Cool Vacation

Outside Hogsmeade

Our Florida vacation was wet.  We discovered:
1.  Ponchos ARE necessary during tropical depressions
2.  Amusement Parks deserted during rain storms
3.  Walking around with squishy sandals for hours sucks
4.  70% humidity means that my hair looks like a bob
5.  Swimming until the hotel kicks you out at 10 is awesome
6.  You never fully dry out when it rains constantly

As you can see from this list much of our vacation revolved around water.  Don't get me wrong, the vacation was fun.  Seeing the Dellers was great.  Getting to run on rides over and over again was a lot of fun.  We were really blessed not to have it be incredibly hot every day and have to deal with sunburns.  Instead we were dealing with rotating shoes so feet didn't get moldy. 

Things we wouldn't have missed:
1.  Hogsmeade was fabulous!
2.  Butterbeer was interesting not great
3.  I still can't do rides (tried the HP - no good)
4.  Jim loves Universals turkey legs
5.  Warm rain is no damper for us (Oregon stock :-)
6.  We need to see family more

Thanks Florida.  We may not be back soon - it took me 40 years - but we had fun!

  1. Nice of them to make an Oregonian feel at home! Actually, not having to wait for rides is way worth it! Yes, we need to see each other wayyyyyy more!
