Scanlonsgirl Dream Holiday!! THE DRIVE DOWN.

The plan was to go to sleep around 4pm on the 25th in order to get up and be on the road at midnight! RIGHT! We both got into bed and just kinda layed there, and then started laughing! My husband said this is not possible, I'm going to play on the playstaion while you rest. So I tried to get some sleep but all I kept doing was run all the packing list, driving route, reservation plans over and over through my mind. So I gave up on that idea and started making some sandwiches for the drive down. At 11:15 we head over to the airport to pick up our rental, and behold I forgot the coupon for the double car upgrade!:weird: Being it was midnight and I was very upset the very nice young lady gave the upgrade to us!!:laugh We got a 2003 Camry for 19.57 a day!!! Unbelieveable the girls at the desk said she has never heard of a rate like that..

So after droping our car and packing it up we were off at about 12:30! RAIN RAIN RAIN!! On the way down my husband and I had a great time singing and listening to the cds we made together on the computer and drinking Mountain Dew! I tell you this cause I have never drink a can of MD before this trip and I had 4! plus some choc chip cookies! LOL :weird: :p :o

B]Something fun to past the time is the Book of Questions! We got the love one and the normal one ! much fun.[/b]

At about 5pm on the 26th we pulled into the Swan and we were so out of it we went to our room and called room service and then hit the sheets!

DAY TWO

After sleeping the night and most of the next morning we got up at 10am took our showers enjoyed the balcony and the wonderful view. Then called the bellmen and had our stuff moved over to the Dolphin! We got both of these room for 100.00 and 95.00 per night off Priceline! At check in she asked if we had a problem with a little walk from the elevators and I said no, she said that she was glad cause she had a great view for us.
Our room was at the very end and it wraped around the building we had four big windows in it! After seeing our room and putting our shorts on it was upper 80! We heading over the to Outet Mall and shopped then went and saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding! FUN FUN FUN. Then heading back to the hotel we wanted to get up and get going the next day for we checked into the Polynesian!!!

Up Next: HOW CAN WE EVER COME BACK AND NOT STAY HERE??

Laying in bed at 4 o'clock for a midnight launch? LOL!!!

Oh man, I'm feeling that like it was yesterday. My launch time will also be Midnight out of South Carolina.

I'm a huge Erich Kunzel fan (Cincinatti Pops) His Disney Spectacular was well done. I would like to see him in concert.
