I had booked a room at the Polynesian Resort with a water view. We were upgraded at check in and we had this fabulous view.
Yes, that is Cinderella Castle! Not only did we have a water view, we had a perfect view of the Magic Kingdom. We were upgraded to the concierge building and down the hall from us was the concierge lounge. We had access to snacks, drinks, and supper each day. The 'adult' drinks were the icing on the cake. We were able to watch the fireworks each night from our room. It was just amazing.
Our first morning, we headed over to Chef Mickey's at the Contemporary Resort for our character breakfast. I love doing these character meals because the characters will come around to your table for pics and autographs. No need to stand in line at the parks.
Here are some pics from our breakfast:
We were fortunate to have my parents along with us this time. It was their very first trip to Disney! Here they are at the Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom.
One of my favorite parts was Jenna's birthday breakfast at Cinderella Castle in the Magic Kingdom. We made our reservations early enough where we could enter the park BEFORE it opened. I highly recommend that! The walk down Main Street was amazing. Very few people walking around at that time, and there was more time to actually look at the neat things there.
I got some great shots of the castle on our way to breakfast.
Inside the castle, we met Cinderella.
Once we were in the dining room, more princesses came around to our table. Cinderella had left Jenna a birthday card and all the other princesses signed it for her. Unfortunately, my batteries in my camera died right at that time, but Alyssa saved the day with her camera!! I would have been so disappointed without any pictures of my girls with the princesses.
One last picture for now...love this pic of Jenna and Kenneth.
Lots of magical memories made that week. Definitely a vacation to remember! I'll post more pics soon!

I'm so jealous! Lucky duck! I miss Disney :) I agree, the character meals are great! I want to take Blake for one, I am debating between the one @ the Polynesian or Chef Mickeys. Looks like you had a blast!
