And so it begins...



A quick 2.5 hour flight followed by a wrestling match with 3rd world car seats at Avis Orlando and some clever navigating by Heather in our Ford Fusion and we've arrived at our Florida rental. If the girls only knew how close we are to Disney, they most certainly would not be asleep right now...

The afternoon of a 3 year old on vacation is a pretty simple thing - jump off the edge of the pool, swim to the steps, climb onto the pool deck, laugh hysterically, repeat... 2 hours later, there was a partial dinner follow by an almost immediate lapse into a coma. A couple of light beers and some Pinot Grigio later and it seems like the grown ups will call it a night before the clock strikes nine...

Sunday is Sea World with Shamu, the penguins and manta rays that will eat fish out of your hand (if you're willing to be as brave as cousin Clare). Nana & Grandpa Bob arrive after dinner, so we'll see who gets the better review at the end of the day (100 feet of fish will likely pale in comparison to showing Grandpa Bob how to jump off the pool steps without getting your face in the water).

Photos and video will be posted daily, so stay tuned. If you hear nothing from us, that means Charlotte has gone "native" and we're deep within the Magic Kingdom trying to extract her from a tea party, Princess ball or parade that she has commandeered.

Lots of love.
