A long drive

I think it’s about time I talked about our vacation. We had been talking for awhile about visiting Florida and some of the theme parks, but we weren’t really sure. Then my Dad was talking about his trip to Florida in May so we thought we would head down at the same time for a visit and hit some parks while we were at it. Unfortunately, Monica’s school schedule didn’t cooperate so we had to scrap those plans, but by then we had Disney fever so we made plans to drive down earlier and spend a week in Orlando.

We began by waking up very early on Saturday morning. We had gotten most everything ready the night before, but nothing was in the car yet so I had to take everything out there in the morning. Our plan was to only stop for the bathroom so we filled our cooler with all sorts of goodies for the drive down. It’s about a twelve hour drive, and the iPod was filled with all sorts of music and podcasts to keep us occupied and awake. And because it’s a must for any trip down I-95, we did stop at South of the Border.

The drive down went remarkably quick, and we arrived in enough time to relax for a bit and pick up some bottled water in preparation for the hot days ahead.

Eventually

Okay, so when I said tomorrow, I didn’t exactly mean the next day. I guess I should have said “eventually”.

Things have been pretty busy here lately as I am obsessed with landscaping our backyard and Monica is trying to get back in study mode. My plan is to post a recap of our trip this coming weekend so check back then and hopefully there will be something for you to read.
