O-Town Escapade

Our quick, 52 hour vacation in Orlando was a nice little retreat full of great laughs, great friends and great food (no calorie counting)! Except for the rain, it was a perfect weekend and our fun friends (whom we met in 2003 when we lived in Jacksonville) made every second enjoyable! We discovered a new drink, fell in love with a yellow lab, saw tons of animals (no gators) and experienced the beach in a way we never thought we could. We also even got to play 'fake parents' for quite some time on Sunday with their 18 month old son at Sea World. Brooks is the sweetest, best little boy ever and he became quite attached to Derek. I too made a new best friend while there too, but mine always happen to have four-legs and shed all over me for some reason!

The absolute best part was that we got into Sea World for free! (No, it wasn't done illegally, but we might have stumbled upon two unused passes at the entrance into the park that we might have claimed as our own).

The worst part, however, was the rain. We ended up still going to the beach on Saturday and you can see from the picture, we ended up sitting in our car and enjoying some beverages while staring at the waters from inside!

Thanks again Mel and Kev for letting us stay with you and take over your house, dogs and child for the weekend! We STILL have our theme song playing over and over in our heads!

I also took a video of the cutest penguin ever jumping around at Sea World!
