First of all I have to say this was such a great trip because my DW works so hard and we only get to Orlando once a year and she had a blast as well as I did.
Hope I can remeber all we did since we tried to do as much as we could
Day 1
We headed for our local airport at 6:00 am upon Dw's request even though our plane didn't leave until 9:49 am and I guess it was a good thing cause after poping the trunk I locked the doors and looked inside and low and behold my keys were laying in the seat
So called AAA and finally after standing around and waiting for an hour they show up and get the door unlocked and then we headed inside and checked in our luggage and headed thru security .
once thru the security check point Dw started telling me how hungry she was so there was a little resturant and bar just as you headed down the terminal and stopped in and had a bite to eat and told Dw
Your not going to be like the kids on this trip complaining all the time are you
and she said if you keep being a smart you know what I will
After flying to cincy and then to MCO we met up with the tow car service and were finally at the RPR at 2:00 pm and was told we could either wait on a smoking room or they had a nonsmoking room ready right then and we opted for nonsmoking big mistake due to the fact we were on the 7th floor all the way on the other side of the elevators but wasn't going to let that bother us.
After putting our bags in the room we decied to head to Universal and pick up our tickets from electronic pick up and wait until the following day to pick up my free superbowl ticket.
After we picked up the tickets we went to citywalk checked out some of the shops and caught a movie at the theater.
I have worked at movie theater but this one really impressed me cause they had a full bar you could buy drinks and take them into the movie with you which I admitt is not kid friendly but no kids with us this time we decied we might do that at a later point ( having a drink that is and plus it was way too early to start drinking ) we watched the new termanator movie since niether of us had seen it and have to admitt it was not worth the money but oh well not letting a bad movie ruin our day.
After the movie we decided to have an early dinner at Nascar Grille
We had the nachos with grilled chicken for starters and there was so muck we had to ask for a to go box so we could finish them up later.
DW had steak and shrimp combo and I tried the luckydog and that shows you who gets the better meal
After dinner it was getting late so we decied to head back to RPR and rest up for our first day in the parks.
Once back at the RPR DW asked me to get out something for her in her bag and as I open the bag I notice the clothes wasn't her and looked at the tagg and it was someone elses bag and I remebered the driver from the car service was in such a hurry that I kept asing him did you get the right bags and he said oh yes it has her name on it so I called the car service and they basically told me to call the airport and see if they had her bag and see if they would deliver it to us and if they wouldn't then they would have to charge us another $110.00 round trip to go get it and ofcourse they wouldn't so we head down to the front of RPR and ask valet for a taxi and in the mean time the girl at the valet window asked what wa going on and we explained everything and not to mention the wifes bag had her medication and mine in it and she told me to hang on she would see if the manager could do anything about her bag for us.
we were told to go inside and talk to the manager and once inside we talked to him and explained everything and he told us if we could wait until midnight he would go to the airport his self and pick up the bag for us and we told him that would be fine and how much we apperciated this.
At 1:30 am we get a call and the manager had returned the other bag and got DW's and was sending a poter up with the bag but he did have to charge me $3.50 for toll charges but I told him that was fine he save me over a $100 anyway and that just shows you why we love the RPR cause he went out of his way to do this for us and not to mention he was pulling a double shift at the RPR.
Hope I can remeber all we did since we tried to do as much as we could

so we headed to MIB and rode it and by the way DW kick my butt on 
The first day would piss me off.
DW wife wanted to buy the pic since we never got the future ones and of course the offered the ride video and she wanted that too and where offering a deal with a 5x7 and video for $24.95 and got it for her cause she is worth it.
