Show and Tell Saturdays- Favorite Vacation

A few years ago, when I worked in cardiology in Springfield, one of the doctors I worked for, who was a wonderful doctor to work with, allowed us to use his vacation home in Orlando. It was a nice, little house in a quiet neighborhood, with a little lake behind the house and a walkway going down to it. My favorite part about the house was the sunporch, because we could sit out there in the mornings and just relax and watch the water. We spent most of our time at the beach near Cape Canaveral,but we also spent one day at Disneyworld

(I think he might have had too much sun at this point. LOL)

and 2 days at Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure. We absolutely loved the Universal parks; they were awesome! The E.T. ride was my favorite, because they put us on bicycles, and we got to ride through the parts of the movie. It was just such a fun, relaxing time. We had some great Italian food at a little family-owned restaurant in Orlando, and we fell in love with Checkers and Firehouse Subs, but we also were able to cook a lot. A plus for Jacob was that we got to watch Narnia for the first time on the big screen tv; he is in love with Narnia. The beach was so relaxing and warm and beautiful, though; we swam, played on the boogieboard, hunted for shells, and just had fun! I'd have to say that has been our best vacation yet.
