Some of you might find this kind of funny. So I'm sitting in my GF room and all the sudden I can hear the band down stairs playing the music from the Cantina in SW out of nowhere. You should have seen the smile that was on my face when that happened and I was thinking yep this is how it should be.

They closed the line at 7:30 last weekend. No C3PO or R2D2

Great to hear. I'm really looking forward to my 545 pm dinner slot there on Sunday.

Well I have a new environment as well now. The construction people at Poly started working at 7 am this morning right outside my room instead of the 9 am like I was told. Also I found out last night that the fridge wasn't working as well. So I went to the club level crew at around 230 and talked to them about both issues. They were very apologetic about it and when I asked to be moved (as in room) they said no problem which resort and when I told them Grand Floridian thinking they would come back with a new room at Poly, they called over to GF right away and got me into a main building deluxe view club level room for the rest of my stay. Disney is actually covering half of the difference in rate price, also so it's only costing me $500 more (after taking off the deposit's I paid) to move. I know sometimes WDW gets a bad rap and I'm sure in some cases it's warranted, but this was a very nice and classy thing to do on their part.

We got hit by Poly construction last July We could hear the Captain Cooks, Pineapple Lanai, and Trader Sam's construction from our balcony, even as late as 11pm at night. We were only there for a few days before a cruise, so I didn't bother trying to switch then. When we got home, I sent an email. They were very apologetic, especially since we were never notified of the construction and pool closure, and credited us. I was very impressed with the response, and it brought my faith back some. I still won't stay at Poly until all of the construction is done though. Glad it worked out.

Any idea when it's suppose to be over? That's my dream resort and I'm trying to talk my husband into letting us stay there before our cruise next March...

I knew about the construction, but didn't realize how major the noise and ruckus was going to be. I figured I had nothing to lose by complaining to them. I mean 9 am ok, 7 am not ok.

I haven't been paying attention. I would either look at Tikiman's website or the Poly thread in the resorts forum. I think it's this year, and off the top of my head by winter at the latest.

I'm sure some will be done sooner than other, but they did say something about the other pool (not the valcano one that just opened), being down from Spring 2015 until around the same time next year.

Thanks!

Anyone know what time they closed Warwick Davis' line this morning? I am trying to determine if I nap here at home then drive over or just come sleep in the parking lot.

 

[animalkingdom15]

Hey if anyone is interested, there is a 9:20 Galactic breakfast ADR available for Sunday 5/31 I just saw it when looking for a lunch ADR.

Is it bad that I may or may not have stalked the Vader M&G to see if some errant child ran out in front of him while he was walking which would make him stop short to which I would promptly yell "Ani are Ok? Are you Ok Ani?" to the tune of Smooth Criminal

Now I have that song stuck in my head
