I just marathoned through all 10 pages of your TR and it's 11pm! It's gonna be a rough morning getting ready for church in a few hours. 
Jam, fantastic trip report! I couldn't imagine trying to coordinate getting two families around WDW. (I can barely get mine out the door each morning!) But what a blessing to have another wonderful bunch to share the magic with!
Personal jealousy rating: HIGH!
Awesome friends...private jet...Poly concierge...backstage meet and greets...fabulous meals...beautiful children...well behaved DH...HOLY COW!

Part 13, still Day 5, March 28
First, let me thank you for your patience and encouragement. Life got in the way of the best made plans last week so I am behind on this trip report. Ill be better this week. Cledus is asking for more chapters, so here goes:
Our break-from-the-parks day continued back at the lovely Polynesian resort. After lunch in Captain Cooks, the boys decided to swim and I had a date with the laundry room. Now, Ive never done laundry at Disney. Weve always packed enough clothes to make it through the week. But halfway through this ten-day extravaganza, our pants and long-sleeved shirts had worn out their welcome and deserved a spin and dry. The CookMaster, of course, had done laundry the day before me. Shes like that: always a step ahead in accomplishing tasks. Shes the Doer, The Accomplisher, as well as CookMaster and Magician. Dont you love her? So shes sold me on the Poly laundry and Im off with my book and two loads in a suitcase.
For those of you who may need this amenity someday, I will tell you its just fine. The machines transformed my dollars into quarters and my quarters into detergent, wash, dry, and dryer sheets. I sat in a comfy chair and joined another mom in a trashy Lifetime movie on the screen. I was missing the Gatelatches and was thrilled when my phone rang. They were back from a day of waving manymany Fastpasses at MGM. The boys hooked up at the pool, then arcade, and the CookMaster joined me in a load of wash and fold.
Later that afternoon, I was ready for a glass of wine in the lounge. The boys came in for a lemonade and game of checkers. I must say, all four boys behaved so well on the trip. Roll your eyes if you want, but I saw enough Veruca Salts and Greedy Gimmies to make me grateful for our boys. They were kind to each other and did what we told them to do. What in the world do kids have to complain about in Disney World? I dont know, but I saw plenty doing it. Im just grateful we all had a good time enjoying magic in each others company.
The evenings ADR called for a monorail and boat to Wilderness Lodge for Whispering Canyon Café. We left early so the boys could check out the pin kiosk at the Contemporary. They really enjoyed buying the pins this trip. I dont think any of them traded, but they carefully pondered each selection and searched for exactly what they wanted. They do make great souvenirs. The pins do, too.
Pins in hand, we made our way past the CR pool to the boat dock. We stayed at the CR last year and loved it. You simply cannot beat the convenience of walking back to your resort from MK. We also loved our view from the tower room; you can pretty much see whos riding AstroOrbiter. The staff was friendly, rooms were big and comfy, and our bathroom there was much bigger than our Poly bath. But the pool is kinda pitiful. Our boys told the Gatelatch boys all about it as we walked by: that pool wasnt much fun. No, they definitely prefer the smokin volcano on the beach. It worked for us because we dont spend that much time at the pool, but if pool tricks are your game, this one needs a timeout.
We had plenty of time to look at, talk about, even swim (if we had wanted to) in that pool because the launch to the WL took 100,000 hours to arrive! That was, by far, our longest Disney transportation wait. We stayed at the WL three years ago, but I dont remember the waits being nearly that long .and it was cold then. Anyway, we used the time to take a few pictures of the boys, as it was our last night together and all
First they posed well for us
Then they turned back into boys
The Gatelatches asked us to take a family pic for them, but The CookMaster had to fool with DS9s hair. He loved that; everyone patiently waited ..
Finally, what should be their Christmas card photo
The only good thing about waiting for a Disney boat is it gives you time to get hungry. We were, surprisingly, starving, despite being charter members of the Disney Dining Plan for the Overfed.
We finally made it to the WL in time to race to the podium for ADRs. By now weve realized even if you race to the podium, youre going to have to wait for your table. I understand Disney does not hold tables with an ADR as a typical reservation does, but we always had plenty of time to restroom and wash hands while we waited. We looked around the impressive WL lobby and were seated shortly.
OK, its time to say it. For the first time this trip, we were a bit disappointed in an old favorite. WCC was louder than ever. Maybe Im just that much older, but we couldnt hear a thing. Some servers were funny, but ours (Lenny) was quite average. Im sure it was fine, but it was all very very slow. I think dessert (which we had to order even though we were full) took about 25 minutes to arrive. We did laugh about the ketchup bottles and straws in the hair. Lenny did threaten to tie up DS6 for not eating his supper (which sent him promptly to that hiding place called the restroom). It was fine and, as always, we made our own fun, but it wasnt a meal-report highlight. The funniest part of the evening was witnessing yet another meltdown, and deciding to catch a photo for you readers. We giggled our heads off as this little tyke turned UP the volume. He was ALL DONE with his day and wanted to tell the world! For those of you who have been puzzled by the Meltdown tally, I present Exhibit A:
If this is your child, I want you to know I said a prayer for you right after I took his picture.
Another topic of conversation centered around our continued attempts to persuade the Gatelatches to stay the rest of the week. Well, lets be honest, everyone but Cledus was I-N! Cledus, though, is far too responsible and important to be away from his business more than six days (see CAST). He is great at resting and vacationing, then he needs to make sure his business has not gone belly-up in his absence. Every time we begged him to stay, he said theyd have to go to the Motel 6 and he didnt know where one was. I finally decided to leave him alone, secretly launching my plot to make them return with us on our next trip to the World.
I left in another food coma, vowing to refuse dessert the next day. On the boat back to the CR, we had the unexpected pleasure of enjoying the Electric Water Pageant on its way to Fort Wilderness. It was chilly that night, and I remember E snuggled in my lap. Actually, we all huddled close and relaxed in gratitude for another Mickey-magical day.

Meltdowns: 7 highest total yet!

Yes, this was shorter chapter but I wanted to finish Day 6! Days 7-10 still to come. I promise!

And a good installment, too. It sounds like fun to have close friends to share a trip with. I guess I need to convert some of our friends into those who "get Disney". At this point, we all have small children and everyone thinks it's too much work! Oh, the misconception....
I was getting worried. Thanks for another fab look into the world of your vacation.

Another wonderful installment Jam -
Thank goodness we're not going at the same time. I do not begin to believe that I will make it through 8 days at Disney without my kids melting down at some point. It's inevitable. Like the fact that my daughter will someday take scissors to her hair.

It's random humour like this that makes me come back for more.
Sometimes late at night, I still chuckle at the picture you posted of the circumferentially challenged lady in the way-too-small clothing. I appreciate your writing and your sense of humour; you capture the moment well.
From the For What It's Worth Department: we too had a long wait on the Contemporary pier one night. We were headed to Ft. Wilderness and were surprised at how long it took to get a boat from there.
(I think this means "mad props," but I'm not sure. I'm not even sure what mad props means. Maybe it means farting head on a moped.)

It will be magical!!
Your son may be the one who uses the scissors. Mine did at age 3 1/2. Good luck with that.

Sneaking in to find that you have been busy. 
I heard somewhere that you may be a hugger and a jumper for joy. It's all good. I will do enough of that for both of us. I will cry when I get there, cry cause I am there, and cry when I leave. I will also skip hand in hand with anyone who will let me. And when I am done, I will do it all again for you.
Loved the pics
