Naples

December 2, 2024

After spending the last several years in the mountains for Thanksgiving, this year we left the cold behind and headed down to the beach instead! We left Tuesday afternoon…

and made it down there that night. We were glad to see GJ and glad to hit up the beach Wednesday!

This nice brother swam out to the sand bar with her when I wouldn’t!

We tried a new place for dinner that night and I won’t go back, but they did have this balloon arch so…there’s that!

The real question though…would turkey and dressing still taste as good at the beach?! Find out tomorrow!

Would love to hear from you! 3 Comments

Disney

October 28, 2024

After two fun filled days at Universal we had to get in a little Disney time too! We stayed at the Contemporary this time which turned out to be fantastic. Even more fantastic? We had a VIP guide both days! We weren’t exactly planning to have one for two days, but there were cancellations because of the hurricane and they had one available, and…why not?! Joey picked us up from the hotel on Sunday and took us through the back entrance into Hollywood Studios!

We of course rode Tower of Terror and Rock N Roller Coaster right away and then proceeded to ride everything in the park as much as we wanted! There was plenty of Star Wars…

The rest of us stuck around the park for dinner at Sci-Fi…

Also, this is what happens when you ask Maxwell and Spencer to take a picture! ha!

We then watched Fantastic which none of us had ever seen before and was really neat!

We headed back to the hotel tired and happy after the best day in the happiest place on earth!

See you tomorrow!

More Universal

October 24, 2024

Day 2 at Universal we picked up another passenger!

Robert flew in Friday night and joined us for the very best day at Universal. We had a VIP guide and got to literally walk onto all of the rides as many times as we wanted! So, so fun! We rode them all and rode them again. We had lunch in Simpson’s land and went to gate 9 3/4 to ride the train to Hogwarts and got more butter beer. Can’t beat it!

See that giant coaster in the back? We rode that! Plus Hagrid’s and Velcicoaster and Hulk! Yes, I got Samantha on Hulk. She might have had some tins of mints in her shoes and she might have set off the metal detector you have to go through to make sure you aren’t taking your phone on the ride, but we didn’t get caught and she made it on!

A fantastic, full day!
