Day 1:
Day one started out with waking up at 5am to catch our 9am flight (DH and I). We then got to the airport around 7:30 after grabbing some breakfast and headed on our flight to Disney!!!
Our flight was great, flew Southwest, and arrived early and then we got to Old Key West and waited NO time in line for DME.
Our other party was driving and didn't arrive for a while...we waited around for a few hours and just explored the resort. We love OKW, upon arriving we went straight to the bar! Once our family got here, we checked in and then headed to Olivias for lunch. My family LOVED it, and the cuban sandwhiches were fab!!!
After lunch we then headed over to our room...luckily all our requests were granted! 1st floor, and our 3 rooms in the same building AND in the building we requested!! Woohoo!!!
AFter that my neice and I then went for a quick dip and a nice soak in the hot tub!!
We swam for a few hours and then went back to the room to get ready for HOop De Doo!
We had great seats, and had an incredible time at Hoop! Our waiter, Bor, was so so so funny! My neice, who is 4, had 4 chicken legs! She loved it! Our whole group really enjoyed the food! My other neice, who is 8, got picked for the show! She was SOOOo excited! She did great...she was like a cowboy or something..but she did really well considering she usually gets very shy.
Well thats our first day! Tomorrow Chef MIckeys for breakfast and then the MK, and dinner at LTT! :D

Next time my Dad goes to DW with us I think we need to go to the Hoop De Doo review the Old Horseshoe review at DL was his favorite.
