It sounds like you all were having a great time. I didn't even know all that stuff you did was in Epcot. We don't usually slow down and take time for the small stuff. I am glad you had a perfect Disney day.
Thanks so much, it really was a nice relaxing day!
Aw that stinks Eric got sick
What a rude pool CM! I would have gotten the supervisor after that interaction! After spending so much $$$ I don't stand for that! My parents had a rude CM check them in at AKL, and when I heard this we went back and spoke to a manager, I have zero tolerance for that sort of thing to GUESTS.
Thanks Nicole! Bummer that your parents had a rude CM too! I couldn't wait to just get out of there!
Boardwalk looks great.
Your view is incredible!!
I know u went over to Epcot to see Illuminations, but were you able to see them at all from your balcony? Just curious
That sucks about rude CM at pool games. I would have taken her name and got a supervisor.
You all look great that night at dinner...
What a shame Eric got sick. Glad that was it for him
Thanks Kelly! Boardwalk was great! We could see Illuminations from our balcony and some of Wishes! Thanks for the dinner compliments! I was so happy Eric didn't get sick again!
Too funny about you having to use your ipod to get directions to the Boardwalk. Looks like a really nice resort ... my boys have always wanted to try that waterslide. We love the Cape May breakfast and go almost every trip.
I hate when rude people ruin part of your day. That was really rude CM at the bingo. It was so nice of you to give the another family your remaining cards.
That is awesome that you can just walk home from Illuminations ... definitely beats the bus rush. Sorry to hear about Eric getting sick.
Thanks so much! The waterslide was a definite hit! i LOVED Cape May Cafe and so did the boys! Walking home from Epcot is a GREAT perk of staying at the Boardwalk!
Great update Diane! I so want to stay at the Boardwalk one day! I love it there!! So excited to try Cape May Cafe for the 1st time in Sept. Oh, and I can't believe the nerve of the CM!!!
Thanks! You will LOVE CMC, it was GREAT! The CM really upset me too!
The boardwalk looks great, very pretty. Sorry about your little guy getting sick it's good that housekeeping was there so quickly. Loving your report !!
Thanks so much! Housekeeping was REALLY on the ball thank goodness!
What a crazy ride to the Boardwalk!
The view from your room is awesome! Can you believe I have never explored the Boardwalk area??? I love the pictures of it at night!
What a stinky CM during the bingo games -- there was no call to act like that. Grrr!
All the characters at Cape May look so cute in their beach outfits!
Poor Eric! Hope he felt better in the morning!
Thanks Jackie...that taxi driver was WEIRD! You HAVE to check out the Boardwalk area, you will LOVE it! Eric did feel better in the morning!
Great update Diane! It's so funny, because you had told me everything that went on here (Bingo, the taxi driver, etc.) but hearing it again in this was was wonderful! Loved your Boardwalk pictures, especially at night. Loved the Flying fish review and pics, hope to eat there someday. Your hair down looked beautiful (not that you aren't beautiful with it up
loved the one of you and the boys at dinner. Can't wait for more : )
Lesley
You have me BLUSHING Lesley! Thanks for all your super sweet comments! You guys should give Flying Fish a try, it is a GREAT date night choice!
Diane,
The boardwalk looks just beautiful. I really hope we stay there someday. Cape May looks great too, it is on our next summer list! Glad it got a good review. I am sickened by your Bingo mess... are you kidding me? What a terrible CM... and those who do the games should be extra great with people skills.
Thanks Laura! With all of your little ones, the Boardwalk area would be a GREAT choice! The bingo mess really upset me and it stayed with me for a bit too, I really should have said something!
What a crazy taxi ride, but at least the driver was fair!
Hmmm, what a horrible difference in prizes. Electronic battleship and play-doh?? Not very fair imho. Especially after the way it was all handled!
Your family looked so nice for dinner, as you always do!!! Loved all of your boardwalk pictures!!
Poor Eric!! Glad he didn't get sick again that night though!
Thanks Sunnie! Yes, I think if the driver tried to charge us the full fare Bryan would have laughed in his face! Yes, the range of prizes was pretty big! Thanks for the sweet comments about the family pictures!
I love
the SSR lobby! My daughter loves the Donald Duck cartoons they play there and she knows exactly which door they keep the mini horses in that cabinet!
Can you tell we've had many stays at this beautiful resort?! Love the lobby pictures....
Looks like you got a great room at the BWV! How awesome that your requests were met. I just love the colors in the BWVs rooms. So pretty.
I wonder if the DISr will find your report and see your sign! Cool!
Great BWV pool pics! Below in this picture on the top floor behind the top platform of the slide was our corner room a couple years ago...one of our favorite rooms ever!
Looks like you had a great time by the pool! Yeah for winning some prizes!!!
to rude people, though. They are everywhere unfortunately. That was nice of you to give your cards away.
Your Mozz app look so yummy! We've never eaten at Flying Fish...someday!
LOVE
this pic....simply gorgeous!
Thank goodness he didn't get sick again!!! Oh, it is just terrible when they throw up on vacation!
Thanks so much! Your room view you had looked like it would be such fun! My Flying Fish app. was super yummy! I too was glad Eric didn't get sick again!
If that would have happened to us at the Bingo game I would have been
. Not your fault if your family is lucky!
Poor Eric! It stinks being sick on vacation. Hopefully he recovered quickly!
It must be sooo nice to be able to take such a long trip! Gives u guys plenty of time to stop and do things like bingo and Innoventions. I hope we can take a trip like that one day!
The Boardwalk looks like SO much fun. I didn't know that they had a great slide like that! Too bad pool hopping is frowned upon...
Thanks so much! I agree, it isn't our fault we were lucky! It was nice taking things at such a leisurely pace! The Boardwalk was fun. I sure hope you get to experience it someday!
You all really had an exciting day. That cab ride sounds adventurous. I can't believe that CM was so rude. That is crazy. Poor Eric, throwing up is the worst. My husband takes care of those type situations at our house. If I have to clean it up, I get sick too.
Thanks so much! Adventurous cab ride is right! In our house my DH would get sick if he had to clean up puke!!
What a wonderful trip report! You have a beautiful family! Your kids are always nicely dressed and so adorable in so many of your photos! I am a fellow NJ mom who loves Disney too! Looking forward to hearing more about your trip!!
HELLO! Thanks for reading and posting! Thanks so much for the sweet compliments! What part of Jersey are you from? We are in ocean County!
Hi!
What a wonderful trip report!
I can't wait to hear the rest. One question, which Vacation Club resort did you prefer? Thank you for sharing your pictures with us.
Thanks so much for reading and posting! I am glad you are enjoying it! I preferred Boardwalk over SSR just for the convenience factor alone! Both resorts are beautiful but SSR is SO BIG and I like the compactness of Boardwalk better!
Another great update!
I'm so sorry that CM was rude to you guys - that was for sure uncalled for!
Poor buddy to get sick like that! At least the CM were quick with the bed linens. We had that happen a few years ago; a little one got sick on the comforter, and lickety split, here they come with more linens - it was so nice that they were so quick!
Thanks so much! I thought the CM was pretty rude too, in hindsight I probably should have said something! Glad to hear your housekeeper was quick to help you guys too!
, but the slide looks so cool.
