Our MagicBands came today

So excited for you. Can't wait to use ours on Oct. 4th at POP. Still wishing it was the Poly this trip but it's just me and the kids for a couple of days. We will be back at the Poly in December.

2 1/2 weeks until we check in to the Poly! We are planning on attending the 10/14 MNSSHP party and I got to thinking about the monorails - are they still running that late? I know at one point they stopped running the monorails past 11, even if you were staying at a monorail hotel. Curious if that was still the case. TIA!

8 days now until our trip, so excited

I see they have changed the park hours while we are at WDW 10-3 10-12. They have either extended night time hours by one or two hours. I am guessing that, WDW is predicting more people, so they extended the hours right?

We are following easywdw.com's touring plans and plan on coming back to the Poly for a mid-day break everyday. We are looking forward to the CL lounge offerings and watching Wishes from the beach.

We haven't been to the Poly since 2008, so I am looking forward to the new room decor.

We were at MNSSHP last night and when we left at about 11:30 pm or so the monorails were running.

I got a Polynesian Resort coffee mug in 2012 that I would like to replace. Does anyone know if they still have resort themed merchandise? I will be there in a couple of weeks, and hope to pick one up!

I was just there September 5-9 and looked all over for those mugs but never saw them.
They do still have some other resort themed merchandise.

Is the pool heated at the poly? Going in November and want to know if we should pack our swimsuits. Our youngest is severely disabled and doesn't handle cold water well so it really would have to be heated. Thx in advance!

Shameless ticker posting

I am just hoping that I stay healthy! EVERY vacation I get sick the first couple of days or right before. DH says I stress out too much and he's right. Just got to get through next week - an entire week in Phoenix for work. No matter how much I disinfect the area around me on the plane, or cover my mouth with a scarf as to not breath in the germs, I will end up next to the person with the nasty cough. And of course I need to sort out all the transportation for the kids for school and sports so DH doesn't worry. And load up the house with food and prepared meals. And get all the laundry done and the house clean and the cat shampooed and the litter box cleaned. And that last minute rescheduled soccer game on Sunday night that I got asked to bring snacks to at the last minute. And just got a call from my son's teacher - 3rd call this week. Ugh...yup, might get sick again...

I'm getting stressed just reading this lol - I know we women think we have to do it all, but get the kids/hubby to help with the prepared meals, it could be fun. Don't know what the 3rd teacher call is about, but if he's in trouble, cleaning the cat box seems fitting
