Isn't this a pretty place?

As I was scrolling through, I thought you said, "Isn't this a pretty face?" While it is a very pretty face, I thought you were talking about being unhappy with the delay and heat! :rotfl2: So glad you were able to meet up even if just for few minutes. :goodvibes
 
Wow the inside of OKW is gorgeous! I can't wait to get to check it out with Tink's family :thumbsup2

Bella is too funny, cramming herself in such a small place :rotfl:

Love reading about DIS meets :goodvibes
 
Bella is so funny :rotfl:

OKW looks very pretty. The timestamps on your pictures showed exactly how long your wait was, you weren't exaggerating :eek:
 
Flying to Disney is a wonderful thing but at times don't you just wish you had a car?
I know I do!:goodvibes

Brooklynn and Bella's outfits were so cute! Very Key Westy indeed!
I have no problem with rotten girls when they aren't my own....;)
 

Very cute outfits yes! And I remember really liking OKW when we were there last summer. Pretty. Big ominous cloud.... :eek:
 
LOL at Bella's game...I've had to play that game a few times too.

OKW looks beautiful and peaceful. Add that to a place I would like to visit.
 
I have only seen OKW from the drop offs and ons with Magical Express and trip reports. I like the looks of the pool area and resort, hope we stay there sometime. It was one pool hopping pool we did not make it too, perhaps next summer there and SSR....
 
Bella and my nephew like to play the same game

She's very good at it. :laughing:


OKW is very pretty!!!

Bella's game is too funny!!!

Old Key West seems to get some negative reviews, but I want to try it sometime. I love all of the tropical feeling resorts. It will be interesting to see if tinkgurl and her family get a 'new' OKW room.




Bella cracked me up! I remember those days. I am interested in seeing the OKW refurb also. I have been swamped since yesterday. My mother-in-law and I canned tomatoes, broke beans and cut corn before freezing them, all yesterday. If you have ever done that before, you know how exhausting. I have new appreciation for my grandmother now.

Oh, my goodness!
You know how to get to a country girl's heart! Yes, I have canned tomoates, snapped beans, and cut corn. I am coming to your house to eat on corn night! :thumbsup2 I used to get several dozen ears from an older couple from church. He would park the truck in the church parking lot and sell it during the week. It was so good. Both he and his wife passed away a couple of years ago, and I think of good old Walter every time I see ears of corn. He was so proud of his crop!



The postcards arrived guys; they are great and will be perfect for the surprise announcement. Hopefully we will make it to JFK before we let him in on our little secret.

Glad your boat finally arrived. That sounded like a long wait.

Pooksma and I both thought the "Welcome Home" balloons were pretty cool.

I am glad to know they arrived. :cool1:

I think we hung out for about fifteen minutes before they had to go to their Olivia's ADR. I want to eat there sometime, too.

Love reading about DIS meets

You are about to embark on a few DIS meets of your own next week! :banana:

You'll have to give us plenty of OKW pictures, since we didn't get to take any. Poor Stacey, she said she even cleaned the room for us! :laughing:

Bella is a mess. She thinks she's a little bit cute and a little bit funny ;)

I know I do!

Brooklynn and Bella's outfits were so cute! Very Key Westy indeed!

I wouldn't mind having a car, as long as it also came with a driver. :thumbsup2 If I were driving, we'd end up in the real Key West, because I'm really good at getting lost! :eek:



Very cute outfits yes! And I remember really liking OKW when we were there last summer. Pretty. Big ominous cloud....

It rained for the next couple of hours. Brooklynn and I ended up walking in the rain to the bus stop to get to another DIS meet. That will be coming up in the next few posts.



LOL at Bella's game...I've had to play that game a few times too.

OKW looks beautiful and peaceful. Add that to a place I would like to visit.

We've visited there a few times now, but would love to stay there for at least a few days. You could spend a good portion of a trip just enjoying the resorts.

You have to talk Hannah into a Disney trip first. :laughing:



I spy my dad's nose...

Bella's game is so cute!

I didn't see that! You guys were already there! The group pictures should be in the next batch then.
 
Bella and Brooklynn are so cute! It sounds like you guys had a really long wait for a boat. But glad you made it over to OKW.

Ha ha! It is already booked... honestly she is excited to go to all the parks again and have my parents with us. She is spoiled in the fact she sees them almost everyday, our trip plus their vacation made it a whole two weeks of no grandma and boo- boo. The question with her will be where we stay... she is like Miss Anita in the fact she loves the Beach Club!
 
Bella played on of her favorite games. It's called Get in the Smallest Space You Can Find and Watch the Grown-ups Try to Come and Get You.

Looks like Bella and Aileen like the same game. I can't imagine the kind of trouble those two could cook up!
 
Bella's game is too funny! Amy played the same game, too. Emily was always very close to us so she never wondered off.
I never had any interest of staying at OKW before until I saw your pictures. Maybe next summer we'll rent points for there.
Sorry you had to wait so long for a boat.
 
Ok now I want to stay at OKW. your reports are not good for my budget. :0)

A little late throwing my 2 cents in but I had that same pain upon waking. Just awful. The only thing that helped me was Crocs. I know some people love them and some people hate them. I would put them on as soon as I got up and were them all ay and after a while the pain went away. I am firmly in the I Love them catagory after that.
 
Great start can't wait to read more!Love to visit the other resorts also but POP is our families favourite.

We did make it, and Stacey forgave us for making her wait so long! :)

I bet grandma was not in too good of shape after two weeks without her kiddies, either. I don't like not seeing my girls for two weeks, but that's about average for us. :sad1:

It's good that Miss Anita Wigd and Mr. Marc so graciously share their place with others when they are not there. :goodvibes

Don't you know it?!?!? :eek:

I would have gotten so many more, but time and weather were not cooperating that day.

I wear Crocs at school every day. I did some of the ball rolling stuff this morning. Isn't it just horrible to stand up first thing in the morning??? :scared1:

I really enjoy visiting the resorts a lot. When a friend and I went on a short trip once, we went to one park for one day and went only to other resorts and DTD the other days. She was on a limited budget, and I was not going to the parks since Jill couldn't go. We still had a blast!


*********************************

Brooklynn very much enjoyed making her visor.

Here's the picture of the DIS group.

I had threatened to give Ben bunny ears. ;)

Dancin_Princess, we got your whole dad in that one! :goodvibes

After the picture, Brooklynn got a purple balloon dog from a CM who was making them at the desk.

I believe I might have video of that. If Jill can find it, she can load it.

As the group disbanded, Stacey and family went to their ADR, and the rest of us went to the gift shop.

It was pouring down rain. We were supposed to meet *dreamit*doit* at Magic Kingdom in just a little while. Jill had a bad headache and was tired, so it was decided that Brooklynn and I would go to Magic Kingdom and Jill, John, and Bella would get a cab back to the room.

Brooklynn and I had to walk to the nearest bus stop in the rain, since the one at the main OKW building was closed. It wasn't a bad walk, though, and a Magic Kingdom bus came within just a few minutes of us walking up.

That's it for tonight.
 
Memom, thanks for the updates.
Love the members picture wall.
Can't wait to read more and see more pictures. :thumbsup2


I have the feet/heel thing going on too.....:sad1:

What a lovely DIS group!
Boooo for the rain!!!
I'm off to the mall and a few other places to run errands soon. I'll try my best to get some Disney Store pictures for you.:goodvibes
 
I just love DISmeets! You all look like a bunch of nice people and isn't that a Memom I spy in that picture? lol

OKW looks awesome and so does their shopping! Looks like Brooklynn made out like a bandit. A visor and a balloon animal. Lucky little girl!

I think DH and I and youngest DD are going to take your advise when we take DD to college in August. I think we are actually going to stay at All Star Music (never been there) and resort hop and shop! Then we'll actually save the parks for our December trip (Lord willing). Thanks for the suggestion.

Loving the trip so far...
