Oh good idea!Nothing finer than a Napolean for breakfast!

I was at poly with Blue. We watched from the lounge 3rd and the beach the 4th. As luck would have it , it rained on the 4th and then the show was delayed an hour or so and we had to cram inside.Yes, my family loved the Keurig maker in the room. We didn't bring our own coffee but the housekeeping keep us full the whole trip without even asking. We used our refillable mugs instead of the coffee mugs.
Hey there my friend....I would love that!! I keep telling my DD we should do that one day, my DH and DS are always going off with family on guy trips. College keeps getting in the way, but she's almost done.
I think we're going for a long trip the week of July 4th 2019, anything I should know of schedule for? Or stay away from? We have gone in early July but only as early as the 5th.
Happy Anniversary!!! What an amazing way to celebrate!!
I'll ask you the same as I asked BlueSkies.....Is there anything should I know about the week of the July 4th? Anything to see or stay away from? I heard that the fireworks are displayed the 3rd and the 4th.

The resort was busy too.
I waited at the entrance for dd to arrive from mco and watched so many people arriving and departing via cars, Uber's , lyft etc. they did NOT ID dd when she arrived, they allowed anyone to come to the resort.
So overall having cl really made a difference. We made a party in the 3rd floor area when it was raining and again after.
They had fun desserts and some decorations too. The pools had stuff for the kids during the day as well.
If I go in the 4th again, I'd pick poly cl.
I’d definitely stay away from MK on the 3rd and 4th. If you have little ones, they tend to have special games/activities throughout both days. There are Fireworks on the 3rd and 4th at MK. 4th Epcot too. Fireworks are amazing! Be ready for heat and crowds! Definitely fun, though! Enjoy!!!
I've been packing for myself and now moved on to dh and ds. Trying to use a carry on since we arrive after midnight.WOW!! Everyone must busy planning and packing for WDW!! Page 2 rescue and back to back posts from me on different days, which is crazy rare!!
Football season is here and my DH and DS are boring me. The weather is horrible and so I am surfing the web for nothing specific. I hope everyone has having a great weekend.
Thanks for reminder. Need to start my tip collecting! I'm behind.Not packing...just list making.. tip collecting.

I'm one of "those" who brings enough clothes for a month even for short trips. The struggle lol.

Or the quiche from France in Epcot!

This isn’t making my decision any easier!
I always over pack! DH is constantly reminding me we have a washer/dryer in the room. I had some cooler weather clothes packed but DH had an unexpected trip this week and dumped my stuff. Apparently it was easier than getting his luggage down!
I actually WILL use the washer/dryer since we have to run 3 times while we’re there. Nothing is worse than sweaty running clothes! We’re doing the Fall Feast 5k in Animal Kingdom then the following weekend we have a 12k Veterans Day Race. That means I can eat more...in theory.
I’m pondering taking our closet organizer for SIL. The 2nd bedroom closet looks pretty small. Is it larger than it appears in pictures?
Happy planning / packing for everyone!
Thoughts and prayers for the East Coasters dealing with Florence. We were lucky with Gordon last week. Hopefully Florence turns out to sea again!
Good luck with all that running. Didn't you know its supposed to be vacation??? LOL
Are you doing 2 br vgf? If so I just watched my video of it. The closet for the 2nd bedroom is across from the bathrooms and is a traditional 2 sliding door style.
Also see floor plan, there is another closet in the hall.
Hello to all my dear GFers!
Well, it's been a while. Work craziness has taken me away from deep thoughts of our Happy Place. But, now I'm sitting home in my jammies with an early Spring bug. Ugh, with the delightful exception that it gives me some time to enjoy page after page of DIS and GF goodness. We have a May trip planned and hopefully this one pans out! I noted that a few pages back, a number of our GFers have plans for December stays. We have been fortunate enough to enjoy several Christmas trips to the GF. In order to send some early cheer, I send a couple of mice your way ...

Sending love and prayers to all, especially for those in the path of Florence.

There's a really nice video walk-through here:All I can say is WOW!!! I SO wish we could stay in this room for our upcoming trip!
BIL and SIL are not AP so we have 2 resort days so hopefully we have some time to enjoy the room!
I stalked the site the day it was 1st released as a cash ressie. I figured my only chance to get one of those! We loved it!There's a really nice video walk-through here:All I can say is WOW!!! I SO wish we could stay in this room for our upcoming trip!
