Orlando Update

Orlando Update

Well, we made it here safely just before Christina and Pam. We picked them up at the airport and all checked into our rooms.

Then we met up and Dave, Pat, Dan, Peggy, Christina, Pam, Michelle, Jessica and I had dinner at a place called Pachino's. Personally I think it was a bit overpriced for the portions and the service, but the company made it all worth it.

The only bad part is, I forgot to take the camera! I snapped a few pics with my cell phone camera and will get them up soon.

Then when we walked back to the hotel, Mike and Sherrin were standing in the parking lot waiting for us. Perfect timing!

Mike says he will tandem skydive with me Friday morning so that will be awesome!!!
 
Sounds like it's off to a great start. Hank - when you post pictures - could you include names, as well as their member names so we know who we're looking at. (Unless the picture are compromising;) , oh heck - especially if they're compromising!:D )
 
My Dearest Cort - yes, you are on the list. I have to tell them all about it, you know. If you were coming, we could announce it together.

they have lots and lots of traffic here. I have to shut my eyes when I'm driving.
 
Dang it, we forgot our camera too.

I second what Hank said about service and price, especially since I didn't even get my food on the first go around. Pat even had to send her's back because it wasn't fully cooked. I finally got my food and it was OK but nothing great. Of course, this was our second choice. We all had agreed to go to "Charlies Steakhouse" until our "Tour Guide" warned us about it being a "little" pricey ($34 to $40 PER person--plus drinks). Our Champaign taste was overcome by our Beer Budget and we changed to Pachino's (within walking distance---which was a sell also).

We depart on the great QAS tour and FEED this afternoon. Should be a lot of fun, especially the EATING (do y'all detect a theme here----when does th' DRINKING BEGIN-Bubba???????:confused: :rolleyes: :p ).

May God Bless,

Danny :)

:D Your zingers just crack me up, Ann! :D

This reminds me of a couple of older friends zipping down the road to a doctor's visit. The passenger was surprised when she thought they went through a red light. She watched more closely and she saw for a certainty that they went right through a second red light. Fortunately, there was no other traffic. As they flew through a third red light, she exclaimed to her friend, "Gladys, that's the third red light you drove through," to which Gladys exclaimed, "Oh mercy, am I driving? I thought you were!"
