Thank you, thank you, catne, for your reply
- let explain why I was asking where check-in and luggage is. We're going to FQ for my mom and DD's birthdays, which are 4 days apart in September, and I'm trying to make it as much of a surprise as I can. We live close enough so that I can tell them I'm working a partial day, but instead, go the resort, check-in, and hopefully get in the room to decorate, then go home, pick up everyone, pretend I'm checking in, and hopefully have a nice little surprise all set up - that's Plan A.
If I can't get in the room, I'll still have checked-in, and will have the check-in package with the keys and room number, so I want to be able to send my mom, daughter and nephew to luggage check to get Mom's scooter, and sneak away to decorate our room for them, so I want about 15 or so minutes to be able to slip way and disappear. I know it won't take them nearly that long, but I'm hoping, with my nephew's help, I can get just that little bit of time in the room alone before they get there. I won't be able to do much, but it'll be better than nothing!
Now I need to know if there's a way to sneak past them and get to the guest room buildings - like most of the gift shops at the resorts have a 'street' entrance, some of the main buildings have a couple of doors. Does anyone know if there's a door like that, where I could go in by check-in, but sneak right back out, out of sight of the outside luggage area? I'm sorry to be a pest, and keep asking questions, but I need to be prepared for this to work - it'll ruin it if they see me trying to get past them!
I should really put a Plan C in place just to be on the safe side! Maybe if I can't sneak past them, just admit defeat -sort of- and tell them to take a load off, go eat a few Beignets,
and just be completely mysterious why, and then call when I want to come up to the room! It would be a lot easier!
