we decided to travel down to gatwick the day before depature,mainly to avoid the m25 in a rush lol
we left hinckley at 3.30pm and due to a delay on the m25(accident) we arrived at the gatwick hilton at 6.30 ish. check-in here was vey quick and the rooms were clean and tidy.
we decided to go straight over to twilight check-in and we went straght up to the desk,i was very amused at the huge lines next day;) then came our 1st mistake of the holiday......i had forgotton to take eveyones advice and eat in the airport so we ate at the hilton £8.50 FOR ONE GLASS OF WINE!! and a cheap chardonnay at that :rolleyes: dh nearly died of shock
we had a delay on our depature time at gatwick wed morning from 11.15am till 1pm:( but after that the flight was uneventful) we arrived at mco and cleared customs quick enough picked up the car and then promptly got lost:o :o never mind we found the hotal soon enough
comfort inn lake buena vista
again clean and tidy some decorating going on but we only slept and ate brekkie here so no problems

Guess I won't be buying a round of drinks at the Hilton then!!! Blimey, talk about being priced for expense accounts!

Nice to hear you're back. Interested to know how long it took to clear the airport from landing to car hire? Can't wait to read more,
