Tuesday Update -
Wow - that is so funny that the picture I took at the campfire had Disneyaholic's son in it. I hadn't thought about it but after taking the picture I wasn't real sure about the etiquette as far as taking pictures with strangers in them. What is the consensus - is that okay to do?
Sorry, it's been so long to do another post but DW and myself have been very busy. Yesterday afternoon we went out by the pool. It was rather crowded but we were able to find lounges. I was a little disappointed I couldn't get a wifi signal there. I was trying to connect with my iPhone but had no luck.
Last night we ate at the Big Bamboo Cafe. It was okay, but I don't think we'll go out of our way to eat there again with all of the other options there are. The decor is really interesting though. I had a hamburger and DW had a chicken sandwich. Both were fine.
This morning we got up and decided to take a little trip. We first drove over to Bluffton. Wow - that is one neat little town. DW and I seriously discussed could we move there. We drove out to the May River and it is just so picturesque. Then we went by that Church by the river that is so historic (can't remember the name). It was very neat. The plan had been to then go back to the resort and have a ham sandwich for lunch before going out on the beach. Well that ham sandwich sure didn't sound that great, so I asked DW if she would like to continue and drive on to Savannah and have lunch there. She said sure, why not.
We didn't do a whole lot in Savannah except walk up and down the river front area and then we had lunch at a restaurant with a New Orleans menu. I think it was called Huey's. Anyway, the food was great. I had an oyster Po'boy and DW had a shrimp salad sandwich. We finished up with beinets for dessert.
After that, we headed on back home. We then went out on the beach for about 2-3 hours. It was so pleasant and there was a nice breeze. I did find a sand dollar (which I released) and we both saw a sting ray in the water. Kind of surprised us seeing the sting ray so close to shore.
We then went back home (notice how I keep calling it that) and after showering, I went out and got the charcoal going in the grill. I cooked hamburgers for supper and really had no problems using the grill. Just use more charcoal than you think you need and move the grill down close to the embers. One question about the grills, what is the etiquette as far as cleaning them. Should I go tomorrow morning and throw the embers away or does the resort staff do that?
We ate out on the porch and it was so nice overlooking the water. DW made the comment "it doesn't get any better than this." That one comment made our
DVC membership all worthwhile.
After cleaning up the kitchen and all, we walked over to Shelter Cover. Tonight is fire works night and there is a mass of people over there. After walking around some, we came back home again. DW and I agreed why stay over there to watch the fireworks, when we can just step out our door and see them from the resort.
Well, that's about it. I've updated my photos with pictures from this morning.
I can't remember what all the questions were that folks have asked. I do know they have porch rockers in the studios. I'm not sure about the golf discounts. Yes, you can drive over to Pametto Dunes, just show your parking pass to get in.
Oh, someone mentioned about the 1BR's. We've decided to just stay in 1BR's when at HHI, even though we usually just stay in studios at WDW. It is just so nice having the kitchen here as well as the washer and dryer (in fact, I'm drying some clothes right now). The way we have our points setup, we can stay in a 1BR every 2 years and then the 3rd year we'll have to use our VWL points, so we can get caught back up.
But it's best that there is nothing else there to make him self-conscious while he's still learning! 
How funny is that!! Your poor son is going to be on the lookout for cameras from now on, never knowing when one of those pictures might be posted here!
