We returned to the pool around 7 tonight. There were even fewer people at this time. Temps were down to 75 and sun was hiding from view, so was a bit on the chilly side. The slides were still open. I believe they close for the night at 8pm when the movie begins.
Something I hadn't mentioned earlier is they have security guards outside the pool area that check for the wrist bands and open the gate for guests to get in.
My daughter and I are both terrible swimmers and would never go down a regular water slide, but we love these micro pools at the end of the slides. They're a lot of fun.
Also, the blue slide has more twists and turns, so you go a little slower, so it can be a bit more fun for the little kids. The orange one goes a bit faster and is fully enclosed. You hit the little pool sorta fast, but it's really fun.
We decided to order a pizza to eat while watching the movie and found a good view. The movie tonight was Ratatouille. We opted to only watch half the movie, then head back to the room to watch the fireworks at 9pm.
The pizza was just a generic pizza, nothing over the top spectacular, however, the listed price does include 4 soft drinks, so that makes the $25 price tag not seem quite so bad.
The view of the fireworks was impressive and definitely a fun and unique perspective. We'll have one more night to enjoy that view while hopefully getting to see it in the park again Saturday night before heading home.
So far the stay has been really enjoyable. Everyone we've interacted with has been friendly and accommodating. I think our favorites have been the valet staff. They're very energetic and eager to help. This morning before going to the pool, I had one grab my sunglasses from the car that I forgot to grab.
Then tonight when we were getting ready to go somewhere, we called the front desk and had them get the car for us. We had to wait a couple minutes once we were down there, but it's been convenient for a family that's never used valet before.
We even saw the guy that helped with our luggage last night and he gave a quick friendly "hey guys, how's it going!" when he recognized us.
