Congrats!!! I wish we were going tomorrow. Have a great and magical time.

Thats another thing I just noticed about the CMs at the call centers. They dont say have a magical day anymore. I mean I may get one or two every so many calls for dinner reservations. But not like there used to be.

ADR day is such a nice milestone!!!! I'm so psyched we got all of ours, nothing to do but sit back and wait for July!!!

So excited for your family, are you and hubby doing any special dinner for your 10th? DH and I are trying to figure out where we want to eat for ours!

The pool will be open, but the pool slide will shut for 4 weeks starting February 6th. I posted an email from WDW that I received yesterday about it under another thread. I also spoke with a WDW representative today who confirmed the info. They will run pontoon boats to the GF for people that want to use a pool slide.

While this is frustrating, and part of me wishes I had known this when I booked, it isn't even to dampen my excitement about staying at the Poly!!!

Hope that everyone who's leaving soon has a magical trip! We're off in three weeks!!!!

I think at first I was disappointed but when I heard we could use the GF pool and slide I was

So now I am completely excited,!!! 16 days left!!!!

Carl lovel shot as usual! I can't wait to be there. Only 187 more days! I think we're going to try AKL fo 4 nights before we have 8 at the Poly.

Magnificent!!!! Go for it! We split Poly/AKL in summer 2010 and if was fabulous. The only change we would have made was we would have done AKL first.

Aloooooooooha!

I can finally without any hesitation say we will be returning to the Poly in June.

Can't wait to get my first glimpse of the castle, have my first sip of Ku'ulei punch and just let it all soak in

We ended up booking California Grill for our date night!!! The girls will go to the Neverland Club, which they are super excited about!!! It will be nice to have a night in Disney alone...which we haven't had since our honeymoon 10 years ago!!!

Nice! We used the Neverland Club in Sept and the girls loved it! We were at Epcot in no time, had dinner at Via Napoli, and and walked around exploring with an adult beverage!! I was a little stressed about leaving them but this trip I will relax completely knowing how much they loved it there.
Not sure where we will be eating yet...

I have looked at AKL but we use Disney transportation to get to the parks. My patience runs thin with the buses. That's a very long holiday!! 12 nights!!

Good morning Carl. Thanks for a beautiful shot!

Thank you my friend. I was a little disappointed cutting off my friends ear but it's nice seeing my wife REALLY enjoying the characters.

Every year my wife and I book the California grill for our date night! Your gonna love it. Also just to let you know, no matter what time your reservation is at California grill you can go up on that night and watch the fireworks. Even a lunch reservation! Just make sure you keep your receipt from the meal.

Anyone notice how much easier it is to book the good restaurants with the new requirements? No more "piggie" people making reservations they aren't going to keep! I don't mind giving a CC to hold my reservation.

I called the reservations # after I booked my flights to give flight info, but only my inbound info showed up online so I called again they said they updated it, then nothing showed up so I called again and they had outbound info wrong so said they fixed it, but got travel docs today and no flight info .
