Beach bar

Friday, April 11, 2014

Inlet Harbor Restaurant

Dance, dance.

Inlet Harbor Marina Restarant in Daytona

Found this hidden beach bar w a southern living google for the Daytona area. Fun beach bar atmosphere, big band and dancing. Outdoors can get very crowded and no organized seating, no hostess, scoop a table at your own risk.

Daytona Pier

My dear hubby of 19 years.

Daytona Boardwalk

After a day of swim and fun, stopped in for ice cream and taffy.

Daytona Beach Friday

Ft. Wilderness Losge

After am canoe, took shuttle to the Lodge. This Disney resort is awesome, a replica of the Old Faithful Inn (complete w faux geyser) but having been to the OFI on a previous rv tour, I can tell you this one wins, hands down. Beautifully done. Newer. Great.

Great morning activity

Thurs.

Ft wilderness canoes

Canoes and kayaks

Thurs. April 20, 2014 canoe and kayak tour around the campground. About 45 mins to make the loop.

Downtown at Universal

Like Disney downtown, but smaller or maybe just more condensed. Shops and restaurants.

Snack break

April 9, 2014 Universal.

The Lorax

Universal - Seuss Landing.

Jurassic Park

LOVE the playground maze at Jurassic Park. Good for big kids too. Lots to explore and no line!!

Hulk

My girls riding the big roller coasters!

Harry Potter World first

Wed., April 9, 2014 went straight to Harry Potter world and the castle ride. Upon immediate entrance the wait was 45 mins. Totally worth it. What a wild ride w 3D effects, too. Don't miss the Butter Beer. We liked frozen best. Yum! Did not try the chocolate frogs.

Universal Island of Adventure

Drove the rv over to universal 6 am. They do have rv parking for $22. Cheaper than a one way cab. Opens at 9 am. We were in q at 8 am which was about right.

Chip and Dale

Abigail dancing with Chip and Dale.

Smores!

Campfire and a movie!

Ok so there are lots of favorites for Disney week, but this simple outing tops!! Every night campfire and singalong at 7:30 pm outdoor movie at 8:40 pm. Best family times snuggled together on a blankets under the stars.

Tuesday Spring Break 2014

Grand Floridian.

The Grand Floridian

Tuesday, April 8. Got to sleep in! No theme parks today. Just an old fashioned boat ride over to neighbor property the Grand Floridian. Compliments of the Disney shuttle system. Fun to explore. Lunch.

Mom has new eyes!

Literally. Recent prk eye surgery. I can see perfectly!

Potato Heads at Disney's Boardwalk

We always stop in here to make some new faces!

Rainforest Cafe - Happiest Dinner

An evening trip to Disney Boardwalk always makes the agenda. First nite here its off to the Rainforest Cafe. My tip here, go early to beat the long lines. Can make a res well ahead too

More camp pics. Does Disney truck in the wildlife to stage a better experience? One wouldn't put it past Walt.

Spring Break 2014

Ft. Wilderness Camp the most magical campground around. Always warm, clean, lively, fun.

We like the 1400 loop near the meadow swim pool and outdoor movie arena. So easy for the kids to navigate. Now all grown up at ages 16, 13, 11. Been coming here for years, and myself as a kid.
