Posting live 12 nights CL at the Poly!

We are headed to lunch at Le Cellier via DHS. It's too hot out to walk from the monorail so we cheated. :rotfl: Everyone is starving! I can't wait to eat my cheddar cheese soup and pretzel bread! I will continue updating tonight. :goodvibes

This is my very favorite meal!!! All pretzel .... none of the others please! What did you have for dessert? I'll see if you chose my very favorite Disney dessert! :cool1:
 
Here's a photo from breakfast I forgot to include!

After breakfast at CP we started the day with 3 pp photos. Then we did Monsters Inc Laugh Floor and Space Ranger Spin.

After that my mom and I took Lily on the Peoplemover while my aunt, Nicole, and Daniel did Space Mountain. When we met up we started to walk towards Fantasyland. It was HOT. We stopped for a frozen lemonade and headed towards Pooh's honey pots but the princess fell asleep so we did Mickey's Philharmagic instead. Then we headed to It's A Small World.

Then I managed to convince Danimal to do the Haunted Mansion. He HATES the HM. He's afraid. Well, I'm a bad mom and we got stuck for about 8 minutes watching the dancing scene. Trying to keep a scared 8 year old calm when you're freaking out yourself isn't easy. I'm claustrophobic and HATE being stuck on rides. Eventually it started again and we exited.

We decided to split up at this point and meet at the exit. My mom took Lily to watch the parade and the rest of us headed to BTMRR. It was a blast! But after that we had to get out of the park. It was so hot and crowded. We met up with my mom and headed to the monorail.

Apparently shortly after this the monorail went down because I got a text from Jeanette that they were waiting for the water launch because the monorail wasn't working. I met up with her and Brian at the dock and we went back to the lounge for some drinks. I had already cleared their visit with IPO and with the desk. We had a FABULOUS time chatting away. The time just flew by and before I knew it I had to head down to meet my family do we could make our dinner reservation at 'Ohana.

I had taken Danimal to the bathroom when I checked my phone and saw iluveeyore was at the Tambu Lounge! I mustered up my courage and went over to say hi. We had a great convo and she and her husband were so sweet. I'm so glad I said hi!

After dinner we all retired to the room for a bit. My mom and aunt said they'd watch the kids so my cousin and I could hit the MK for EMH! It was a blast. We did the Laugh Floor, Buzz Lightyear, Peoplemover, and BTMRR along with lots and lots of laughing. It was a great time.
 
Great update Dani!

When we use to go to Disney as a family I had the same problems getting everyone up and moving in the mornings.

Love your DIS meets with Iloveeeyore and Jeanette :goodvibes

Love all the pics too!

We hope you continue to have a wonderful stay at the Poly CL. So jealous you are still there!

They call me the warden!:lmao: I didn't wake anyone up today though. It was a late night last night and we all slept in.

So glad you're home safe and sound. Glad you chilled out yesterday. Hopefully we will see you again soon!
 
The next day was my favorite meal of the trip. We had a lunch reservation at Le Cellier for 11:45. Since we had to be there so early I decided it wasn't worth taking the monorail and hoofing it to the world showcase. We cheated and took the bus to DHS and then the boat to world showcase. It is SO hot in that sun and there's just no shade on the walk to Canada. We left just after 10 and got there around 11:30 and were seated promptly. I had the cheddar cheese soup, mushroom filet with cream cheese mashed potatoes subbed for risotto, and maple creme brûlée. Delish! Everyone enjoyed their meal. My mom liked it much more this year than last year.

After lunch we snapped some photos outside. Then we headed to Future World to do some rides.

First we did Journey Into Imagination, which I love! Then we went to the Land and my mom and I took Lily on Living With The Land while the others did Soarin, and then we switched. I was so proud of my mom for trying it this year! She's always been afraid but she tried it this time and loved it!!!

When everyone met up again we took a break to get some treats from Sunshine Seasons. I love their sweets!

Mine and Daniel's tray:

Lily and her chocolate cake:

When I took the cake away she gave me the meanest squinty eye face! I laughed so hard. I couldn't believe the face she gave me!

After The Land we went to The Seas and did Nemo and Turtle Talk. We split up because my aunt had to pee (again :rolleyes:) so I took the kids and we went outside. That's when we saw it had rained while we were inside and there was more to come. We headed to Innoventions to take cover....and as soon as I got there Danimal decided he needed to use the bathroom. Why is it that when you offer to take kids they don't have to go and then five minutes later it's an emergency? :furious: Now we go running through the park to find a bathroom. Epcot is the only park I don't know like the back of my hand. We get to the bathroom and I'm angry because I want to get out of the park before the sky opens up, and he could have just gone with my mom and aunt. They're calling me in the midst of this debacle and I'm just getting frustrated. Daniel is crying because I yelled at him for not going when he was asked. I'm sweating to death and the clouds are looming overhead. We get to the bathroom, resolve the issue, and then we meet up with the others. By the time we get on the monorail it is POURING. When we reach the TTC we have to stand ther for twenty minutes while it pours buckets outside.

We finally decided to make a run for it and got back to the lounge for appetizers and punch. We just hung around the resort and watched the fireworks from the lounge. My cousin and I planned to go out but we all went to bed early, except my mom and aunt who did laundry.
 
So glad you all enjoyed Le Cellier!

There must be something seriously wrong with me...not crazy about WDW in the heat (takes a toll on the old MS), but absolutely love it in the rain, especially in the summer! In January/Feb it can be very raw when it rains.

Another magical day in Paradise (did you extend for 3 ngts??). :)
 
Dani you just ate my very favorite meal in all of WDW!!! My favorite soup, my favorite main course and my very favorite dessert!!!! Yummy!!!
 
Oh I am so glad to hear you enjoyed your Le Cellier...we will be eating lunch there on the Sept 16! I totally hear you on the kids bathroom thing, my 2 youngest girls do it all the time. Very frustrating!! ::yes::
 
Lovin' the updates. Sorry about all that rain. :headache: Did you manage to extend? :goodvibes

Hmmm, pretzel bread sounds yummy! I keep tryin' for a Le Cellier lunch ressie. If the ADR gods don't smile on me, I'll try again next year. :laughing:

What was that drink you had pictured in your previous update? It looked EXTREMELY tasty! :thumbsup2
 
We aren't extending the trip...but we are touring Pop and AoA and my mom and DS want to try AoA next year! Right now we are having lunch at Pop and then heading to Beaches and Cream for a treat.
 
Great report....how did you like AoA?
 
You sound like you are having an amazing time! Love the updates!

I can't wait to be there. Maybe we will see you around the lounge tomorrow :cool1:
