We haven't taken the buses often but I thought we were always first on, last off?

That's always what I've seen. Think about it from a common sense perspective. First on to give the most manuevering room getting the wheelchair in place on the bus. First off makes no sense, it's more logical to let as many people off the bus as you can first for the same reason.

::yes::

In addition, why hold up the other riders from going on to a park or their hotel while the chairs are unstrapped, etc..

We ride the bus a lot (over more than 15 years, too) and it's always been first on. And, if you are going someplace with only one stop (like the parks), wheelchairs/ecvs are always unloaded last.
The times that we have gotten on a bus that is already partially loaded (like at a resort with mutliple bus stops), it is harder to manouver because there might be people where you need to go.

Sue, my husband, oldest son and his fiancee all think that the volcano pool at the Polynesian has a depth of around 4.5 feet at its deepest. In talking further with my DH, he says that it is graduated so some parts are probably only around 3 feet (besides the obvious slope of zero entry). The deepest areas are near the waterfall. The "quiet" pool at the Polynesian is still perhaps six feet deep at the South end with a graduated depth. That pool is not zero entry though.

The quiet pool at the GF he remembers as rather shallow throughout. The zero entry pool he thinks is pretty much like the Polynesian although when I first asked him his overall impression was around 3 feet. We've only had three stays at the GF though and two of them were in very cold weather.

Although I don't swim so much these days, I spend a fair amount of time watching DS2 in the Polynesian volcano pool. He is 5 feet tall and in the center area of the pool that he seems to prefer, the water is about up to his chest.
Thanks. I didn't walk to all parts of the SSR main pool, but the only part I missed was the part right by the slide exit. The whole pool is pretty shallow though. I couldn't swim without hitting my feet on the bottom. The only people I actually saw swimming in it were kids.
We visited the GF, but didn't go in the pool. I didn't check out the depth because at that point, wee had not been swimming yet at SSR, so it didn't occur to me that the pool depth might be a problem.
The pool at SSR looked smaller than the one at GF. That might be the problem. You need a pretty big pool to have the slope of the zero entry go to 48 inches.
