at the GF around the same time you're at the Poly! :goodvibes We have a few dining reservations at the Poly, plus DD has two stays scheduled at the Neverland Club. Perhaps we'll run into each other. :thumbsup2

SeaSpray, just read what happened with your hubby. :hug: Hope all is settling down for you guys.

Woo hoo, another member of the 'Going to Ko Olina' club. :banana: I so hope you get to go.

I so agree that life is easier when you're planning a Disney trip. :goodvibes I'm glad you had a good trip to Colorado. :)

Congrats on your plans to visit Disney in Hawaii!!!! :sunny:

SeaSpray, just read what happened with your hubby. :hug: Hope all is settling down for you guys.

Thanks you. :hug: He's doing well considering what he went through. He's expected to make a full recovery, but it will take a while. He has quit smoking, and we're eating a much healthier diet now. In 4 weeks when we get to WDW, we'll have to be careful when we dine at our favorite places. And we'll probably split a lot of our favorites, such as Tonga Toast (his favorite) and the pineapple macadamia pancakes (my favorite). LOL I just can't wait to get there and escape the real world for a few days. LOL :cloud9: Have a great time on your trip!! :cool2:

Hiya! :goodvibes We live in Ambler!

We'll be at the GF from June 17th - June 24th. We arrive in Orlando on June 15th but we're going to visit relatives in North Florida (Putnam County) for two days before heading to Disney. We're actually having dinner at Kona Cafe on the 18th and breakfast at Kona on the 19th. :thumbsup2 Maybe we'll see you guys!

Don't worry! We returned last week from our Poly CL stay with Dxdp. I was warned that it would be too much food.....was it lots of food? Certainly!!! But we loved it! Lots of our dinners were 2 credit TS meals. We ate most of our breakfast in CL lounge. You will be fine! Enjoy!!!!
 
Do you have to request the microwave before you get there or do you do it when you arrive. Stupid question, right? Sorry.

Hi! That is really a coincidence! Lucky you to live in King of Prussia, I LOVE the King of Prussia Mall. It does not feel like Christmas to me if we don"t go to KOP to Christmas Shop!
