Well another perfect 9 days in Disney, weather was sunny and almost a little too hot, but I would never complain about the heat.
The room was great as always, our request wasn't met but we were able to change our room when we checked in. The food service was good except they have changed a few things since we were there last. No yogurt for breakfast and no PB &J sandwhiches for the kids at "lunch" time. We did ask and were told they don't do this anymore. They also don't do the pails in the room upon checkin with a few goodies in them for the kids,this is only for Princess Suits now. We had to make one service call as our tub was clogged when we checked in. But of course we love the Poly and had a great time at the resort!
One thing I noticed that I have never seen before is the lifeguards saving kids in the pool everyday! Everyday we saw a lifeguard jump in to save a very young child while the parent was at the other end laying in a lounge chair or sitting in the zero entry part while their 3 or 4 year old was going down the slide or sitting in the deeper end all alone. Very heartening to watch and see. The lifeguards would try to locate the parents and speak to them but sometimes the kids would run. I did speak to a parent and let her know what had just happened to her son, she than questioned him to see what happened.
Another thing I noticed was in the lounge, people being slobs. Food left on the floor, all over the tables, bowls, cups, napkins. Very sad to see people treat the lounge like that. I'm sure they don't act like that at home.
Also we saw the dream team once as we walked into Bugs Life. We walked by them and than they started handing out fast passes so I turned around and said can my family get those and she said no, we weren't here at the dream moment, that put me off a little. I didn't see anyone with laynards this time and very few, like a handful with the hats.
Saturday 5/10 the Magic Kingdom was packed and it was so hot out. We left at noon and swam until about 6 and when we went back the lines were the longest we had seen all week.
We went to the Pirates and Princess party, we did enjoy it and loved the fireworks!
We tried to book the bounce back program for next year but it is only good through 2008.
As always it was sad to come home and now we have to wait another year!
