Monday 30th July
We all woke around half 8 and DH and DD got ready for the pool and stopped at the lounge for breakfast first. DS and I followed them about half an hour later. Id woken with a headache but it wasnt too bad and took some tablets. We stayed at the Volcano pool for an hour or so then DS and I went to the quiet pool which was great as it had a 7ft 8inch deep end. We stayed there for about another hour but my headache was getting worse. DS was also feeling out of sorts so we went back to the room. He watched some TV and played on his Nintendo and I dozed on and off. My headache was getting a lot worse and I was starting to feel sick.
DD and DH came up a couple of hours later and we just stayed in the room. The kids wanted to go to MK but DH didnt so I ended up taking them even though I felt really rough. I was annoyed that DH wouldnt make the effort to take them and told him, in a huff, that Id be canceling the ADR for Kona that night
.
It was about 3pm and we caught the Monorail to MK and once through the turn styles we headed to Tomorrow land. I normally love Main Street but all the different smells were making me feel very sick. The kids wanted to ride Stitch and I got as far as the entrance to the first chamber but I couldnt go any further so I gave DD one of the radios and told them Id wait at the exit. I bought a bottle of water and went and sat outside the shop. They came out after a while and next we headed over to Buzz. I went on this one with them and despite feeling rough still managed to score over 600,000 DD managed a very respectable 480,000 while DS only got 32,000 and sulked for ages over it.
Space Mountain was next and I went as far as the chicken exit before bailing out and waiting where you get off the ride. DS and DD had a great time and we all did the silly waves into the monitors as you go up the moving walkway to the exit. The kids wanted to go to Frontier land for some McD fries to we walked to Toon Town to get the train. Unfortunately it was experiences some problems and was only running to Main Street and then back to Toon Town in reverse. We got off at Main Street and walked through the shops pin trading as we went. I stopped at the first aid station and got some extra strength pain killers and a decongestant tablet as Im sure it was a sinus headache.
We walked to the fries place and had 3 large fries and a coke. I was starting to feel better and the fries were the first thing Id eaten since breakfast. When we finished the fries we went back to Aloha Isle where we had a chocolate soft serve for DS and Pineapple, vanilla swirl for DD and a Pineapple Dole Whip for me just what the Dr ordered. They were lovely and we really enjoyed them.
The kids had a reservation at the Neverland Club at 6pm and it was already 5:15pm so we made out way back to the Poly. I dropped them at the kids club and as I was feeling better and not annoyed with DH anymore I phoned to see if he wanted to go to Kona. Hed been asleep and had just woken so he didnt want to go. I actually didnt mind as I didnt fancy a bit meal, I cancelled our ADR and went back to the room. DH and I just went down to the lounge and had something to eat there. It was Sushi night and we had some lovely Sushi with salad, mini pittas and humus and cheese and crackers. There was also make your own soup, I added chicken and noodles to mine but there was also shrimp and quite a few other items. DH said that the reason he didnt want to go to MK was because wed decided that our time at the Poly was for just chilling and we werent going to do any parks. It was what wed decided so I reluctantly agreed he had a point.
We stayed in the lounge for a while then went back to the room to watch the Disney Cruise Line DVD that a cruise line employee had kindly dropped off at the Poly for us. Since they mentioned a Tiki Fest cruise in 2009 DH thinks this is a great idea. He doesnt know that we already have one booked for next year although Ive more or less decided not to go in 2008 and move the booking to 2009.
I collected the kids and on the way back saw Lisa from Magical Vacations and her husband again, we had a quick chat, then Steve and a few of the other Tiki Festers (sp) in the lounge. When we got back to the room the kids and I went to check out the evening deserts. There was nothing that DS wanted but DD picked a few mini cakes and we took some back for DH.
We were all tired (again) so after watching some TV we settled into bed at about half 9 and DH went to try and photograph Wishes from the beach. He didnt get on very well but as I have no photos from today here are two photos he took.
We were all asleep by half 10.
