    Still looks like a lot of work to do. The good thing is, it seems to be a lot of workers on different parts of the renovation.

    Look at it this way, there are 168 hours until they open. If there are, lets say, 200 workers working around the clock at any given time, that's 33,600 hours. I don't see 33,600 hours of work left to be done. Granted, there are some specialty jobs like electrical that could trip them up but I think they've got this handled.

    I still see the curve at the feet. I think they just stacked them up and chained them due to the storm last night / today.

    They look to white or solid to be the same as these. I am not even sure these chairs are stack able like that

    Wow looks pretty good to me so far. Glad to see some interior pictures posted.

    Would have to agree that not all the chairs look comfortable, but maybe looks are deceiving, and the dude is a better furniture designer than we think. People do like them craftmatic beds, and they always show the hump down by the feet, haha.

    It looks to me like there is some work to be done, but it doesn't seem like too much based on how well they have been doing and making fast progress. One thing that might not be done is the front mosaic tile work. That's a big job and there hasn't been huge amounts of progress in the two weeks. But seriously who cares about this, once you walk in the front door, you won't see it again and you leave (in my case anyway).

    I'd say one of the biggest things the first few days that they probably will struggle with is the food service. I can't imagine they are getting huge amounts of training in the kitchens themselves in this next week. It isn't like they will be making tons of food for an empty resort. Waiting tables and bar service will probably still be on point, but sometimes it takes time and practice to get a kitchen to operate efficiently. With the "soft opening" that's one thing I am expecting not to be a well oiled machine, and there will probably be some extended wait times and buffet items missing/left empty.

    Also, not sure if anyone noticed my post yesterday, but it's sad to see the Mexican restaurant has been removed from the list. Perhaps they didn't plan on opening it yet, or maybe they know it won't be ready.

    Very happy to see the regular pool chairs arrive. Now how about a few umbrellas in the new color schemes?

    The wire mesh ones seem fine for people watching and reading, but I was kind of in a panic on how Mrs Doctor Jane was going to work on the cute tan line, if she can't lay flat on her stomach? I guess you could flip one of the wire ones over?
