OKW lovers thread !!!

[podsnel]

So after the day, we moved to our new studio which was in the same building but opposite end and up a flight- 2820. This room had a lot more nice little touches like....

No noisy neighbors, but we could hear the buses more from this room, sometimes they sounded like planes! But they stopped in time for sleeping, so we were ok with it- MUCH better than those neighbors were.

More tomorrow from around the resort-

Thanks so much for sharing! Will keep us going until next visit!

Happy you were moved away from the noisy neighbors. Wish folks could be more neighborly & consider the people around them!

DVCzerfs We just checked out of Bld 12 this Am and too thought it was lovely but i think the sprinklers were broke or stuck this am near yall! It was going from very early am to when we left at 11a. REALLY REALLY enjoyed OKW and the HH area. Couldn't have asked for better.

Podsnel, I was gonna post some pics but i have so many that are identical to yours even the lovely yellow spike flower. I may still try to post a few others on here. love your pics!

I'm gonna try not to duplicate all of podsnel's pics since i have so many of the same ones but will post a few here. They may also be on my thread. Trying to space them out some.

My little slice of the golf course view. The other side was vegatation and didn't take a pic of it.

The banana tree outside our room. Our boys wanted to pick them so bad.

We just loved the pool! The boys thought it was great!!

My pic of those wonderfully beautiful yellow flowers!

Our home for our trip to OKW!

Our favorite mode of transportation at OKW!!

Tink's SS- your pics are lovely, I'm so glad you posted them!! You had a nice view from your balcony, too. Oh! And the flower is a Bird of Paradise- it's so funny to me that we took the same pic of it! It really WAS beautiful, though, wasn't it?

Ok- here are the last of mine... breakfast from Goods to Go-

Did someone say frog outside the door??

Going for a bike ride to DTD and back-

I really enjoyed that ride! I highly recommend it! Back at the pool-

On our last night we stoppped in at the Gurgling Suitcase- really enjoyed the bloody mary and the bartender who made it, also the photo albums and the nice guy we chatted with while we were there-

I told Ken i had to take his pic- that I would post it on the DIS and it would probably make a lot of people at home happy to see him!

Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us!!!

Podnsel, thanks for posting Ken's picture. I didn't know his name, but I remember he made the very best Fudge Mudslide. I used to have to go over to Good's to Go to get a spoon for it. Oh, it was so good!

Haha- he made like 10 of them while we were sitting there for restaurant diners. No wonder!

Well me, DH, mom & dad check in at OKW for our first DVC stay and first time at OKW in just under 8 hours. Seems so far away

I wish I could sleep, that would make the quick flight to MCO easier as I won't be fighting a nap. I'll need to call Disney around 7 this morning and ask them to put up the bubble shield that creates a pocket of perfect weather for this week .

I'll have pics when I return!

We love OKW in December! We usually take along Mickey themed lights and hang them on the balcony. We'll be there again Dec. 11-15 this year, but because we are doing the first half of the trip at AKV/concierge, I don't think we'll bother to put our lights up at OKW. I love OKW at holiday time, and I am trying to talk my family into going for the Christmas to New Year's holiday sometime.
