Back to the World! (This Time Without a Broken Leg)

So our travel day was uneventful. Weather was nice, traffic was mild, I only had to take 2 work calls in the car, so a success!

Got to Orlando and checked out the Character Warehouse on Vineland. Nothing inspirational and we left without picking anything up.

Arrived at CBR around 4. Got our room, unloaded the car and headed to DS. We have a beautiful view outside our door.

Stopped in to guest relations and got our passes activated with no problems and made it to our ADR at Boathouse right on time. No wait and we were seated at a great table outside.


I didnā€™t know that Boathouse was owned by the Gibsonā€™s organization from Chicago, but I canā€™t pass on a Gibsonā€™s ribeye, so I had steak at a seafood place! :laughing:

Dinner was nice, our server was great and we finished our night with some ice cream.

Back to the hotel and in bed for an early day at DHS tomorrow.

Except now I am wide awake at 3 AM, oh well.

Looking forward to tomorrow!

Iā€™m reading this two hours later but for some reason I am wide awake at 1:30am! :joy: I havenā€™t had trouble sleeping in forever, not sure whatā€™s up. Thanks for sharing your trip to give me something to read late at night! :rofl:

Glad traffic wasnā€™t bad. We drove to Atlanta yesterday and traffic was rough.

Thatā€™s a great start to the tripā€”Boathouse and Salt and Straw.
