Well today was moving day. Got to sleep in. What a wonderful idea.
Well didn't sleep in to much longer then usual. After we got up we had missed the continental breakfast down stairs. Oh we'll have to go one last time to the restaurant we had been going to all week. No hardship there. Only missed one night there. It was too busy one night because they had all you can eat fish. So had to find something else to eat.
So after done our breaky went back up stairs and packed up our stuff. Putting clothes back into a bag in a hurry. Well I didn't have too much to have to put back in. Just grab swim suit , which is still a little damp after being in with dolphins. Will have to pull it out when we get to other place. Then my toiletries are to be packed up. Just have to figure out how to get my warm vest in there. It was on me when we came here. Haven't had to wear it since. Good show there.
So now time to bug out of this place. Drag our luggage down and then settle up the bill. Didn't cost me a dang thing to stay here. I have a few gift certificates to pay for the place from air miles. Just love air miles will explain in a few minutes here. When bill is settled we wait out side for taxi. Yeah on the road again.
We are now heading over to the Kissimmee area. The driver is not sure where he is going so has to make some calls. Finally into the drive and are dropped off. Another 30 dollars on taxi ride. Well is better then having to try to drive around here if you don't know the area.
The place is small on the outside and they charge for just about everything. Great!!! Internet wi fi is 30 dollars for the week. If you want to join in any activities going on around the place there is a fee. They also charge if you want to take the tour of their time share. Then you get the money back after plus a prize for looking at it. Charge, charge, charge. This is not going to be so cheap me thinks.
Finally into room. Up three flights of stairs carrying our luggage. Pooped already. Open the door and the place is a big apartment. Two bedrooms both have a bathroom. One a jacuzzi tub for two. Maybe taking advantage of that later on today. Just to get rid of the sweat from walking today. Will sooth those achy muscles I hope. Oh back to the suite. There is a full kitchen and living room area. Even a washer and dryer to get rid of hot sweaty clothes if need be.
So now after checking out the place we head out on a little stoll. Hopefully to find a way to get from point a to point b. being here to animal kingdom. From there we can catch a shuttle and make it anywhere on Disney property we want to. So now walking. Yeah that's right walking walking walking again over and over again. I sure am getting my exercise here. We walked down one road which took us about 25 minutes. We then came to a light and said okay right or left. We went left first but came to the gate for the animal kingdom lodge. That was just a parking lot and would have had to travel further and the find a shuttle there. So now turned around and went the other way. Walked a little ways and came to e parking lot for animal kingdom. So now can get there tomorrow and see how we can get to the other places the next day.
So now we have to make the long trek back. We found a short cut through a few trees which will make it a little easier on the walk tomorrow.
Back near where we are staying we checked out a couple of other resorts. They have shuttle service but would only be in issue for paying guest. We could pay for their shuttle but then would be paying about the same amount fora taxi. Lets see now. Walking for 20 minutes. Taking a taxi or paying same price for a shuttle from another hotel. If hubby has anything to say about it we will probably be walking. But right now the heat has got to him and he is sleeping soundly. Maybe a taxi home if we have to.
We stopped and picked up a few groceries so we could have some snacks around. Stopped at a couple of booths selling tickets to see if there was any kind of shuttle service from this area. Hmm not can do. I guess still walking.
Oh also found a Harley dealer right down the road. But they didn't have much in the way of the bright coloured t shirts I like. Asked about renting a Harley for a day. Would cost about 75 dollars. Are still thinking on that as well.
So tomorrow what is in line. Animal kingdom. I guess. Will walk over there and check out more animals and watch the rides and maybe take in a few shows. Walking walking walking. over and over. feet are still taking it for now. but the robax and tylenol are at my side. Tonight just a chillen. I mean a chillen the air conditioner is turned up a little far for me. Time for a blanket.
Oh I was going to say why I just love the air miles. You see I used them all up to get tickets to Busch gardens, sea world, universal and Disney five day pass. Also finished off my air miles by getting gift certificates to best western. Then with the time share being paid for by a friend we are not paying much for this trip. The only thing so far that cost anything was food and the trip to discovery cove. Plus a few novelties I have picked up so far. No have not bought anything dolphin yet. Oh I lied I did buy a dolphin necklace and earrings. Couldn't go without buying something dolphin. Suitcase will be full on way home and we are only part way through our vacation. I still am in line to buy some more junk. Oh I mean souvenirs. Got to get it home though. I saw a couple of beautiful statues of dolphins but how would I get home without breaking.
So now walking walking walking tomorrow. Talk again tomorrow. Still enjoying my time here. Do not want to come home to the rain.
