An Unhappy Ending to a Happy Vacation

I apologize for being a little bit off on my posting=), but know I am back from being so busy. This past week we went to Orlando, Florida on a 7 day trip. We left on Saturday at 6:00 in the morning and began the 11 hour drive. I watched movies and TV shows on the way down and only got a short nap in the middle. We stayed at the Holiday Inn and watched some television and went to sleep. On Sunday we woke up at 7;( to go to Universal Studios. Here is a list of things we rode there: Mummy, Disaster, Jaws, Twister, Shrek, and NickToon Studios. It was a great park because there were no lines at the beginning of the day! That day I realized I don't like Floridian food. We ate at Fennegans that day and it was nasty! I forgot where we ate dinner that night. Monday, we again were the first ones there at Islands of Adventure. We rode: Spider-Man(4 times), Dudley Do-Rights Ripsaw Falls, Flying Unicorn, Popeye and Bluto's Rat Barges, Jurassic Park, and the HULK!!!!!!!!


That night, we went and saw the Blue Man Group. That was the most amazing show I have ever seen on a stage. I was laughing extremely hard and I will never forget it. Sunday, we stayed at the Calypso Cay, a condo in Orlando, and ventured to Disney Land's Animal Kingdom. I had a high fever and wasn't feeling wonderful. It was cool because we rode on the Safari and saw tons of animals from Africa. There were two trails that you could go off and see more animals from Asia and Africa. We rode the Dinosaur, and that was cool and scary at the same time. I got to pet some goats and see some Tamarins at Rafiki's Planet Watch. We saw the show It's Tough to Be A Bug with Flick the ant. Proceeding Animmal Kingdom at 2:00, I swam in the Condo pool and my Dad cooked out Steak at the Condo grill. Wednesday we left for Daytona Beach. That was the worst hotel in the world. The first thing you see is about a hundred college kids who don't care what they look like or do. We signed in and they gave us the wrong room number because there weren't enough beds and the hall smelled like vomit. We then packed up our stuff and went to the fourth floor on one of their two working elevators. That hall smelled like smoke. The room still wasn't what we asked, but my mom didn't care. The pool was filled to the brim with kids from up north so we went to the beach. Their sand is rock hard and there is no slope to stop the water. From far away, it almost seems like a desert. The water was cold and powerful, knocking me off my feet every time, and all I heard there was screaming and blaring music.

Because of all the negativeness about the place, we left. It was an unhappy ending to a wonderful vacation.

(for all of you who want pictures, that will come in another post later today.)
