ALOHA COUSIN!!!

Back to MK after dinner... the boys didn't care about the parade, fireworks, or rides, they just wanted to get back to SORCERERS!

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

Thank you so much for the updates and pictures! I noticed on the Barnstormer that the seats were a little different. The old ones used to hurt like heck on your back because they were so hard. Are the new one a soft cushion type or do they still hurt? I'll ride it anyway cause I love it, but just curious. I can't wait to go in June and check out the area.
Thanks very much!
Kimberley

YES! New seats were much more comfortable

Back to the room to shower and get ready to go to MK... tons of animals were out! Come to find out there was a secret wedding proposal going on at the viewing area! Super romantic, lots of people were crying

This cracked me up! He was trying to reach something down on the ground so he had to spread his legs apart to lean over! LOL

Back to MK... I tried to grab some night pics of Dumbo, the pictures don't really show how beautiful it is The lights change color and with the water its really pretty.

Day 7 - going home

Everyone needs a souvenir!

Saying goodbye to our "mini-jambo"

Sad sight to see The back of the welcome sign means our vacation is officially over

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

I hope everyone enjoyed my LIVE report! We are already in the planning stages of another trip. Looking to stay at the Poly CL in August or October, seems too far away but the time will go by quickly I know.

If anyone has any questions about the CBR, YC, or Kidani please feel free to ask. If you want more pictures there are close to 500 on my photobucket sight from this trip as well as links to all our other trip albums.

Oh, and I forgot to mention, we met a VERY NICE family in the elevator at Kidani who recognized our boys from our old Travel Channel show ... I wanted to give them a SHOUT OUT and a JAMBO It was nice to meet you guys and I hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip. It's always fun to have a "celebrity" moment, especially when its been so many years ago.

Thanks everyone!

SEE YA REAL SOON!!!!!!!!!

Erika, Thank you so much for the live report and all the wonderful pictures.
I really realize now how much we miss WDW looking at your photos. I don't remember ever being on the people mover. Is that something that is only open during certain times of the year?

Your family is adorable! Good looking young men you get to travel with. It looks like the boys really enjoy being brothers and have fun together. That is so great to see.

I am so sorry to hear about the rude housekeeper at Kadani. That was most disappointing for such a wonderful resort. We had something simular happen at our last visit to the Poly. On our last morning the housekeeper started knocking on the door at 8:15 AM My DH got out of bed and explained that we were not ready yet. Someone knocked on our door three times before we checked out a little before 11:00. (yes we had the door locked and Do not Distrube sign out) I wonder if Disney is pushing their housekeeping staff a little too much?

I will have to go back and read your other trip reports, certainly enjoyed this trip with you and your family. Thank you.

I'm sure you've been on the people mover, it use to be called the TTA, Tomorrowland Transit Authority, but then they went back to the original name of the people mover.... It's right under astro orbitor.

Glad you enjoyed my report, it wasn't quite as good since I didn't upload the pics nightly like I usually do. I sure won't forget that cord again!!!

Hi Erika, we were there the same time you guys were! In fact, we sat a couple of tables over from you in England one day, I was going to come over and say hi (I met you several years ago at Epcot, I recognized you from Fans Guide) but I got a phone call that wouldn't stop! Your boys are getting so grown up.

We were at CBR and loved it, don't think I'd want to stay in those pirate rooms due to the distance from everything and I keep hearing those beds are weird.

So glad you had a great trip, when is your next one?

Love all the pictures!
