Without a doubt it is beautiful here. We are in Lake Buena Vista, Florida on the grounds adjacent to Disney's Carribean Beach Resort and Epcot Center. These photos are from our balcony in our second floor hideaway. Down the way on the other side of the lake is the resort's main pool and lazy river. I will try to take more pics there to share. AND if I can get some good pics of the Epcot fireworks I will share those also. But for now, I would love it if you could see the lovely condo unit which we will call home for the next week.
Well, it was a LONG time comin'! We had our challenges getting here, but now we are starting the process of decompressing and I wanted to share a bit of where we are currently decompessing. These pictures are of the living room at our resort condo. Such lovely tuscan style decor!
Of course, everyone needs a nice, luxurious master bedroom and bath and here is ours, above.
And my ds' room. I couldn't get a pic of his bathroom that looked any good. It is very nice, but just a standard bathroom.
Lastly, but not least-ly...the kitchen and dining area. NO...I will NOT be cooking. But we have made sure to pick up some cereal, lunchmeat, milk, and a variety of items that will come in handy this week.
We are hearing word that the storm will pass by, grazing to our west this week. Hope so...or we will be washed out. But I think we will be ok and if we have to stay in a day or two, we will do just that. It is about family...not about the parks, not about the pools, not about animated characters. It's not even about the Ghirardelli chocolate...although it's a close race...haha! So we will be family...a little, happy family...and we will enjoy this vacation. And maybe, just maybe, I will get to meet dear, sweet Andie while I am here. So all in all, it will be good and while I am away, my mom and sis are taking care of sweet Max and he is doing just a bit better than when I left, so I am at peace and just keeping him in prayer.
As I have updates, I will post this week!

Carolyn -
Your hideaway is wonderful. I'll be visiting the Kingdom of Magic in May and can't wait! You are absolutely right, though. Your vacation is about family. The magic isn't in the stuff, it's in the memories that you all will make. Enjoy your sweet time together!

What a great condo! Enjoy your family time--no matter what the weather! I'll say a prayer that the storm will miss you...and more for Max.
Pink hugs, Karen
Ohh I hope you don't get stormed out...or in.
But even if you do you have a beautiful place to relax and weather the storm in.
