Where We've Been - First post New Years

Every time we go somewhere we always say that we're going to keep a journal with us. Kevin remembers everything and well, I remember nothing. We're always doing something fun, and I want to remember the things we have done forever. We are so lucky to be able to pick up and do whatever we want, and I want to be able to share our experiences and look back and smile. There is one thing you need to know, we never pay full price for anything. We always use priceline, hotwire, or lastminutetravel for our hotel reservations (only staying at 4 and 5 star hotels). If you ever have any questions, just ask!

Before I start writing, don't expect elaborate, eloquent or flamboyant writing, that's just not me (and truthfully it annoys me). In addition, I might add just some plane old boring stuff about our life too in here that has nothing to do with a weekend trip.

I haven't taken many pictures of the hotels we have stayed but going forward I will. I am going to start with December/Jan of last year and try to go forward. Our 2010 New Years weekend was celebrated at the Peabody in Orlando. It is one of our favorite places to stay.



They have a great lobby bar with piano player in the evening. It's a great place to relax before or after dinner


It's always decorated so nice




They have the best cookie I have ever tasted!



To continue with their duck theme (unfortunately I don't have a picture of this trip of the duck march through the lobby which is adorable)




And most important, it's walking distance to one of our favorite restaurants. Tavern Opa. The Greek food is delicious. They have a terrific happy hour from 3-6. Greek wine and beer is also very tasty. As it gets later in the evening, people start dancing on tables and napkins are thrown everywhere with everyone yelling 'opa'. It's fantastic.






I can't remember too much about what we did this trip. From looking through my pictures, I know we went to Seaworld, in addition we had some fantastic dinners. We ate our number one place Timpanos and know we ended our New Years Celebration at the Hard Rock at City Walk.

Happy New Year!! ( I am obsessed with taking pictures of the TV every year. Why I have no idea)


On to our next adventure
