Wow. All the stress before hand-Are we going? Where will we go? Where will the ship depart from? What about CC?
We decided that no matter what we were going to be on that ship and spend 7 days at sea if necessary!
Stars-Me, DBF(Disney best friend) Diane, (both mature women) and my DMom age 79.
We flew into MCO arriving at 9:05AM. Great flight on Song. Rented a minivan from Budget-smooth easy process. Drove to DTD and called local friends. We all lunched at Olivia's. (pool slide construction has started) Sad that we were not staying there but thrilled to be going on the Magic.
Then 4 of us went to explore the new SSR resort. As we left the car we were walking past the DVC Preview Center and I spotted someone. I said "That's our DVC guide Susie." The others said no it's not. As she turned I called out "Susie" and she replied "Nancy!"
She invited the 4 of us for ice cream and we obliged. We only got to speak for a moment but she is a doll.
(I had made contingency reservations near the airport but cancelled them afeter calling the Radisson to check that they were ineed open and functioning.
We drove to the coast and checked in at the Radisson. Lots of visible storm damage in the area as well as viewed from the air.
The Radisson was lovely. Neat, clean and had lots of FEMA folks there.
We ate at Grills that night. Loved the seafood and the view.
We all went to bed by 8:30 because we had been up since 3:00 AM!

Watch for my next installment!::yes::
