What Time is the 4 o'clock Rain? -- Updates 11/2-4 -- Tim's surprise and Marco&Recap

That OKW pool is so beautiful and relaxing! I'm bummed I didn't try the Turtle Krawl when we stayed there last year. Next time!!
 
Old Key West looks really nice. I may have to look into it next time. Do you own DVC, rent points or go through Disney?
 
Like you, we like our park time but we also enjoy our resort time. Your morning looks nice and definitely relaxing. Once again, I have to say it...if only Old Key West had a beach so I could talk John into staying there.
 
Great 2 updates! You know how much I love the Steakhouse! We ate there twice in one week. :) It cannot be beat. You both looked so nice in the Anniversary dinner photo.

Isn't it nice to enjoy an off park day? A vacation within the vacation.

Read you soon! :surfweb:
 

Those steaks looked yummy!! I am very excited for Jiko!! And let me clarify the girls are going to the Simba's for fun not because they do not know how to behave in a restaurant . I have traveled with them since they were itty bitty and they know if they act up they will be on a one way flight to Tomorrowland. HA HA. I am big on manners but am lucky they are good kids. Can' t wait to get back to OKW in May!!

And then I had it...my favorite drink in all of Disney World


The BEST drink in all the world!

Well...other than maybe a few of the margaritas at The Ditch :thumbsup2

What a lovely morning! I hope to try breakfast at Olivia's one of these days, we do have dinner reservations there in Jan and I am hoping maybe Mary Ellen and I hit it for breakfast one day in May.
 
Yay! a leisure day!

I am glad you enjoyed breakfast at Olivia's. We love it there.

Would you believe that we have NEVER been IN the main pool. We usually enjoy the quiet pool. But your photos look so nice, well maybe next time we might even head to the main pool.
 
Hey your toe nails look like the same color I have on mine right now.

I did some laundry last week also. I just sit at the quiet pool and relax. I may need to just do a pool (and adult beverage) day in May. DH is not a resort pool person. The chlorine makes his sinuses go crazy.

I have not tried the Turtle Crawl yet. I usually get the Piña Colava. Do they have it only at OKW?
 
There's that Turtle Krawl! I knew it would make an appearance! How nice to build in a relaxing day at the pool! I had to chuckle at the pool rules sign - "bathing load" can't say pool capacity?? But my favorite - don't swallow the pool water. Just a warning to anyone who is extremely thirsty I suppose. :rotfl2:

I wonder how much that sauna gets used in August?? :rolleyes:

I'm tempted to book a breakfast at Olivia's since you've seemed to have good luck there. We'd have to take a taxi since using the buses wouldn't be so convenient. But with any hidden gem, I'm sure there's a trade off.

Thanks for the heads up about Bob's travel dates. I didn't know he was there at the same time. For some reason I only saw mention of his June dates. I'll have to PM you guys. :)
 
Looks like a nice relaxing morning! One of these trips I'm going to slow down enough to sit at the pool for a while. Not happening next week as Jim doesn't even own a swim suit!

I was afraid that the Boardwalk Bakery didn't have any seating. That's what I remember from being there last year. I'll probably still check it out so I can take some pictures for Mom. We are just trying to find a counter service somewhere near or on the way to the wedding venue, Seabreeze Point, for lunch. We don't have park tickets for that day or I would suggest heading into Epcot.
 
Great update Kathy... The pool at OKW looks marvelous! It just looks like such a relaxing resort.

I think you do your days off like they should be done... Just relaxing by the pool. I hope to fit a day like this into our next trip. :)

D~
 
Nice updates, Kathy! Yachtsman really looks like a great place for us to try on our next "just us" trip!:thumbsup2 I'm glad you were able to wait for a nice quiet table for your anniversary dinner. Not cool of people to let their children run amuck at a place like that.

Ahhh, your pool day is shaping up nicely. Looks like you both got your relaxation on!
 
Oh what a LOVELY morning!!!! even more lovely DRINK!!! :thumbsup2

i just love your reports!!


regarding kids... YES bad parent's = worse kids!!!! I just wish people/kids had RESPECT... :headache:
 
what a wonderful morning to relax and sip a favorite drink :thumbsup2 the pool area looks so fun!

we did the same with Megan...her first trip was a 1 month old, we didn't change our lifestyle to much, just incorporated her into ours! Parents don't do their kids justice if they don't teach them how to behave in public places!
 
Loved your relaxation day!!

It sounds just lovely, and I actually found myself sighing longingly a few times looking at your pictures! Haha!

The pool looks wonderfully not crowded at all and that drink looks yummy!

Looking forward to reading about your shopping excursion!!
