CG was great and TE is definitely worth trying. We had it booked the previous 2 years and cancelled but glad we eventually fitted it in ! 😊

Your absolutely right. It makes no sense given they have just rebuilt the area!

It’s a shame Olivia’s was quite the hidden gem.
She loved BBB. It was a lovely experience but expensive. Im sure the price has gone up. Its now $75 for the castle package( which is the basic) we took our own dress. Thanks for reading along😊

The food doesn’t look great at crt and how rude of the other people expecting you to move. We ate at Olivia’s once for dinner and were underwhelmed have never been back.

I know. People are so focused on their own experience and forget about others.
Its a shame about Olivia’s. It could be good but it feel quite outdated and not in a good way!
Thanks for following along😊

Wednesday

Today we moved from OKW to Poly Club. This means we need to use up all remaining ddp credits. We started the day with 13 qs credits and 24 snacks.

We left OKW at 9:30 and asked for our bags to be transferred for us. We checked into Poly at 9:45 and got walked over to the Hawaii building. We checked in and got our first Mimosa.
We had breakfast at the club lounge. The lounge was really empty and staff were super friendly.


There are a selection of food and drinks out for you to help yourself from. Easily enough for a good breakfast and it was all very fresh. You can ask staff if you want a alcoholic drink.





The coffee and drink area is open 24/7

Cute Mikey sugar cubes!

View from lounge


We then headed into MK to use some FP and dining credits. Noah got a Peter pan lime slush and Minnie got a lost princess cone. She was fascinated that she could eat the flowers.




We spent some credits in the sweet shop on main st. 5 on fudge to take home for Granny, 1 on a toffee apple for Noah to eat, 1 on a mashmallow peanut treat for Minnie to eat, 4 packets of sweets and 5 lolly pops. 16 in total.


We received confirmation that our room was ready by 1:30 and headed back. The room is lovely! It feels a massive upgrade from OKW and we have a pool view and balcony which is nice. Again I requested the room via Touring plans.


Bonus is that kids have separate
beds!

We had a late lunch at club and a few drinks. Minnie made a friend and enjoyed being able to eat lunch in front of the TV!
Like breakfast there was a help your self selection. There was more than enough for a light lunch. Even Minnie found something to eat!

My lunch; noodles with satay sauce, carrots, cucumber and spring onions. Crisps and dips.

The menu for club dinner each night.

We then went to the pool.

The volcano pool was closed temporarily so we went to the quite pool.

We ordered some food from the Oasis pool bar mainly to get a drink. We used 2 QS credits and 3 snacks.


Fish Taco which James and Noah enjoyed and Minnie ate some chips. They starting eating before i even had the photo!





Sashimi

I do prefer sushi to sashimi but i ate the tuna and James and Noah ate the rest.


I drank a frosty pineapple which is basically a Alcoholic dole whip which was lovely
James had a frose which he enjoyed


We also had Portugese donut with pineapple curd. ( sc) and the kids both had lava smoothies ( sc)



We moved to Volcano pool and the kids loved the slide.
We got the kids food at the
Barefoot pool bar - spent 2 QS and 1 SC

Minnie had chicken nuggets which came with carrots( which she always chokes on, so i had these) and apple slices. She also had some of her brothers chips.



Noah had the Angus chuck burger



I had a Margarita with lime dole whip and James had lava flow( alcoholic version)



Noah had another Lava flow


James and i then got food to take back to the room and had our last pool side drink whilst playing pool and connect 4 with the kids.

Sunshine Margaritas for me with Fish tacos and James had the chicken and avocado wrap and a blue lemonade.



Noah had his final lava flow. “Well we do have credits to spend!” You can imagine the conversation.

Minnie and i went then went to the Poly shop to spend our final 22 credits ( 7 qs and 1 snack)


All done for ddp. It felt a lot of credits even for a weeks stay. Its the first year we have done Disney with 2 sc a day each and the alcoholic drinks being included. We made good use of the alcoholic options and the kids enjoyed choosing snacks. It is a lot of food.
Club and out of pocket for the next week!

So off to club to watch the electric parade and fireworks which were stunning as they play the music into the club lounge.

Dessert offering were;





There was also 5 different wines, including champagne.

We took some snack and drinks to the room and kids crashed within minutes.
