Wendy, I really hope you can convience your husband for Kona. It is great!!! It is much better the Ohana's. Their food is so fresh and the presentation is beautiful. If you go make sure someone orders the Kiddie Cone. I ordered it for my DH as a surpise (he didn't know what it was) and he just loved it. Of course he is a big kid himself.

Oh, on the way out we saw a bridal party having their dessert and all had Kiddie Cones. Great photo moment and so much fun. The look on the brides face was so cute.

Hi Angel,

I think I've pretty much got him convinced to try it!!! You girls and your descriptions are doing a good job!!!! I LOVE the Poly, so any reason to go over there is a good one!!! I'll have to get DS one of those kiddie cones!!! Thanks

Thank you all for the Congrats!

After we got engaged DFi actually broke the news that he was orignally going to propose when I go to Disney in June. (If you all remember he was suppose to go on the trip with me but can't) So the "story" is not as impressive as that would have been. I was getting ready for bed and went walking into the bedroom and there was DFi looking all goofy and going on and going about how much he loved me. (you know all that mushy stuff). He reached behind him and grabbed a box and opened it and there was "The Ring." After that I was in such shock that it is all kinda blurry. Sounds wierd but I was totally surprised but he asked me to marry him, I thought it was going to be later this summer. I asked him if he was joking and then said yes. Of course there was more mushy stuff said and we were engaged!

I now have him considering a Disney Wedding...I have always dreamed of one. I started going to Disney when I was 3 and it is my favorite place to visit and I am never tired with it. I told him we could even get married at AKL, he loves it there.

Kimmar ~ I am glad to see your AKL ticker is back!!!

My ticker is moving so quickly only 16 days!

Hi everyone!

As soon as DH and DS leave for work and school this morning I'll be adding the AKL pictures to my web page

I have a question though... I'm strongly considering changing our resort for our August trip (just staying 2 days after our Disney cruise). Currently we're booked at the Grand Floridian in a concierge room, but we loved the AKL so much that I'm thinking of changing the reservation now! I'm just wondering what the exact room configurations are. I called last evening and got a not-so-pleasant CM. She sounded very irritated because apparently I was asking for a room that doesn't exist. LOL I thought that since the WL deluxe rooms have 2 queen beds plus a daybed, that AKL did too. And I guess this is incorrect. The deluxe rooms at AKL only have a queen, bunk beds, and a daybed?? There aren't any rooms with 2 queens and a daybed? I don't want a suite. Well anyway, I'm thinking that if there aren't any deluxe rooms that have what I want, maybe we'll just get a regular room.

You bad, bad, bad, bad, ba-a-a-a-a-d, girl.... ...Now I have "...Holiday Ro-o-o-o-oa-a-a-a-d, Holiday r-o-o-o-o-a-a-a-a-a-d..." stuck in my head....

The pix are absolutely AWESOME! Can't wait for the food ones.....

Terry,

Thanks for all the great pics! Every time I hear your vacation music, I dance in my chair.

I just wanted to say that the only time we've had the chest of drawers near the entry door is when we were staying in an end room. When you have three or four people in a room, staying for a week or longer, it comes in handy. I wish the Lodge had them in every room.
