Great report so far. I am excited to hear more.
I read the updates on the train ride home on my Iphone and somehow missed dinner at Captain Cooks (which we love) and your walking around the resorts. Great photos. If I didn't have my heart set on AKL for our 30th, I'd go back to the Poly in a heartbeat.
I love the update... Your room location looks spectacular! The food looks yummy - and the view... aaaahhhhh.... Sorry your little guy was scared by the lighting ceremony, but I bet the Poly was the perfect place for his first trip.
Can't wait to read more.

Great pics ! I'd love to stay at the Poly at some point .. it just looks so incredible .. but looking at pics will have to do for now !
Just got caught up...love all your photos! Makes us yearn for the Poly, and we can't wait to go back in Sept! We stayed in tokelau too, bottom floor, the one you said was booked. We loved it...we thought we would use the patio more, but didn't! We were either too tired or just walked out to the "point" to watch fireworks and then off to bed! Can't wait to read more!
Great report so far. I am excited to hear more.
Im in!! Can't wait to hear more!!
I love Captain Cook's! Definitely one of my favorite things about staying at the Poly. Great choice going to the Contempo Cafe for the cupcakes for dessert. They are absolutely divine! Oh, I miss them.
Loving your TR so far. I gotta say, your title reeled me in. And you are right, how are we supposed to go back to a world where we don't have fireworks every day? And furthermore, how are we supposed to go back to a world where we have to flush our own toilets? Ah ... the Disney blues. LOL. Looking forward to reading more about your trip.
Suzi, great updates. AK can be a little confusing on the first visit. I actually can find my way around that park better than the Studios now.
I love how they have all those little stops along the way for the kids to interact with the CM's and learn things. They had little of this when our boys were smaller.
And how could "Mom" not be excited about seeing Pooh, Eeyore and Tigger. They are my favorites and I got "special time" with Tigger last month.
Keep the great updates coming.
Great update.
I get what you mean about AK set up. It IS confusing ... I also feel the same about DHS . I can't seem to figure the layout no matter how many times I've been there !
Great updates! I hope your DS isn't starting to get sick!! Hopefully just a little upset tummy that went away! Those Mickey Waffles at Cap't Cooks are delish aren't they??? Can't wait to read more!
So.... far... behind!
Okay, I have to comment: You're braver than me for trying Dinosaur. DH and DD will ride it this year, and I'll go play with DS.
Your pictures are great! That stunk that Triceratops only went around 3 times.
Did your DS collect all the stamps at AK? It looks like they've added more props to the Pooh & Friends area. Glad you got to see them!!!! When we were there in 2009, they had some props, but they were scarce, and you had to stand just right for them to appear in the pictures.
Just found your TR. How much fun are you all having on your first family trip?!
I too have a 5yr old Brady. Although my kid is known to throw his temper around a bit But usually not at WDW.
Don't quote me on this but I think the EWP ends over by the Poly so it would be awhile after the fireworks before you saw it. When we stayed at the WL we were able to see it pretty soon after Wishes.
So fun to read we are getting very excited!
The toilets! I don't know if they are all like the Poly, but when we flushed ours in our room I thought my eardrums would burst. My son was so scared the first time he did it, that he wouldn't touch the flush ever after that
