After sleeping comfortably in our double bed
,we get up and DH tells me he is not feeling well.Oh, no this is not good, after doing MVMCP the night before I had planned to sleep in and rent bikes and a boat at POR.If DH is sick it could only mean that we would be spending our last full day in the room
.So,once again I forget about going to Boatwright for breakfast and head to the food court.It was once again, a lovely walk where I saw lots of smiling faces.I guess POR brings the best of people, we did not encounter any rude people at the resort at all.Everyone was very friendly and I got a lot of good mornings on the way to breakfast.I get back to the room and DH is still sleeping I bring him some OJ and he drinks it and goes back to sleep. I consider going out and renting a bike ,but, I guess that would have been cruel.What did DH have?? Well, it looked like the symptoms of a common cold
. I immediately bring out my portable Pharmacy I had Aleve, Tylenol PM, Advil migraine, Immodium (well,you never really know),Benadryl,Bandaids,Multivitamins,night time cold medicine and Robitussin.Yes, I had forgotten the regular cold medicine, I bring the entire contents of my first aid kit ,enough to cure at least 7 other illnesses and I forget to bring something for the "common" cold. I make DH choose between my wonderful assortment of medicines and he decided that Aleve seemed to be the right choice to battle his "terrible" illness.Once again, I consider abandoning DH and going shopping at Downtown Disney while he fights this terrible Illness, but, I felt guilty once again and I remember my wedding vows "For better or for worst, in sickness and in health".Did I say I promised or did we skipped that part at our wedding??? I'm pretty sure I promised ,we should have made our own vows,well it's too late now,so, I stay in the room nursing him.
Don't forget that Tinkerbelle was working overtime with us and something great came out of this whole ordeal.During the 3 hours that this whole ordeal lasted, we watched all the Disney channels and he started to get curious about DVC and Mission Space.I explained to him how DVC worked and he told me that it sounded interesting and that we should look into buying DVC.Wonderful right?? I'm not done,he tells me he wished we had one more day ,so, that we could go to Epcot to ride Mission Space.He,he,he.....sounds like my mission has been accomplished!!!
At that moment, our housekeeper knocks on the door and I tell her that she doesn't have to worry about making up our room,since, DH is sick.I also thank her for the towel animals and I tell her how I had heard about them ,but, had never gotten them before.She tells me that she loves to do them and she tries to leave them every time.She also asks me if we needed anything , I tell her no that we were fine and she keeps insisting that I should ask her for something. Fine, since she insisted I asked her for soap and pulls out a plastic bag and puts about 6, yes, 6 Mickey soaps and about 8 bottles of shampoo
. I thank her give her a tip , close the door and go into the Mickey soap dance overload
which by now has developed into a careful choreographed routine that includes a couple of jumps ,two spins and my goofy movements. DH loves my new and improved Mickey dance even more and decides to get up and shower ,so, that we can leave the room. Thank you, Pixie Dust!!!!
We decide to go to Downtown Disney and on our way to the boat DH spots the rental boats.We look at the rates while we wait and DH says that he feels bad for ruining our plans and tells me that we will be back in a few months (YES!!!) and we'll do what we didn't do today. We really enjoyed our ride on the boat to DD ,saw for the first time POFQ and the Tree house Villas which DH didn't even know existed(something different #1).At DD we decide to eat at Wolfgang Puck express and order a 4 cheese pizza to share.This pizza is heavenly ,you can really taste the goat cheese and the fontina. Yummm!! (something different #2)We had a wonderful time and on our way back I decide to get our nieces a couple of Princesses towels. I pick them up and DH takes them from my hand and says that he needs to pay for them , I ask him why and he just laughs.After he pays for them ,he tells says deja vu and I ask him what was he talking about and he tells me that he had a dream about two weeks ago that he would be buying princesses towels at DD. Huh??? He says , that he saw this exact situation happen in his dream , so , he had to pay for the towels, it was his destiny. Well, how can I argue with destiny?? Weird right?? Very weird!!!(something different #3) We get to ride the boat back to POR by ourselves and it was really relaxing.
At POR,while getting ready for our dinner at Tchoup- Tchop DH tells me the most wonderful words that I had ever heard come out of his mouth ...we should stay another night....Yes!!!!! I immediately pick up the phone and call the front desk to see if our room is available and I get this angel ,I think her name was either Andrea or Angela.I tell her we wanted to stay another night and she tells me our room is available *Pixie dust,Pixie dust* .Great, but, I remembered that we had my airline discount rate for the room and at that point I knew they could not honor it,but, I ask anyway *Pixie dust,Pixie dust* my angel says that she was sorry ,but, she could offer me the extra night at the regular rate.Oh,no oh,no I could not make DH pay rack rate for that extra night I almost started to cry at that moment...At this point Tinkerbelle intervenes and sprinkle me with so much Pixie dust that she almost blinds me and I ask my angel if there was a supervisor that I could speak to about this.They did have the room available for that night , I was willing to pay my package rate, My angel tells me she will get her supervisor and after 4 minutes (which seemed like an eternity) she comes back and tells me they will honor my rate for that extra night.It was then,that I started to cry , I told her she had made my Christmas and she did, she really did.
We had a wonderful time that night ,we went to the lobby to change our keys and I saw Bob Jackson.I tell DH excited, he's famous , he's famous and DH ask he's famous where?? and I say at the boards.He looks at me and laughs.We did the Hokey Pokey and sang B-i-n-g-o.That Bob what a character!! (something different #4) I slept like a baby that night, we had an extra day at Disney. I was a lucky,lucky woman with tons of Pixie Dust!!
