Inluvwithdisney's really belated but great TR

Hi guys, we have been back for almost two weeks and I am just now doing this

I had such a great time but I came back to total chaos!!!!

I really want to share our trip tho soo I will be gettin on it finally!!!!


Cast

ME -- 39
DH -- 41
DD -- 14
DS -- 10 (Turned 11 on the trip)
DD -- 8

Day 1 ~ May 30th

This was the kids last day of school!!! So off they went, and DH off to Work! AND me, yep, I had to work a 1/2 day too !! Morning went quick and before I knew it it was time to pick up my DD from her last day of Middle School!!! She was sobbing!!!!!! A bunch of her friends will go to a different High School, so it was and emotional day for her!! But she perked up when I said its ok," We're Going Home!!!!" Next we picked up the other 2 and back home to get dad and we were off to the airport!!!

This is always such a fun feeling!!! Check in and security were quick so we grabbed a bite to eat and we were off to Tampa!! We landed in Tampa about 10:30 and our car met us and took us to the Clearwater Beach Hilton!!
It was straight to bed once we arrived!! Big beach day tomorrow!!

Day 2 ~ May 31st

Got up and got ready for the beach!!! We Clearwater!!!! We went to breakfast at our favorite little diner near the marina, then hit the beach!!! The water was AWESOME and the day was perfect!!! After a few hours on the beach we went shopping at the cute touristy shops and bought some souveniers!! Then we headed to Captain Memo's Pirate Cruise!!! WE LOVE this cruise it is soooooo fun!! If you go to clearwater you gotta try it!!! For dinner we grabbed a pizza and then went swimming by the light of the moon!!! Like I said a perfect day!!!

Re: Inluvwithdisney's really belated but great TR

Not getting the pictures to work right!! I'll keep working on them!!!


Day 3 ~ June 1st ~ Clearwater Beach and Universal Studios!

Up early again!!! Went back to breakfast at the Marina diner then on a speedboat ride around Clearwater beach!! Saw lots of dolphins!! It was a blast too!!! Then we headed back to the beach for the day!! We went in and cleaned up around 2 for our ride to Orlando!! Our car was 45 min late and the driver awful!!!! Told us how to tip and what channels we could not listen to on the radio because HE was listening to them!!! I was very angry!!! He did not want us to tip on the card he wanted cash!! So because of haow wonderfully he did not treat us I purposely tipped on the card!!! And not well! Then I called his boss!! More on that later!!!
Anyway... we were off to Orlando at about 3:30!! Checked into the Royal Pacific! VERY NICE!! Since we got ther so early we decided to go to Margaritaville for dinner then Universal for the evening!!! I LOVE Jimmy Buffet and loved Margaritaville!! It was a fun place!! WE went on a bunch of the rides!! There was hardly anyone there!! We went on all but about 4 or 5 things!! It was alot of fun!!! Then we headed back to the hotel for bed because tomorrow is Discovery COVE!!!!!

Re: Inluvwithdisney's really belated but great TR

Great start!!

I've always wanted to spend a day or two in Clearwater or Tampa, before we start a Disney trip.

Bummer about the bad driver Hopefully he got his in the end
