That's a good tip! I wouldn't have thought about that when switching resorts!
Do you think they painted the pool blue because of safety issues? Can you see the bottom better when it's blue? Maybe people thought it was dirty w/brown bottom. I haven't see it yet but it sounds more authentic with a brown bottom.
I have another tip for you when doing the
DDP and CL. DON'T! It's way too much food, and you might find yourself, like us, just not eating in the lounge or not going to our ADR's because we are too full. The breakfast part has proved useful, but we will end up going home with a few TS remaining and most of our CS and snacks remaining.
I'm not sure why they painted the bottom blue, but it sure looks
now. It kind of wrecks the whole swimming hole motif they had going. Now it looks like a regular pool. I also didn't think it was difficult seeing the bottom of the pool when it was brownish, but I know a lot of folks complained because they thought the pool was dirty.
Trying to decide if we want to upgrade or not. Are you doing the safari??? That's really the only reason I want to be on the CL!! Have a glass of Indaba for me!!!
We aren't doing the safari, I couldn't quite see us getting up that early to go. We tend to get up at the crack of 9:30 when at WDW.
I do really like CL here. I just wish AKL wasn't so far from the parks. I think I would love it if AKL's CL was moved to the Poly.
Here the upgrade in price is well worth the $$$ IMO. The breakfast offerings, evening and desert offerings are really quite good. And there is enough of a variety to please just about everyone. I think an upgrade to CL here is worth it, and would do it again here (and at BWI in a heartbeat).
My new favorite dessert is the Kenyan Coffee Tart. 
I followed my usual pattern of dessert first, then dinner, then a little bit more dessert.
