We arrived later in the evening that expected on Monday. Traffic through Chicago was smooth, but the Sunday traffic in general was heavier than we expected, especially in and around Nashville. We didn't get as far as we had wanted, which left us on "the wrong side" of Atlanta for the Monday morning rush hour. Sadly we were unable to connect with SilentG, so hopefully another time.
Our 1 BR deluxe unit at Sea Gardens is wonderful . . . nicely furnished with lots of room. Only real complaint is that they don't have the right lighting fixtures in useful locations and no ceiling fans anywhere in the unit. (Almost all Wyndhams we've stayed in have had ceiling fans in both the master bedroom and living room . . . but none here.)
The weather has been decent during the day, albeit hot & humid. Evenings have had some pretty nice lightning and thunderstorms. So far we only spent time around our resort and down at Royal Vista. They are doing guestroom renovations, so while the property is open to have beach access and use their pool, it's pretty much a ghost town there. It was very nice yesterday, as we spent time on the beach and in their pool.
We also met some nice ladies from NY . . . I told them about TUG . . . I hope they find their way over here to learn more about using their timeshare ownership points with Wyndham.
Last night we had a fabulous celebration dinner at The Beach House . . . largely thanks to the $100 g/c we received as part of our "owners' update" we did Tuesday morning. (More about that will be posted in the Wyndham owners' forum.) The dinner and service was amazing! We still spent nearly $100 more . . . but oh so worth it! We also enjoyed quite the vivid AND LOUD thunderstorm during our meal. We highly recommend The Beach House for a great meal.
That's about all I have for now. I'll be posting in the Wyndham Forum next to share our "update" from the sales weasels.
