Here we go! Eight days in Florida and we didn't walk into a Disney park. A very different trip than normal for us, but it was great!
Who are we?
Me: Barbara, Disney addict now add Universal to that. I am a substitute teaching assistant in our local district. Recent breast cancer survivor and chauffeur to my children's busy sports schedule. I'm a hockey and swim mom which is pretty much a full time job.
DH: Mike, a CPA, also loves Disney and Universal.
DS 13: Matthew is a 13 year old boy with the attitude of a 16 year old girl. He knows everything, we are very embarrassing to him and he loves cars. And hockey. Oh and he recently shot up(grew almost 5 inches in one year!) passed me already!
DS 10: Eric is the baby, although he is probably more mature than his older brother. Eric is a competitive swimmer with Olympic dreams. He loves Disney as much as me and had a hard time with the fact we were staying at Beach Club, but not going into the parks. Oh and roller coasters, loves those too.
When
We flew out from Upstate NY on Thursday August 25 and came home Friday September 2. Well technically we ended up landing after midnight, so Sep 3. Thanks to Hurricane Hermine.
Where
We spent 4 nights at Portofino Bay Hotel onsite at Universal and then 4 nights at Beach Club Villas, but didn't do Disney. Reason will be revealed eventually.
We visited the Universal parks, Seaworld, Discovery Cove, did an air boat swamp tour, Disney Springs, and maybe more...
