12) No DVD players in any DVC studios, but I think you can rent one. We just use our laptop and play it over the TV.

We've had DVD players at Kidani, Jambo, BLT, BWV, BCV, VB, VWL and GCV studios. I'll have to look at OKW pictures although our last stay the studio was one of the few that wasn't refurbed yet.

Actually - just went to allears and found this studio photo showing the DVD.

And here was a non-refurbed studio in case there are any of those remaining:

Hmmmm - hadn't seen photos of the old and new together before. The paint job in the remodel really stands out when looked at that way.

Ah, that's different since we last stayed in one, but we don't really stay in studios.

1) The store will be closed then, so make sure you get some at the airport.

2) No DVD players in any DVC studios, but I think you can rent one. We just use our laptop and play it over the TV.

3) It used to be that there were small playgrounds at each of the neighborhood pools, but I seem to recall they took those out. There is a toddler sand are with HUGE sand pail etc behind the sandcastle slide near the main pool. I believe there is a wading pool there as well.

There have been DVD players in the OKW studios for several years now. The VCRs are now in the Smithsonian.

There still is a children's wading pool near the main pool.

I think it was around 2003 when we had to change rooms during our stay at OKW because there was a plumbing issue in the first room.

We had brought a few vhs tapes to watch some stuff we had recorded at home, tv shows and movies, and the first room had a vcr.

The second room had a dvd player and the vhs tapes didn't fit!

That was the last time I saw a vcr in a DVC room.

I will be there the 8th-13th which I believe is marathon weekend. I was there last year during that time and it was perfect! So we will probably be there the same time.

Wonderful. I have read that being at OKW is the best place to be to get to the starting area.

I only run unless Dave is chasing me!!!!!!!!!! lol He will be the only one running. He did the 1/2 marathon up here in Providence and got a great time, so he is very excited. I can't wait for him to get the medal!

We love OKW....stay here all the time.

"Welcome Home" and can't wait to see you down there.
