Re: Aaaarrggg! A Pirate Trip Report!
Yay for a CBR TR! Bummer your start wasn't very "Disney". Can't wait to read more about your long stay!

Re: Aaaarrggg! A Pirate Trip Report!
Looking forward to seeing your pics and the pics of the pirate room. Sorry about the room difficulties. I thought you were going to say that the carpet was wet because they shampooed it. Thumbs down to a leaky AC unit.

Re: Aaaarrggg! A Pirate Trip Report!

Re: Aaaarrggg! A Pirate Trip Report!
Okay, that looks like it worked okay, I'll see if I can post some more pics of the Pirate Room....
   The rooms were a lot of fun, I would love to see Disney do more themed rooms in different resorts. It added that extra bit of Disney magic to the room. The kids had a great time steering our ships....I mean our beds!

Re: Aaaarrggg! A Pirate Trip Report!
Now for Day Two....
We had a slower start to the day, enjoying some time to relax and sleep-in (well sleep in as much as you can with three small kids). We had some cereal and pastries for breakfast in our room and by 11am we were off to Magic Kingdom. We did some window shopping down Main Street......here's DF checking out a hat.....  We decided to head over to Adventureland and on the way caught a peek of the Dream with Mickey show.  We stopped for a Dole Whip Ice Cream...yummy! Then we were off to see some Pirates....YoHoYoHo A Pirate's Life for me!! We ate at Pirate El...something or other...can't remember the name off the top of my head....you know the one in Adventureland that serves the yummy tacos etc. Anyway, good as always and we were ready to see some haunts at the Haunted Mansion. So far we had had very little wait times for our rides. It was about DD2's nap time so we piled the kids in the strollers and decided to head off for a walk. We strolled through Fantasyland stopping for a ride on the Carousel and continued on to Toontown. By then DD2 was napping so DH and I took DS6 and DD4 to the Barnstormer. DD4 was not thrilled to be experiencing her first roller coaster and by the time we got to the front of the line she had worked herself up quite a bit. Upon entering the coaster the wonderful CM noticed her tears and told her not to worry. Off we went, she screamed the whole way and at one point I thought she passed out (I think she was too scared to scream anymore). Needless to say she won't be riding that again. Anyway when the ride ended the CM gave each of the kids a card that said, "I rode my first roller coaster, The Barnstormer". DD was much happier after that. After that we went to meet Tinkerbell and the Fairies. The time listed was 75minutes and the strollers were not allowed in the line so we sent DH to stand in line while we let the girls sleep for another 1/2 hour. We caught up with DH and in total the line-up only took 45minutes. It was a long wait but well worth it. Iridessa and Tinkerbell and Silvermist were outstanding, took their time and were wonderful with the kids. After that we walked through Tomorrowland, took a spin with Buzz Lightyear and headed back down Main Street for Dinner at Tony's Town Square. As luck would have it, while we waited for our reservation we had a front row seat to the Celebration Party Parade (I forget the exact name) as it headed up Main Street. Dinner was wonderful and afterward we headed back to the resort for a relaxing evening. Stay tuned for Day Three.....

Re: Aaaarrggg! A Pirate Trip Report!
How cute that disney gives a first timmer a button for ridding the coaster.
Dole whips are awesome:) and that's great to be in the right spot at the right time to have front row seats of the parade. Can't wait to hear more and see more pics.

DS wouldn't get back on a coster for a while after we had him on the Barnstormer for his first Roller Coaster ride, but he got over it pretty quick.

The Barrel houses a fridge inside, and the Pirate Chest (beside the barrel-hard to see) is a large pull-out drawer with extra pillows. The nightstand is in the shape of a barrel as well, and the table is a giant compass. It was so much fun.
