Yay!!!! Are you doing it the whole time, or still a split??? How exciting!!!!
Time to change the ticker!!!

Hi Mousemommy,

It is still a split. They can only get a few days off, so we'll visit and have a great time together at WL. :cool1:

After that, I'll be solo for a day at AKL, and then it will be time to fly home. :)

I am so glad I called!:banana:
 
:goodvibes You know what I've realized?! ..... I FEEL GOOD ABOUT MY RESORT! :goodvibes I go to the POLY thread and read how others are having an amazing time there, I see the beautiful pictures, I dream of myself walking around the tiki lit paths, chilling in the volcano pool, soaking up the ambience....I get those butterflies when I think about our stay! I think I made the right choice and I am excited about our stay!!! :cool1: that's how it should be, anticipation and excitement, and I am so glad I got that back again :goodvibes i have seriously stopped worrying about the chance of shabbiness in my room.....as long as my room is in good repair, clean and comfortable, I think we will be fine! I'm the type of girl who's happy at HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS! so I'm sure Disney will trump that hands down, :rotfl:
I feel warm and happy inside when I think of the POLY, I think that's when you know you've made the right choice :goodvibes

Yay!! Me too! It was when I read on the Poly thread about the movie on the beach and it just reminded me of 'that feeling' I had when we were there. It is amazing there and I love that feeling that you are really "somewhere else"! It takes me alot to relax and the Poly made me do that. I can't wait!:goodvibes

You guys are both going to have a lovely time there. I seriously get all warm and fuzzy thinking about the Poly. I was tearing up before thinking of how my DS enjoyed it so much in September and all the great memories we have there. One thing you just can't beat is watching Wishes from the pool. It's just such a magical place.

Oooohh from the pool! Never thought of that, we watched from the beach and the "point" with the kids, but the pool would be awesome! You know what i loved too, was watching the castle change color over and over...so magical. Your trip is getting closer!!

Everything about the Poly is so special. I don't understand how people can hate it. DS asks me everyday if we're really staying there thr whole time evade he can't believe he's getting to go for such a long trip. He absolutely adores the Poly. He especially loves the slide!!!

You are all bad for an RC'rs health!!! :crazy2:
 
:goodvibes:wave2: Peeps

Sheila: Sure hope you are feeling better! :hug:

Mousemommy: Glad you put the kibosh on another RC! WL CL is a perfect fit for you! Congrats on your FINAL RC (for this trip that is).

Jennyjinx3: :bday: (a day late) to your DD :cool1:

Gwynne: Congrats on getting WL CL for your upcoming trip! It always pays to keep calling CRO. ::yes::

Luv: Good for you on resisting the urge to splurge with the POLY!! Your POR RR and YC CL seems like a perfect fit for you both. Deena, really sorry about the job loss and the severance issue … and I'm very happy you kept your vacation plans.

Chimo2u: You SHOULD feel really good about the POLY, it is a very special resort. You and BFF will have an amazing time and the Poly will not disappoint. We really enjoy visiting and eating there every trip, O’hanas is a favorite, both the dinner and the Breakfast. I look forward to hearing all about your trip!

Of course I was reading a TR today and was overcome with the thought of a Christmas trip to GF

I just don't know what I want :rotfl:

:laughing: That's me too Sheila!!

Went ahead and pulled the trigger on changing from WL to AKL. I'm really, really excited! Now what to do with one more night??? Another resort, perhaps?

Congrats on your change to AKL (although both lodges are great). For your extra day? Of course, choose another resort!! Then you can keep changing it!!

Everyone be quiet today:ssst: - Jeanette worked till 0300 and she's on again for 1100 - so no changes today.........:lmao::laughing::joker:

:lmao: Without Jeanette, the thread is resistant to change!! So today we are Real Committed to our choices. :goodvibes
 
You are all bad for an RC'rs health!!! :crazy2:

No kidding! I'm already missing my Poly. Maybe I'll have to cut CR or GF and do a few nights there :scratchin But which to cut??? The GF has the construction, but the CR is a bad rate. :confused3

Great. Now I'm annoying myself with my inability to just make a choice and stick with it. :rolleyes2
 
These OB items were just announced and I can't wait to get them in August. The poster in my signature is available now, too:goodvibes

Quiet sounds good to me too. I was up until 4:30 am with what I think was a mild case of food poisoning. I am blaming the seafood salad I had at lunch yesterday. I was never so dizzy before in my life and minutes before we were going to head to the hospital I started throwing up :crazy2:

Long story short I laid on the couch next to my trusty bucket which came in handy a few more times my dizziness slowly easing to what is now a bad headache. I ate a few crackers and so far so good.

Bed rest sounds good to me today too.

Sleep pas :hug:
I hope that your symptoms have subsided by now and that you're able to rest and get your strength back, Sheila.

I almost changed POR to Poly. I was on the phone making a YC payment, while she was doing that, I was pricing Poly--and when she asked if there was anything else I needed... I started to stutter... but said no thank you. I can do a lot with $612. Then I looked at OKW--but then again... I can do a lot with $434. DH really wants POR, so I should just leave it. There's always another trip :scratchin
Good call and YES! There has to be another trip or else what in the world would we all do if we were currently planning our last trip - we'd be really clogging up the CRO lines with changes.

Hello Fellow Resort Changers,

Well, to make a long decision short, I still can't get WL out of my mind. When I booked the May trip I checked, but at that time they didn't have any rooms with the military rate available.
On a whim, I called this morning just to see if there were rooms available for our dates next month. GUESS WHAT??? I was able to get the two rooms I needed. :dance3:

I'm not going to tell my daughter and her fiance until the day before or so. I know they'll be so happy, will be fun to surprise them. :cool1:
And the icing on the cake is we have courtyard views. I love, love, that view. It is just wonderful to open the doors to the patio and enjoy!
Ahhh...Wilderness Lodge. I'm coming home! party:



I'll change my ticker later, I need to get some work done. :rotfl:
Congratulations (and isn't the military rate wonderful? I'm worried about what might happen to it after 9/30:worried:). Come on over to the WL thread sometime:surfweb:

I'm glad you're not having one bit of resort remorse. Oh, and CRO thanks you:worship:

Good one, Janet. I guess we're all on our best behavior - except for gwynne. But, I would have approved her change had she asked me::yes::

Oh, Kook, I've had my temptations :) but I truly think this is the best resort for this trip with -- 2 hungry teen boys and my BFF, I think the POLY CL lounge is perfect home base for all of us! :p
 
Checking in :wave2: Home at 4am (thanks for the well wishes Kook) 3 hours at the dr.s before work. Up at 9am in charge, stayed late. Class tomorrow :faint: Day shift Sat & Sun.....will I ever catch up????

Pas130 and Janet,
Thanks for the good wishes! I am glad I called.

Kook,
Those Orange Bird Items are adorable! I will be on the lookout.
I plan to pop over to the WL thread today. :flower3:

About my recent change to WL, I am so excited. It's not often that I get to surprise my kids these days. :cool1: The wedding is in the fall, and I know it will be busy then. I treasure the opportunity to have some time with them very soon.

Oh, Kook, I've had my temptations :) but I truly think this is the best resort for this trip with -- 2 hungry teen boys and my BFF, I think the POLY CL lounge is perfect home base for all of us! :p

Oh goodie! I wouldn't want to lose my new bosom pals!! And yes...when we get around to planning for May 2013, there will be much indecisiveness indeed!

Sending a shout out to all our Poly pals! :wave2: I look forward to hearing about your Polynesian adventures! We will book at Poly one of these days.
We haven't as yet, only because we had the opportunity to live on an island in the Pacific for a few years. Hubster thinks we've already had the Poly experience ,he's not sure if it will be the same. :rotfl:
I'll get him to go for a split stay on a future vist. That beach is calling my name. :cool1:
 
Happy Friday All :surfweb:

In less than 2 weeks I'll have an Orange Bird cup!! ((and maybe a hat, lol))
:beach:

I told DH that I almost switched to Poly. He asked why I didn't. I told him the difference in $$, and because he wanted the Royal Rooms. He told me I did the right thing because there's probably snakes at the Poly :rotfl: I have a severe phobia, and have been known to RC when a sighting comes out :lmao::rotfl2: Yes, I'm aware that they're everywhere--but still :confused3 I recall at least 4 sightings at POR--which is why I think I'm not 100% satisfied, lol. He knows how to push my buttons. He said that he's surprised we're not at CR.... to which I replied... if the discount was more than 5% we would totally be there. I should just be happy, and be sure to request "no mousekeeping" so that critters can't come in while they're cleaning. Ugh--I remember one TR where a frog was in a lady's makeup bag when she came back to the room :eek:

Sheila: Glad you got rest and are feeling better!
Pas: Hope you get some real sleep!!
Janet: Thanks :hug:
Everyone: :wave: Hi!!

Have a great weekend RC'ers!!
