A Vacation for ME!

A good friend pointed out that I hadn't entered a post about my vacation. I hadn't because I didn't take any pictures even though my camera was in my purse the whole time! What, a vacation and no pictures? Yep. You got it. Pete had a business trip to Orlando and I was lucky enough to go too. At first a friend of ours was willing to watch the kids but Nona and Papa came early and were kind enough to stay and watch the kids instead.

Pete and I had a normal morning getting the kids off to school and then headed out the door for the airport. I started relaxing even then. The flight was good, our layover was in New Mexico and I have to say I was impressed with Southwest. Anyway, I took Pete to his conference and then drove around a bit. I like to see places and explore the area. When I got tired I went back to the hotel and took a nap. In the middle of the day. It was blissful. The rest of the day I read a book I had brought. That's it. I didn't do anything else. After I picked Pete up, we went out to dinner at this place called Bahama Breeze. I had the coconut shrimp. They were yummy! The next morning I had breakfast with Pete then took him to work, drove around, read my book and napped some more. Pete got done early so I went and got him. We went to Downtown Disney and walked around for a little. Then we went and looked at all of the large Disney Resort Hotels. They are beautiful! My favorites were the Fort Wilderness,and the Animal Kingdom.

So that's my trip. Pete thought I was crazy. I had a wonderful time.

Hey Julie, alone in a hotel, that sounds like all the bliss a person needs before the holiday rush! I'm glad it was relaxing- and pleasureable!
