It's About Time!
Finally, I have a chance to update this blog. Between family issues, hurricane season and lousy internet at times, I have not been able to get this done. Now at last, I have the time and connection to get this accomplished. So without further ado, here goes...
The last post dealt with the new traveler installed and not much else. Since then, we traveled to Orlando to spend some time with the kids and grandkids, relaxing and traipsing around SeaWorld and Disney's Magic Kingdom. Needless to say, SeaWorld was the favorite. We were able to do and see more and at a more leisurely pace. Abby & Anna got to feed sea lions and manta rays, and Grandpa was the designated rider on the rollercoasters. Go figure: I can handle ocean swells, but can't stand those things! The dolphin and orca shows were great, and we were smart to sit higher in the stands.

Magic Kingdom was fun, but I had hurt my foot the day before and was hobbling along behind the group, but I wouldn't have missed it for the world! My favorite: Pirates of the Caribbean!
Capt. Jack Sparrow was recruiting for his next adventure!
All in all it was a great time with the family and since we are only 2 hours away, we can go back anytime!
Next post will have the story of hauling out for hurricane season and the landlocked adventures we are having.
Till then, fair winds and warm days!
