Everyone arrived safely about 3:30pm. Our GV was not ready until 4pm since the carpets had been cleaned today. The room is spotless, but the carpets were still pretty damp.
The kids all enjoyed the OKW pool and slide and we just ordered pizza thru the resort delivery service. The pizza was pretty good.
After dinner, DW and DDs headed out to publix to get groceries for the week while the SILs and I handled the little ones. I took the 4 older ones (two 5yo, 4 yo and 3 yo) for a bus ride around OKW. We boarded at Peninsular and got off at HH and walked back across the bridge to building 25.
We will head to MK about 8:30am to begin our day and then finish up at MGM after a midday break - swim for the kids and a nap for me!
Since we were "homeless" from 11:00am until the kids arrived, we took a bus to AK and then on to AKL where I was able to get a few photos from various spots around the resort. I took some from the stairwells where Caskbill took some and also got as few from the end of the HCA lot. I got a little "lost" at that point and then found myself at the far end of the construction parking lot and was able to get a few photos from that area. All that is visible at this point is some earthmoving equipment and lots of sewer piping ready to be placed. There is a lot of activity in the area where the new pool complex will be located. I will try to get those photos posted in the next few days.
Weather was pretty good today - temps in the low 80s and little rain. The rest of the week will have scattered thunderstorms and temps around 90.
The DD buses all stop at TL on the way to DD in the morning and on the return trip in the afternoon. The AK bus stops at BB on the way to AK in the AM and on the way back in the PM. Buses have been running about every 20 minutes since we've been here. The new GPS system is pretty nice and the system announces each stop based on the GPS program.
