Hi everyone!!!! We had a great day today. We slept in a bit and didn't head over to EC until 10:00. We had some cloud coverage with some sun in and out so it felt so much cooler. We actually spent about 5 hours at EC which is unusual for us in the summer. We usually do 3 tops and then head back around 6ish for the evening. Anyway.....it did seem more crowded than Sat. Not bad though. We managed to get fast passes for Soarin, but could not get another fast pass until 12:12 so we had to wait until after our DELICIOUS LUNCH AT LE CELLIER to get another set. We did ride Figment and Nemo and then headed to Norway right at 11:00 but when we got there the ride was down so they gave us fast passes to use later. So we strolled around until it was time for our ressie. We were seated immediately. It was so yummy. I love the cheese soup there. Their chocolate "moose" 
(mousse) is my fave. The kids love the different bread sticks especially the pretzel bread. We had great service, a wonderful meal and full tummies when we were done. OKAY STUFFED!!!!! 
Hubby went ahead to Test Track to get fast passes for us to use later tonight. We met up at Soarin and asked for the 1st row again. Love the top row!!! Then we hit Spaceship Earth and missed a brief rain shower. 
Hit Norway on our way out and headed back to BCV after stopping at UK to buy our 15 year old son his Liverpool soccer shoes and new soccer ball. Last summer he got shoes and a ball in France. He plays high school soccer.
When we got back we quickly changed into our swimsuits so we could spend a couple of hours or so at SAB for the last time. LOVE THAT POOL. We had so much fun. I love the games. We played Name That Tune. That was a lot of fun. WE LOST!!!!
Our youngest played water volleyball. Oh apparently there was a small SNAKE OVER BY THAT LITTLE WATERFALL!!!!!
Glad I wasn't the one to find that. 
We went back over to EC for counter service dinners about 6:45. Then we used our Test Track fast passes from earlier. I am assuming the ride must have broken down at some point..THOSE FAST PASSES BECAME SLOW PASSES and there was a long line outside for the fast pass line. It took us about 35 min. to get inside the ride to where we were about to board a car. After that we were all TIRED...SO WE hit Japan for Japanese candy. (We lived in Japan for 4 years in the mid 90's so we love some of their goodies) Then it was HOME SWEET HOME. We skipped Illuminations since we saw it twice earlier in the trip.
We have been packing/organizing stuff tonight....moving to AKV Kidani tomorrow. Our friends already moved over today. THEY LOVE IT THERE. They really like that pool too. So I guess I will start a LIVE REPORT from there, but we are only there 2 nights.
Had a nice time here at BCV. If I had it to do all over again.....WE WOULD HAVE SKIPPED POLY and still done a split, but maybe a 5 nights here and 4 at AKV. A 3 way split of 2, 5 and 2 is not GOOD. Never again. I am pretty sure 2 nights is not going to be enough at AKV Kidani....... our other home.
I hope that everyone going to BCV in the next couple of months....has a wonderful trip. IT is truly an amazing resort. I am so happy that we have been able to stay here two summers in a row.

So it seemed pretty easy? And the upgrades come with a free checked bag????? Do tell?! I am HOPING as of right now that I can pack us in 1 carry-on each and ONE large checked bag for the rest of everything else!
Yes! One checked bag for all 3 of us for 10 days!!
DH will kill me if I take more than that now that we have the Owners Locker!!! Packing less was part of the OL deal ya know!
We are staying at BWV for our after Thanksgiving trip. Looking SO forward to it! We're also flying AirTran and I was wondering what the deal was with the free upgrades if you wouldn't mind sharing. Thanks a bunch.
