Vacation

Well vacation has finally begun. Started out kind of iffy... Our nonstop flight turned into a stop in Raleigh NC. We had to refuel. Apparently the long runway at Bradley was being redone and we had to dump some fuel in order to take off with the weight capacity on the short runway. So this meant we needed to stop for gas. We arrived in Orlando about 45 minutes late. We walked passed the long line at Budget rental and we were very happy we are FastBreak members so we could just get our car right away. It is raining but not hard.
The Animal Kingdom Lodge is fantastic. Of course we arrived in the dark so I can't be totally sure of my view but the night view is great. Everyone was extremely friendly here. At checkin we received two buttons... Happy Anniversary and Happily Ever After. The girl who checked us in was awesome and gave us a map of the new area. We can't wait to venture out tomorrow. Our view is in the zebra section and it is so nice at night with all the sounds outside. We went to the store and overpaid for the convenience of breakfast food and we got our mugs so we can get free soda and coffee during our stay. We are both exhausted and have unpacked. Our room has a flat screen TV and DVD player. I am finishing my movie since the battery on my portable DVD player died before we arrived.
Hopefully the weather will start to improve. We will get ponchos tomorrow and make the best of it.
Until then....
