Re: Mousemom is home and somewhat settled in to try and start my TR
Ok, here we go!
Day 1
Sunday we leave about 9:45am. We drive to about Gainsville and stop at a rest stop and picnic for lunch. Then we stop at the last turnpike rest stop jst before the I-4 exit and stretch our legs all the way to the Starbucks counter for a cup of coffee. That is a must before we get going again.
We arrive at our resort around 3:00 or so. Check in went quick and easy. We got a 2nd floor room which was nice. Our room was very nice and very big. It had plenty of space for all of us. It was a 3 bedroom with all the fixins. We unpacked the vans and put stuff away. That alone was a chore. After settling in, me and my 2 children went to the really small pool just for a bit while may brother cooked our taco and fajita dinner. We swam for about 40 minutes, then went in for dinner.
After dinner we all drove over to BWV for a nice relaxing stroll on the boardwalk. It was nice and relaxing too. It was a great temperature with a slight breeze. Just perfect. Then we took the boat to BC and walked to Beaches for an ice cream. They have the best ice cream. Everyone like their ice cream. It was just so nice to sit out in the night time and chill out. We started walking back to the boat to take us to BW when we began to hear and see Epcots fireworks. Wow, that was spectacular! We stop on that little bridge and just watched while my son took a few pictures. He is hoping they came out.
My mom was having a hard time keeping up with us( her knees do not do so well because she had a double knee replacement a few years ago and couple that with extra weight and not used to so much walking) which showed up throughout the whole trip. That was something that I did fear would happen. We eventually made it back to our resort in one piece and called it a night.
Day 2 will be about our day in HS. I will post more soon. I am hoping I will have pics soon. Bye!
