A little trip to Florida

So each year we get a buy 1, get 2 free flights on USAirways, so we tried to figure out somewhere to go before I am too far along in my pregnancy to fly and somewhere we could enjoy outside too, so why not Florida? Neither of us have ever been, so we ventured to Orlando for Disney World and the gulf coast for their warm, clear water... Clearwater beach in fact. It was a fairly quick trip (5 days), but a perfect little getaway. We stayed a few nights at a 2bd/2ba suite that was super nice and enjoyed having a kitchen to bake some cookies and laundry room to do laundry. It was nice to spoil ourselves and it was very affordable... I highly recommend it $99/night at Holiday Inn Suites Orange Lake (Orlando).

Here are a few pics of our trip....

Kyson loved seeing Mickey Mouse and all the Disney characters for the first time, and we all enjoyed the family rides (about 20 + we made it on), the fireworks, electric light parade, and plays etc. It really is a place that adults can be kids again (cheesy, but true). My favorite rides were the jungle tour and Pirates of the Carribean. Kyson and Ken loved the Peter Pan ride (flying over a city).

Clearwater beach was great... Kyson and Kenley both love the beach and water... Kyson was getting a little too brave at times with getting a little too far out, but we managed somehow.

Florida in general was prettier and more enjoyable than I even thought it would be, and a trip we will certainly make again someday.
