Okay, okay quit your whining. . .here's your new post. :) (Becky AND Gus!!!)
I got back Sunday night from my trip to Flori-DA! I had absolutely the BEST time ever. Here's a small recap:
Sunday: Arrived at Ritz-Carlton in Orlando. Way fancy hotel! Got to see the former President Bush talk and then see the Doobie Brothers live. Man they're old, but they can still get a crowd going.
Monday: Relaxed and got a massage. Love those!
Tuesday: Texas Roadhouse Humanitarian Day. I helped install a walkway at a camp for disabled children. It was hard work, but so, so, so worth it! Then went to a professional baseball game. Rays vs Blue Jays - first time I've ever seen a professional one! Later that night we went to downtown Disney to eat and walk around. We had a cab driver that was super scary - we all think he was on drugs or something. It was a very eerie feeling in that cab.
Wednesday: Went to Discovery Cove and got to snorkel, feed and pet birds, and swim with a dolphin! Our dolphin, named Capricorn, was in Jaws 3. Absolutely awesome!
Thursday: Went to Sea World for the first time! Shamu rocks! Then drove to Daytona Beach and walked in the Atlantic Ocean.
Friday: Went to Walt Disney World - Epcot. Did all there is to do there and stayed for the fireworks at night. So cool!
Saturday: Adam's mom and I hit WDW hard core! We did all 3 remaining parks in about 13 hours time. We couldn't do all the rides, but we saw Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios. It was AWESOME, but my feet were SO SORE by the end of the day. In the pictures you see Peggy and me in blue wetsuits. Peggy had volunteered us to be in a show without knowing that that was what she was doing. We had to reinact Pearl Harbor while they dumped tons of water on us. If you want to know the whole story you gotta call me. That night, we stayed for the Fantasmic show. That has got to be the coolest show I've ever seen. I recommend that to everyone!!!!
So I never had been to Walt Disney World (or Disneyland either for that matter), or Sea World, or swim with a dolphin, so it was all so new and so much fun for me. Now I'm home, and I'm playing laundry and housekeeping catch up and doing books for our business from the last week. I hate coming home from vacation. Why does it have to end??? :)
Here's some pics from my adventure:
