"Double Dip Delight" 09.27.2008 - Chapter 4!

[nenner1]

Welcome Ron! Hope you are a Bucs Fan too....my DH can't wait to meet up with someone on Sunday who plans on watching the game...

Are you kidding me? He is like, their biggest fan!
The two of them will be like brothers from another mother!

All the poor sick kiddos! So far mine have escaped. I thought FOR SURE the way our luck has been somebody here would get sick, but nope.

Percentage wise packing is at 50%. We have serious problems. (Too much stuff) I literally have a duffel bag of shoes we have to carry on. Ay.
Erica, twiddle your thumbs for me tomorrow, I'll be too busy sitting on suitcases...

Kyle is too close for comfort! Good thing we are going south as he is going north. We will probably have rough seas Saturday night and a high surf Sunday at CC. I've really had enough of this season. We're almost there!

I think I am officially in panic mode. I do this every year. I convince myself that there is not nearly enough time to do everything, and then at 8pm the night before we leave I sit and twiddle my thumbs because I have nothing to do.

Thought I was the only one trying to pass the time...thank goodness for the Survivor season premiere.

Lil ol' me! Welp we made it .... with a few bumps. no bruises, but in one piece.

Short version as Im watching Greys ...

430am came WAY TO FAST, we were checked in and on the flight by 720am we had the middle and aisle seats... the window peeps didnt show up... WHICH means we had the whole row to our selves. WOOHOO 5hour flight we got some homework done, reading and sleeping done!

Our connection is where things started to go downhill... slowly. We THOUGHT we were on another flight so we lug all our carry on crap off it, hit the restrooms and the boys to go get some Burger King. Our flight started boarding early and Im calling E like mad to get back.. I EVEN told him to just leave the food.. ME leave food? LOL. So they run back and we jump back on the flight.

An hr later we are in Orlando! WOOHOO Go to baggage claim (which by the way this airport is very nice!) and collect our 3 of 4 bags... YUP they lost our other bag (thankfully it wasnt the f/e & s/m bag LOL) Go and file my claim and am told there is another flight coming in 15mins from Atl. So we wait for it... just in case its on there,., AND WOOHOO what do we see our 4th bag. We all cheer.. please were giving us crazy looks

We then take the Thrifty shuttle and pick up our car. E upgrads us to a Magnum (I think he just wanted to drive it LOL) and head on down to the Cocoa Beach area. We check into the lovely Country Inn & Suites and E again splurges and upgrades to a suite.... I thihk he has ulterior motivies lol.

Got some McD's and taco Smell. Headed back to the INN and catching up on my Greys. (so much for the short verson huh)

Tmrw we hit the Kennedy Space center, maybe a walk oh the beach and some mini golf if time. Oh and the boys want to hit the pool... told them that one might get nixed since we will be hitting the pool all week come Saturday.

Check in with yall Tmrw! Oh and we have no plans for Grand K... looking to do one of the sub things for the boys.. any ideas?

hope everyone is doing well, feeling better and safe travels!

*** Oh and just did a glance of the pics from the 3day'er before us... hmm maybe its better we werent the 1st on it out of dry dock!.

 

[Magic3forme]

We are in Orlando too.
Our flight was on time, no glitches.

tomorrow we are just hanging out until the Mnsshp party.

Happy Journeys to all.

 

[MagicMe]

Orlando weather looks good for tomorrow nite MNSSHP.

I am going the 4th when we get back.

Hopefully the weather will cooperate. Currently the extended looks good. But this is Florida

Hope the weather holds for tomorrow nite. Amy said the weather was very nice today!

Just a quick hello from the Contemporary.

No disasters yet, and we've been here over 24 hours. Alex is doing well, no fever since Tuesday AM, and I think he was already starting to kick his very rare and extremely resistant to antibiotics infection before he started taking the antibiotics.

We're leaving from here around 9:00 AM on Saturday. Looking forward to seeing everyone then.

Julie

Julie, so glad you made it okay. We'll be at the CR tomorrow nite (after the MNSSHP) and also plan to leave bright and early.

I think I am officially in panic mode. I do this every year. I convince myself that there is not nearly enough time to do everything, and then at 8pm the night before we leave I sit and twiddle my thumbs because I have nothing to do.

Okay - it's after 8 - are you done yet????

I can't believe it's here - checked in and got my boarding passes earlier today and found out that I booked my tickets early enough to qualify for the second bag as FREE!!!! I know it's only $10 savings but there's my first DOTD!!!

 

[ntheory]

Last check in before we leave. Leaving bright and early in the morning. I will try to check in at the hotel tomorrow night.

I know I won't sleep at all tonight .... I'm too excited to sleep!!

Airtran? if so it said online that the 2nd bag was free if you flew before May... or at least thats how i read it to be????

**Boys still arent asleep... 1130pm fl time (so only830pm cali time) kind of wasting this 2room suite that E upgraded
