Gee Raven, it looks in the photos that you guys had an awful lot of rain. I hope you enjoyed some good weather, too.

Had rain on Friday and on Wednesday (6/6/12). Otherwise it was bright and sunny on all of the days we were there. Rain clears out the parks and we take advantage of it. Shows, like Philharmagic, get swamped with people trying to get out of the rain and avoid them. Once the rain stops, then we'll do Philharmagic and/or Country Bear Jamboree.

Does anyone know what size beds the little mermaid section is going to have? Trying to convince DH to stay at AoA in January so our DDs can enjoy the awesome sights there.

They will have two double beds...just like the other value resorts.

So we opened up AoA on 5/31/12 and we stayed in Building 4: Mr. Ray. Here are some of the pics from our room. It was a special access room (handicap) as that's all they had left, but the only difference is the size of the bathroom for wheelchair access.

We've got more pics but these are the ones of the room specifically. Will post more later. Enjoy.

Was this access room one with the roll-in shower or special handle tub? Also, were both bathrooms set up for the special access or just one specific? I have been watching for information on the special access and you have the first that I have found.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Special handle tub. Only the main bathroom was setup for this. The other bathroom, located by the entrance, did not have the special handles.

Thank you, this helps me out quite a bit.

I wanted to know if the tv can be seen from the murphy bed? I know my kids all like to watch tv as they go to bed. Thanks

Thanks for posting the pictures, it helps to satisfy the impatience of waiting to see it in person!

I am sooo excited to stay in the Nemo suite at the end of August! How was the bus service? And is there an arcade?

Great pics Love how the resort looks!!! How were the buses? Was there just one central bus stop?

It looks from the map that the bus stops ar exactly like Pop Century with a separate queue for each park or destination.

sign me up. Love these pics. Can't wait for my stay!

 

[raven69david]

How was the bus service?

The bus service was awesome, but that's because the resort is 1/4 open. Not very many people on the buses and the wait to catch a bus to the park was very short.

And is there an arcade?

The Arcade is near the rear exit to the main pool. It's in the Art of Animation Hall and it's a really nice one. All the latest/greatest games and a huge selection.

It's across from the last few people in this line towards the rear of the picture.

Thank you for the pictures and details. I was also wondering about the beds since we are bringing my mom on this trip.
