Florida Trip

In the fall, a coworker of mine mentioned that she was going to spend a week at her time share in Orlando in January. She thought it would be a good pre-baby getaway and invited me to join her. She said I could bring a friend and since my sister Chris' birthday fell during that time, it seemed like a great plan. We spent 3 nights in Florida.

On the afternoon of Friday, January 29 we met in the Orlando airport to start our mini-vacation. After checking in to the condo, we spent some time at one of the area's many outlet malls. That night we had dinner at Margaritaville in Universal's City Walk.On Saturday we visited Blue Springs State Park, the winter home to 350 manatees. After a two-hour boat ride and viewing the manatees, we made our way to another outlet mall. We also went to Downtown Disney for some Ghiradelli ice cream sundaes.

We saved Epcot for Sunday, since there was no rain in the forecast that day. Unfortunately it was a cold and windy 50 degree day. We didn't stay at the park as long as we would have liked because it was just too cold! We spent the rest of the day relaxing at the condo and had a birthday dinner that evening. Happy Birthday to my wonderful sister!!
