Same thing happened to me today with a friend, she's never been but said if she did go she knows she would only go once.As my soon to be 14 year old would say "Whatever"
Sometimes I just say "we're going to Florida" but that reply is wearing thin
It's just wrong. I honestly would feel so badly if all I offered my children and husband for dinner was cheese and crackers and the appetizers that are found at the lounge. That kind of food is meant to be eaten in moderation for the good of one's own health! 
It happens! Love your reports and stories, Erika! Even the club stories, although shocking, always entertaining!! 
It is such a shame that people take advantage of the evening food offerings and make a meal out of them to feed their families.
I hope I don't get flamed for this but if it comes down to staying club or providing your families with meals while at Disney, choose the meals over club. Club is not meant to be a substitute for meals. If that is what one is looking for they will be disappointed. The breakfast is continental breakfast only.
Oh well.
Thanks for the updates and the links to the photos at PB.
I just have to ask though, do they ever check all the folks in line for food in the lounge? I think I already know the answer, but that sounds crazy!!! All those people in line, and the hoarding??? I can totally picture it, but OMG (goodness)!!! I have to worry that there are folks out there who "tag along" with others who are staying CL, or worse yet, somehow manage to get into the building by following along when they see others go in. After all, if a few folks were walking behind you as you entered the building where you are staying, how would you know that they weren't staying there as well?
I do agree with those who've said that some people try to substitute meals with the lounge offerings. I also agree that between choosing CL and a dining plan, I would (and do) choose the dining plan all day long. I really enjoy the experience of the different restaurants. I think it's really rude to try to make a meal for your whole family out of what are supposed to be light snacks.
Ok, back to the important stuff! How much fun you are having, and more photos. Thanks for taking the time! I just realized our trip to Poly is three weeks away!!!!
about the CL hoarders. Luckily, we have not experienced this in our CL stays, but I've seen so many reports of it. It's crazy!
Lurking, but quite enjoying the live report!
I have to give a big
I just don't understand how someone could clear out a tray when there is a line of people behind them (or anytime really). It's just not nice, and uncalled for.
