French Quarter show pics here

If it was anything like the end of Oct. 2010, it was blistering hot and the pools were a necessity.;)

We arrived Nov. 2, 2010 to three days of rain, followed by three days of windy cold, and then four perfect days. We didn't go near the pool. Amazing what a difference a few days can make!

That's right, the first week was just hotter than hot and the second week was not as bad. We were there Oct 25 to Nov 5. Getting up that first week and walking outside at 8 in the morning and having the humidity suck the life out of you was eye opening. Our hottest days up here are as bad but they don't start out that way. I remember one day that second week, we were trapped in the Land building, it was raining Cats and dogs. Locals loved it because it was the first rain in a long time, bought some ponchos and made the best of it.

We've been three times and every time we have arrived in the pouring rain. And every time we've been told that it hadn't rained in a long time and that people were really glad for the rain. I think FL should be paying us to come to WDW whenever they need rain because we seem to bring it with us!

So as to not hijack the thread, here's some pics:

I think you guys and gals have convinced us to give POFQ a try next trip. We have done POR AB three times and need something new. Keep the pictures coming.
 
Here are a few from our July 2010 trip. We got a PIN code so we upgraded to POFQ for one night. This was the first time in a moderate and we LOVED it. We're planning on staying 2 nights at POFQ next year when we go back.

To be honest, I wasn't that impressed with the food court. The beignets were delicious, but I perfer Pop's food court. I didn't like the decorations in POFQs.

Snow White, that was a unique perspective on the pool. Didn't recognize it at first. How about posting some pics over at the POFQ FAQ thread?
 
Snow White, i love all your pictures and thank you for posting them. my favorites are the pool at night and the metal posts with horse heads. I'd have copied them as a quote above, but i can't figure put the picture thing for this DISboards.com.

Cheers!
