Florida vacation

If you want to lift your spirits, there is nothing like a week in the sun! On Tuesday my girlfriends, Joan and Lisa, and I returned from a week’s vacation in sunny Orlando, Florida. Even though the weather down south has been on the the chilly side, we landed in the warmest weekend they have had in months. We rented a car and stayed in a beautiful town house (it’s the blue one). The Impala drove like a dream and was great on gas. We were very grateful that I took my Garmin along to get us around!
The town house had 3 bedrooms, three baths, and a living room and kitchen. We did have to go out and buy supplies since paper products were not furnished.

Friday evening we went to a mystery dinner theater. We sat a table with 3 couples and enjoyed a lovely meal and a hilarious comedy who-dun-it. I don’t know what kind of birds these are. I’ve never seen anything like it before. They were in the parking lot at the theater. If you know..please tell me.
 
 

The first thing that we noticed in Florida were all the palm trees.
and the beautiful flowers and greenery at Sea World. We spent most of the day there on Saturday.
Sea World was a fantastic place to visit. We saw the whale show, the sea lion and otter show and the dolphin show with acrobats, high divers and exotic birds.

You could rent flamingo paddle boats.
 
There was also a scenic lake with waltzing waters.


ON Sunday we drove to the Tampa/clearwater area to ride on a luncheon/sightseeing tour on the Calypso Queen.





The scenery was beautiful and the day was gorgeous.

I think we liked walking at the beach most of all!

 

It was a fantastic vacation in every way. I recommend it to everyone.
