Florida 2010

My forever friend Jodi and I embarked on our 2nd annual "Sister Chick" adventure in April. Last year we spent a long weekend in Chicago so this year we headed for some fun in the sun down in Florida. Jodi's parents were kind enough to put us up in their time share in Orlando so we spent 4 days exploring the area. We both flew down and actually were able to meet up in Milwaukee before flying into Orlando. Then we rented a very fun, light blue VW Bug and cruised into Orlando. We both wanted to go to the beach so we drove over to Daytona for the day and wandered around. It was pretty overcast so our dreams of lounging in the sun weren't realized, but it was fun to park on the sand and people watch!


We both put in some volunteer time and earned free passes to Disney so we chose to go to Epcot for a day. I've never been there and really enjoyed visiting the different "countries". It brought back fond memories of living overseas - especially the fish and chips complete with malt vinegar! The funniest thing was being greeted by Princess Aurora as "her Majesty". You know you're getting old when the princess calls you that :- )


We ended our week with a day at the pool and then an evening at Cirque de Soleil which was an amazing show. It's always fun to spend time with my dear friend and the days flew by. Wonder what adventure we'll take next year?
