We stayed at Pop Century on Thanksgiving and Black Friday.  That resort is HUGE.  We stayed in the 90’s building which was so far away from the lobby/ bus stops  On Black Friday, we finally realized it was easier to walk through the parking lot rather than the resort to get to the front of the resort.

I never got to the 50’s area because as I said, the place is HUGE.  We spent Black Friday at the other resorts – 8 hours in the morning and then 3 hours in the evening  – so there was not much exploring Pop Century happened on Black Friday.

Once again, I have slide shows with descriptions of each of the photos.  You can pause the slide show and advance the photos yourself.
