Samawati Springs Pool? Double Barrel Slide?

[jerseygal]

There was a recent post on the DisResorts Board asking questions about the new Samawati Springs Pool..I think it was entitled Animal Kingdom Water Park or something similar..Anyway, the question was whether or not Animal Kingdom Guests could use the new Kidani facilities.

I recently searched the internet and found an article from DVC News quoting DVC sales Director Mike Brunson as saying that ALL GUESTS of Animal Kingdom could use the pool. I guess that means hotel guests of the Lodge as well. That was my interpretation anyway..

My question is someone posted info on double barrel slide at Samawati Springs?

Anyone have more info on that?

Much thanks..Will it really be operational you think by summer, 2009?

Thanks as always!

Yes, it has already been posted that just like BCV and VWL, guests at AKV will all be able to use the resorts pools, regardless of being members or non members. Given that the pools at AKV will be quite a distance away from each other, there probably won't be as much traveling from pool to pool as one would think, though.
