We arrived last night. We had a great flight from Indy and even arrived about 10 minutes early.
There was no line at DME and a bus was waiting. Total time from arrival at the gate until leaving the airport was 25 minutes. 35 minutes later we arrived at OKW where, again, there was no line at the front desk (but, it was 8:30pm). Everything was in order - we had already gotten an email from OwnersLocker, letting us know that our locker had been delivered to OKW - and while waiting to leave Indy, I got a call from Garden Grocer to let me know our order was at Bell Services.
When we checked with Bell Services, they informed us that our Locker and our groceries had already been delivered to our villa , so all we had left to transport was our carry-on bags.
We are in building 24 and our villa is spotless with new linens and new style sofas. We have a golf course view and look across at building 19/20 with a pond both to our left and right. It's a short walk to either the Peninsular Road bus stop or over to HH.
I asked about the internet service and was told it was now free for DVC Members. I logged on and we now need to enter the last 10 digits from our room ID which then takes us to another screen where the following appears:
Thank You!
PAYMENT DETAILS: Clicking below will provide you with 24 Contiguous Hours of access to the Internet starting with the minute the connection is made. The access fee of $9.95 will be charged to Room kwid-XXXX-XXXX-01. The access fee is non-refundable and will appear as a charge on your folio. This charge does not apply to Disney Vacation Club Members.
I don't know if guests/renters will be charged or not - but from the way this is worded it appears that only DVC members may have the fee waived since they can verify DVC membership based on the fact that each room ID has a specific guest name. Stay Tuned.
Weather is HOT - humidity was not too bad at arrival, but an increase is predicted this week. Temps were upper 80's yesterday with low 90's thru the weekend with a "cool-off" for early next week - back into the uper 80's. This morning offers cloudless blue skies and light breeze so far.
We're heading out now for a few hours. We have a lunch ADR at Coral Reef this afternoon, as well as other plans during our stay at Narcoosee's, Le Cellier and CA Grille.
More later...

We'll be at OKW in... er.. how many days does that ticker say? Glad to hear everything is running extra smoothly so far!
DH will be so relieved to know he'll have his internet when we go next month. I wouldn't want him to have withdrawals
