The Weather Is Better Here

Has it been a week already since we stayed at the Crown Plaza on the ocean?

Well, the weather almost everywhere seems to be ugly, except for here! Our thoughts go out to everyone, especially our friends and family back in Illinois. Ironically, it is supposed to be hurricane season here and everyone is supposed to be worried about us!

Anyway, what better time to share some shots taken from the hotel we stayed last Saturday after two fun-filled days in Kissimmee as we celebrated our 10th anniversary.

Our cabana was in the row closest to the ocean, at the right. It was a glorious day. We got lots of sun after lunch on the deck.

We had this wonderful wrap-around balcony outside of our room. Here is the view looking south at the beautiful beach. It looks like a postcard!

Our room wasn't too shabby, either. As a Priority Club platinum members, we snagged a nice upgrade. All in all, it was a good excuse to hang out at the beach in style!

I've got to say that we enjoyed great rooms at two hotels. We spent the actual anniversary Thursday night and, then, Friday night at the Comfort Suites Maingate East in Kissimmee. We have actually spent the last four or five anniversaries there, dating back to the days when we would fly in to Florida each August from Illinois to enjoy the family timeshare. Now, the manager automatically upgrades us to a great suite complete with a living room with Barcalounger and a flat-screen TV.

Yes, I know: I am a hopeless romantic...

More later,


Mark
