Countdown to Adventure *Pirate Style*CBR/CSR PICS!!

[cjackearl]

Hi! I'm enjoying your adventures with your adorable sons. I thought your user name looked familiar and then I saw the theme nights pictures. That thread is awesome and you posted some wonderful ideas. Can't wait to try some of them in preparation for our June trip.

Glad you enjoyed CB, but eww to the bathtub poo.

Sounds like your attitude about the rule breakers helped you guys to have a really great time.

Cool - Biergarten looks so fun!! What a fun night you had, and how lucky were you getting $35 on the Dining Card!! I love it when people pass on some happiness. I had to laugh at your comment about swords, lightsabers and all the weapons -- my boys have a closet full too. Aahh, the joy of boys. Enjoying your trip report so far.

I love your TR so far. I have 2 boys too who are 6 and 7. They're 13 mos apart so I always felt like they were twins. People who don't know us actually ask us if they're twins even though the older one is about half a foot taller than his little brother .

We're in the midst of planning our October trip staying at POFQ. It'll be our 3rd time but our first fall trip. We've always gone 1st week of May. Anyway, it would be so fun if we see you guys there. Are you planning to do MNSSHP?

Irish Twins!! I always thought that would be harder, because you would just have gotten one potty trained, then have to start all over with the other-or any of the other milestones! At least with twins, we could do it all at once
Thanks for reading! We loved POFQ-it is so pretty! Unfortunately, we are doing MNSSHP in 2010, it seems like such a long time to wait

We DID love CB!! They took care of the poo ASAP, but I was
Thanks for saying hi!!

Yeah-they literally filled the suitcase, I was glad I had brought another bag for checked luggage, just in case! When we were at supper at Biergarten, I heard them telling the lady at the next table that "we have lots of weapons at home!" She was like..."okay..."

Looking forward to more!

Thank goodness for my early risers! Now this is the only time I will say this, as on an average Saturday morning, the 6 a.m. wake up is NOT appreciated We were at the park pre rope drop and got to see the opening "show" at each park. I am glad I had my big shades on, because, yes-I cried as the train chugged into the station. "Good Morning, GOOD morning " Loved it!

Our SOP was to hit Buzz first, then get a fastpass for later. We then headed to the 2 mountains that were open, rode, and got another fastpass. We did quite a bit of crisscrossing the park, but we never waited more than 10 minutes for anything and it was great! Oh, and the teacups...BlechhhhI took a couple of pics, then covered my eyes for the rest. (This coming from the girl who jumped out of an airplane..but those spinning cups...!)

We had lunch at Cosmic Rays, which I haven't been to in FOREVER. I kept reading about the lounge singer, but couldn't picture him. I was thinking more robot (ala Timekeeper) than alien.

The boys were so fearless-it is so funny to watch them ride the coasters with their arms up in the air the whole time.

We had a great day at MK. I had a Dole Whip, the boys had frozen lemonade,and I talked to more strangers
We headed back to CBR and enjoyed the pool and beach again. More pics to follow!

I know I said it before-but we just loved this resort! I know we will be back and I am so glad we experienced it.

The kids meals at OPR came in sand buckets with shovels, so those were great for the beach. I loved how each village had it's own beach and playground! And we could see the Illuminations fireworks from OPR-it was so cool!

Oh am I loving this trip report! We are heading to CBR in a Pirate room the end of June. I have not told my boys(6 & 3) about the room, I figure it will be their surprise! Question for you about the buckets and shovels, do other guests leave them so the other kids can play with them? We were recently at BC and there were a ton of those green buckets and shovels everywhere for the kids. They loved it and I was wondering if it was the same there, or if I had to covet them when we purchased them?

 

[cjackearl]

Love the pictures of the boys at the pool and beach. Looks like they had a blast!

Amelia, my middle child, got a meal in a sand bucket at TL last trip that she thought was DA BOMB! I'm pretty sure we left the bucket. It would have been very hard to take on the plane.

 

[my2disneyboys]

I love the pics of CBR!! We were going to stay there but we LOVE the boat to DTD from Port Orleans. After seeing your pics though I am considering it for the October 2010 trip!!

Hi!!
I never noticed any buckets and shovels around. With the exception of tons of towels at the big pool, I never saw things laying around or community toys. The did have sets of cute sand toys at the resort gift shop and DTD that seemed fairly compact.
Have fun at CBR-it is so nice. People say a "vacation within a vacation" and I totally agree!!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello
Yeah-the bucket went into the suitcase with all the weapons Now I look at the buckets sitting on the kitchen counter, thinking "WHY did I bring these home...?"

Good morning Nickie!

We loved POFQ when we stayed there, too!! Your boys would love the Pirate Room, I bet!

I am keeping the fingers crossed for Poly next time, but that will totally depend on an AWESOME code

Have a good weekend

We will have to bring our matching tablecloths and have a DisMeet

I took the boys to the Neverland Club one night, and walked around a bit at the Poly and just. It is so beautiful!

We got to DHS waaaaayyyy early (didn't realize it was so close to CBR). We were right up at the turnstiles and got to the park to wait ahead of the pack. They did the little preshow, stressed "no running", and BAM-we were off to TSMM. Run!! Run!! oh, that just drove me crazy-but whatever! We got there and got in line. There were CM's yelling "your whole party must be together, you will not be able to join your party in line!" We walked through the queue-very cute!! I just loved this attraction-it is so hard to describe, and make it sound as fun as it is. We got done and got FP for later. The return time at 9:20 was 12:15-1:15, if memory serves.

Greg had asked the boys to give ToT another chance, which they did. They had no desire to do it again..

Rock n' Rollercoaster was another story. They just made the 48" mark (and were measured-and remeasured each time) and LOVED it! The CM's seemed a little about checking the safety harnesses-I was behind them yelling "push up on the harness!! Push up! Is it secure??. I spent the whole ride imagining one of them whirling off into one of the neon signs. RNRC is the new fave!

We had lunch at Sci Fi. The boys got giant Oreo Milkshakes with their lunches. We have been here before, but this time they were freaked out by some of the movie clips..Sometimes, I just don't get what makes them tick. Anyway, our server was so-so. Here is our Sci Fi pic that is fit to post:

Up next:Jedi Training Academy and Prince Caspian

 

[cjackearl]

I seriously fear being trampled on our way to TSMM, so glad to hear your experience was pretty positive. I can't wait to give it a try!
We enjoyed Sci Fi last trip, but weren't able to get a ressie this time. Sorry your CM wasn't so into his role.
