Tuesday - Weather: High 76, low 55. Mostly sunny. Wind S 9. Above average already after very cold Sunday. Average is 74 and 52.
This morning we went to another meeting with Wyndham representatives, and they answered some questions we had about our membership in the new Access Program.  This is the second meeting, and they pay us $100 each time, so I was surprised they wanted to meet again.  I'm sure they sell enough timeshare stuff doing this, or it wouldn't happen.  After lunch we went to Disney's Boardwalk.  It costs nothing to get in or to park, and I'm sure they figure you will buy something in the shops or have a meal at one of the restaurants.  We go and walk around the small lake, sit and watch people, and take the free boat ride.  There are 5 very nice large Disney resorts around the lake, a very nice children's pool area, a small beach, and lots of pretty flowers.  There are two outlets to the lake - one goes to Epcot Center and the other goes to Hollywood Studios.  The boat is a shuttle that takes people to 5 stops near the resorts and Disney attractions.  We just ride it around, because it's fun to go for a boat ride!  Late afternoon, we stop at an ice cream shop in the Beach Club resort and get root beer floats.  Very good, but costs $10 for two!  On the way back to the resort, we stopped at Publix for a few groceries and supper - chicken and some potato salad. (Sounds like a picnic!)


Wednesday - Weather: High 80, low 61. Mostly sunny. Wind SE 5. 
Went for lite lunch at the Windmill restaurant at the club house at the golf course in Celebration, very nice place.  Only had soup and half-sandwich - soup was lobster bisque, very good.  Walked a little looking at pretty flowers, then we went to the library for new books and read the Orlando paper and some magazines.  We get the USA Today delivered every morning at the resort, but it has very little FL news or Orlando news.  Next we went to downtown Celebration for coffee, tea, and some coffee cake.  (Taking a break from our usual scone!)  We sat in the shade and read our books until late afternoon, then back to the resort.  We took a walk over to the rec center for free popcorn and a diet coke, lite supper here. 


Thursday - Weather: High 84, low 64. Mostly sunny. Wind S 10. 
After breakfast, we went to the library, then to get groceries at Super Target, followed by lunch at Miller's Ale House - they have great hamburgers.  We took good naps because we pick up Diane and her girls, Brooke and Paige, at the airport at 10:50. They are staying until Monday, so lots of fun ahead.

 That's the south side of the resort.

Do you like blue?

Near one of the entrances to the resort, there is a small stream that has this small dam.

View from our balcony at dusk.  Fountain is lighted at night.  In the far distance, the white fence is around pool 2.  About halfway over there on the right side (out of view) is pool 1 and a small playground area.

Same view, but at sunrise.

Along the walk to pool 2.
