1st time at OKW...it won't be the last
I am not much for writing trip reports....but I wanted to say a few things. This Sept. was less crowded then last year. Every ride was about a 5 min wait...they didn't even have the fast pass kiosk open. Well not Toy Story we waited about 20 mins each time.... it was at 90 mins at EMH, we didn't go on it then. We also went to Welcome Home Wednesdays at Atlantic Dance Hall. It was a cute little game show...you get refreshments and also everyone got a DVC baseball cap. We stayed at OKW and it was great we were about a minute from everything.

Welcome home. I am glad that you enjoyed your OKW stay..I just got back two weeks ago and LOVED my stay there. I am happy to hear the crowds were not there..they were for us.

Re: 1st time at OKW...it won't be the last
I forgot that even our flights to and from were empty....there was only about 45-50 people.
Also there was no line at ME check-in or a wait for the bus. We got to OKW at 11 am and our from was ready. It was a great and safe trip.
