I can't remember seeing anything but I could have missed evidence. Ladies? Chim Chim? Bubbles? Rafiki?
Weren't there four monkeys???I can't remember seeing anything but I could have missed evidence. Ladies? Chim Chim? Bubbles? Rafiki?
You move fast!!Helps when you are right there! They weren't set out yet so I had to ask the front desk. I am home now so I can scan in a copy instead of just the photo.
Thanks! We are 10 days out tomorrow I think, so maybe we will get an email then
That's fantastic!!Hi everyone. I am home now from my Beach Club escapades. My Three Amigos are continuing on to the new Poly villas for a couple of days. Here is the post from our good friend Ninja Mom:
"I love to joke around with the Disney Resort staff that my room request to have Matthew McConaughey waiting in the room for me when I check in is never met. Usually the staff reminds me that requests are just that, requests and that they can't always be met. Well today at check in we must have just missed Matthew ; ) and the staff at the resort left us a little consolation gift. MAHALO Polynesian staff, Mahalo... well done! P.S be sure to read the text on the card in the picture."

Aloha Ladies,
We just couldn't get Matthew McConaughey to make an appearance so we went the next best thing- chocolate!

Lily is so beautiful! I will be stepping foot in the Beach Club for the first time on Feb. 12, 2016, I really hope to meet Teena and tell her how beautiful Lily is!Lily's Pad:
I know a lot of you are new to the thread- there is a lot of history here and a lot of great friendships made in past versions of this thread, but I want to introduce Teena to anyone who doesn't know her (yet).
Teena is a greeter in the lobby of the Beach Club
Look for her on Sundays and Mondays unless she and Bob are on one of their treasured cruises to Castaway Cay or out visiting her two shining lights in Vegas, her daughter Jeanne and her first grandchild, Lily born in July 2011.
Hours, 2015:
Here is a link to some pictures when Teena was presented by Disney execs with an award from President Obama in May 2011 for helping out so much at Jeanne's school:
Presidential Award, May 2011
Presidential Award, 2013:
We were all eagerly awaiting "Peanut's" arrival in the months leading up to July and even had some fun, friendly competition to guess her birthdate and whether she was a Princess or a Pirate.
Lily's arrival was a very special moment for our beloved Teena in a year that has been tough due to some health issues. She bravely shared what she was going through with all of us, once again, in an attempt to help others who may be facing similar challenges.
Teena has faithfully posted on this board and has helped us all gain great knowlege about these resorts, so many of us who hang around here can now also answer the questions that are posted here.
I will occasionally post the photos she provides to me, because, well, Teena may know everything there is to know about the Beach Club but she don't know beans about technology!
Trip Report: Lily Goes Live: A Princess' First Visit to Her Kingdom (And More!)
This report follows Lily's first visit to WDW, plus trips to the Beach Club, Disneyland and MORE!
Princess Lily!!!
Disney (and the Beach Clubs) newest princess has arrived:
Lillian (Lily) Grace
Born 7/11/11, 7:59 am
6 Lbs, 11 oz, 20 inches
Please note that Lillian is a name truly worthy of Disney royalty as this was the name of Walts wife.
It also goes without saying that 7 come 11 is a great date for a baby born in Las Vegas!
Congratulations to Jeanne and Brian and to proud Nanny Teena and Pop Pop Bob!
Lily at 2 weeks old:
Lily at 3 months old:
Lily's First Halloween- Disney-style of Course:
Lily and her parents were first place winners in the Best Group Costume Category.
Teena's grandaughter is an adorable Dalmation!

Lily, October 2012
From Teena, June 2013:
Jeanne said Lily FINALLY likes princess stuff. She was not into the princesses at all but Jeanne got so tired of her watching the parades (a friend taped them onto a DVD for her), Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Jake the Pirate, that she started putting Disney movies in the DVD player. She started with Cars and Nemo and after being sick of them being played over and over again, Jeanne put in Beauty and the Beast. OMG ... she loved it after the first hour of crying for Nemo. And when Belle dances around, Lily dances around.
I had purchased a bunch of princess dresses (of course) and one of them (the green one) is there in Vegas and the rest are here since I figured Jeanne would want her to wear them when we visit WDW. She has shown it to Jeanne but Jeanne had no interest in frilly things .... UNTIL NOW. Apparently she pointed to it after the second time of "dancing" to Beauty and the Beast and screamed "mama, mama, put on". So on it went and she danced and danced and danced. So we now have an official Disney Princess!!!!!

Jeanne, Teena and Lily:
BTW- Kudos to Cinderumbrella (July 10) and 333disneymom (July 12) who came closest in the "Is Peanut a Princess or a Pirate" pool-
Honorable Mention goes to BCV23 for having the correct date (July 11), but the wrong gender!
I can't remember seeing anything but I could have missed evidence. Ladies? Chim Chim? Bubbles? Rafiki?
Abu, Bubbles, Chim Chim or Rafiki, I was curious if you were ever successful in making any inquiries to the status of the refurbishment work (or lack thereof) on the Dark Side or in the Villas? Also, were you ever successful in locating that elusive telephone book for your room? Thank you for taking us along for the weekend.
