OKW Pool
We are booked for the BWV in August but with the new August - September special if we change to OKW we can save over $1000.00 on the trip. My DD
 is worried that OKW does not have a slide because I can't find a picture of it on the WDW website. Can someone please assure her that there is a waterslide at OKW.

Re: OKW Pool
Daisee is right, OKW has a slide. The pool was redone a few years ago so it's very nice.
Here are a lot of OKW photos, including more pictures of the slide: Old Key West Photos

Funny slide story: We were there a few years ago when the slide was opened in January. It was a really cold day, but to christen it a whole bunch of castmembers went down in their clothes. It was so much fun cheering them on!  The pool's great - your DD will love it. (Also 3 other quiet pools).

Re: OKW Pool
We actually prefer the pool at OKW over the BW. The rollercoaster slide is cool, but DD like the beach area behing the lighthouse slide.
