Florida Trip: Part One

We started our journey on Friday afternoon and began driving down to Cincinnati where we would spend the weekend.  We left after the Super Bowl (What a Great Start to the trip with a Packer win!!) and drove all night to Orlando.  I had mapped out the journey and had a "prize" (or as Erin began referring to them "surprises") every 50 miles or so.  I had hopes that it would keep her entertained for the 13 hour drive.  It seemed to work out well and she slept most of the trip anyway.
Here she is opening one of her prizes (pretzels and cheese dip)

Whoever was driving was lucky enough to wear the chauffuers hat

When we arrived, the weather was gorgeous!  Close to 80 and a little overcast.  Erin wanted to go swimming. So off they went to enjoy the sunshine!

Residence Inn was a fantastic place to stay! We were quite happy with it.  The room had a full kitchen and they had social nights Monday - Wednesday with free food and beverages.  The pool was heated and free beer and wine and free Continental breakfast every morning.  Our food was pretty much taken care of the whole trip.  It worked out nicely!
