Fortunately, we were the first group to disembark and for the first time in 7 days, felt our feet on dry ground. We took the free shuttle to the car rental at the airport and by 10 am, were heading north on I 95 to meet up with Bob and Francine in Orlando.
Our timeshare is outside of Orlando (Summer Bay Resort) and is perfect for a nice relaxing time away from the large populated areas. We have a pond with all the appropriate birds and water fowl, as well as a pool. It still takes me awhile to realize that it is less than three weeks to Christmas, but the lovely Christmas decorations bring me back to reality.
On Tuesday Eric and Bob went golfing and Francine and I sat out by the pool. When the boys returned from golfing about 3 pm, we went over to the larger pool for "Happy Hour". The boys wanted to swim, after a hot round of golf. When we got to the pool there was caution tape around the pool. They had a "hazardous object" alert! There was a small turd on the bottom of the pool. Apparently, they had to close the pool and wait for a special team to arrive to remove the "foreign object". Then they had to drain the pool and they expected the pool to be closed for 24 hours!! We had a good laugh when we took a peek at the foreign object. It was about the size of a Timbit and probaly rolled out of a baby's bathing suit.
Yesterday we travelled East to the Kennedy Space Center and had a wonderful day! We did the full tour and even went in the Space Shuttle simulator.
As I am writing this, we are watching a Great Egret sitting on the raiing of our balcony.
We are off to Lakeland today to visit our friends Bruce and Jane Walker. Bruce is taking Eric and Bob golfing and Francine and I will spend the day with Jane.
