We're back our trip at CR! I miss it already lol. Our room was 4845 TPV. Last year and the year before we had 4846. Basically, everything stayed the same as the last 3 years that we've been going. The food is very good, especially the breakfast where we ate every morning .Loaded potatoes and Hash browns are so good! Rotation of food is every 3 days. We only did one lunch which is veggies, cheeses, crackers. hummus and snacks. We only did one dinner appy's(5-7) because we had dinner restaurants at all the parks. Nightime desserts were simliar as the years before. I only ate one night because the sugar keeps me awake. But, my DS,DIL and GD took full advantage of it every night. We had a tough time on Saturday morning finding a seat because it was packed. But, CR has added more seating outside of the lounge, plus another coffee station by the concierge desk.
Once again Courtney, Lou Ann and Troy were excellent! We had to change a dinner reservation that we couldn't do and Troy worked his magic.
CR surprised us with a beautiful plate of chocolates and a plate drizzled in chocolate, wishing us a Happy 54th Anniversary. They also added a colorful 5X7 picture of Mickey & Minnie with Happy Anniversary written on it.
No more peanut M&M's, now it's Snickers and Starburst. I did miss the M&M's
Also, I brought 25 ponchos and we never used one!!! No afternoon showers for us, it was unbelievable!!! We left them in the room from our housekeeper, Julianna (who is the BEST) We had her everyday except for her day off. We love her!! We did have one problem the day Julianna was off. The other housekeeper took off the sheets on the sofa bed and never made a new bed, just folded it up and added some of my GD stuffed toys. We had to call housekeeping at 8PM, they came up fast and even brought up more coffee for us.
Unfortunately, DH and I have had it with Disney in the summer. Just too hot for us now and I come prepared with a UV umbrella and my new turbo fan, plus a hat. We have done summers because DS and DIL are teachers. And, first time ever DH had to rent a scooter everyday. He has back issues that started on our second day at HS.
We do want to take our GS who just turned 2, but we will wait until he is 4 or 5..... but we will be able to go in cool weather.
We had a wonderful trip and I guess we won't be back for a while. My DS, DIL & GD are planning a Universal trip next summer.
