just FYI. i stopped by BouTiki last week and didn't see any of the coconuts on sale.
Oh no, that is disappointing. I guess I’ll just have to mail baby alligators instead.

I saw a little basket of them near the front/middle of the store where the display table is located. This was 7/16-21.It was on the floor and I easily could have missed it.We didn't see them either during our week, 7-19 - 7-26. I really wanted to mail a bunch out.

Popped up on Apple Music just now. Not complaining, but not good when you’d rather be at the Poly!

We have been home for just over a week now, and that song is still stuck in my head from our ‘Ohana breakfast when the restaurant opened. Part of me is still at the Polynesian.
3 weeks!

Unfortunately the two nights we have booked at the Poly end up being two of our busiest park evenings. This post has made me realize we're going to be missing out on so much wonderful resort stuff that I'm now trying to switch our flights to do an earlier MNSSHP so we can having an evening just at the Poly to relax and enjoy it. That's Disney math at it's finest!
After spending a week at the Poly with one Cabana/pool day, I still feel as if I missed out on a lot. We never got to even try to go to Trader Sam's. I didn't get to swim in the Lava Pool at all let alone watch the fireworks from there. We didn't even see them from the beach. I walked by the lovely lady making the real flower leis by hand, but didn't get a chance to get my own. There's just so much to do, and we were too busy. Next time, I want to have at least three resort days.Unfortunately the two nights we have booked at the Poly end up being two of our busiest park evenings.

I agree. For about the first couple of minutes, I looked at the worn carpet in our room. After that, I never noticed it or thought of it again until I read your post.So I just stayed here after a great stay at the wilderness lodge. I will admit, when I first got there I was disappointed because the resort did feel dated, and the carpet was falling of some stairs. Coming from a freshly renovated resort, you just notice it. Even in the rooms, you can tell its older and more run down.. Clean, just showing some age.. Stayed in the villas
With that being said, I ended up falling in love with the place and not even noticing any of that after a day.
The location can NOT be beat. The vibe can not be beat. I loved it so much.
The monorail was great. I will deff stay here again.

I am also guilty of this every trip. I tell myself next time, and then it happens again and I book another trip. Vicious cycle!I'm with you!
I always plan too much and come home wishing I had planned more relaxation time. We usually have a rest/pool day twice in our 9 days but we already decided that next time we need at least 3!
I don't know why I do this because I always love my relaxation days. But there is so much I want to do too! Keep me coming back for sure!!I am also guilty of this every trip. I tell myself next time, and then it happens again and I book another trip. Vicious cycle!
Man, I wish I had a pic of the sorry excuse for a pool bar they set up at the quiet pool back in 2015(ish) when the Lava Pool was under major refurb.
Not sure why that just crossed my mind.
