Glad to hear you are having a good time. Is your comforter the one with all the fairies on it (Tinkerbelle, Blue Fairy and Flora/Fauna/Merriweather)? That's my favorite
. Just wanted to ask about your view, as we were having that conversation right before you left. In relation to the back entrance, where was your room and how was the Wishes view? Hope you have safe travels home and report in when you get a chance.
But I hope the rest of the trip goes smooth!
Does anyone know if they still sell those pillows in the shop downstairs?? I really hope to buy one this trip.
Maybe Sarah of Memories by Sarah could purchase it for you and you could work something out that way?? Those are the largest (3 ft size) I have seen so far and not any in the GF store. Vonnie didn't think they carry larger anymore. Sarah is great and if it's out there she'll get it for you. I had a couple special requests that she came thru on. 
I am looking forward to THanksgiving at the GF. It just felt like "home" there yesterday. 
How was check in for you? I know they are doing it differently with curbside and then directly to your room. Many are not happy with this change. How'd it work for you and what do you think about the change? They did do turndown as requested and even followed thru to call me and double check that it was done. Housekeeping has been really good - except an issue yesterday where they didn't clean our room til 3:30 because they thought we were checking out....We showed up for a rest and they were working on it. As for grubby walls, I think the rooms are just kind of getting rundown. They look like they've had some hard use on the walls and carpet. Peach stucco really shows the grime and I bet it's not easy to clean and makes the place look a bit dingy. Why they chose that I cannot even guess haha.
Our view is of the canal toward the BWI, but we are only on floor 2 (close to elevators and everything so good that way) but we look at treetops really. It's fine. We are mostly out. Just back for a bit of a rest. Lucy and I got up to make park opening at MK today and just missed it by 2 minutes due to bus situation. Oh well. Tomorrow we try again! Got a bit too crowded so we are going to Epcot tonight. 
) Thanks so much to all of you who helped me make the decision to switch! I'm glad to hear we won't feel out of place, my children are very well behaved but we're not "country club" type people so I was a little concerned! Now I just need to learn everything I can about the GF!
There were many smaller ones on the lower shelves. But then near the top I saw some Minnies that were larger. Then I noticed these few larger Mickeys. $50 sounds like a fair price for them although I wouldn't have guessed them to be that 36." But they were up high. We'll await your investigation.
Are you having lots of special time with your daughter?
Kelly, I did take pictures of the SL lounge. However, I've never posted pictures before. When I have time to figure it out, I'll give it a shot!
Tammi, yes, thatt's the comforter we had. Which theme is that? We were above the marina entrance. If facing that section from outside, we had the last room to the right of the section that sticks out over the entrance. While our view of Fantasy in the Sky was excellent from that same room, with Wishes you can only see the Western perimeter fireworks. I suspect that much of Sago Cay sees only the Eastern perimeter. But the music is quite clear.
Castlelight, the shop still has both the teacups and Dream is a Wish pillows.
Huey, for gardenview I personally would request a marina view which means either Sago Cay or Conch Key. I love looking at the water.
Channing, I swear I saw two different sizes of Mickeys.
Jen, my daughter and I took ME to the GF in January. We arrived around 6:30 and then had dinner at the GFCafe with the rest of our family which was a great way to start our trip. An extra day...congrats!
