Just a taste of Heaven

Eighteen hours of driving, three hours of being stuck in traffic (Thanks, Virginia), lots of improvisation -- AND WE'RE HERE! The destination? Buena Vista, Orlando, Florida -- also known as Kissimmee, FL.

The Holiday Inn Resort Lake Buena Vista welcomed us on Saturday afternoon. It's been two days and I have yet to see any disappointment from this hotel. There's an Applebee's restaurant attached to the lobby, which made figuring out what was for dinner a breeze after that long drive, PLUS "Kids Eat Free" if you're staying at the hotel (yesss!). There's a convenient store, arcade, and home theatre (mainly for children) in the lobby area as well, so there's really no need to get bored.

The pool is heated and a great amenity for the family. My personal favorite is the hot tub, of course. There's nothing like a glass of wine (which they sell in the convenient store) and  a hot tub to sink into.
Imagine yourself slowly submerging into what you think will be a scorching hot tub, but finding that it is a perfect balance of the already hot Florida weather and what your body temperature can handle -- perfection. And the view , well…see for yourself...



And with a religious family like mine, you can't forget going to church on Sunday morning.

Forget the traditional Pentecostal/Non-denominational charismatic church with a live band. Oh, no! We went to the place it all began -- The Holy Land [Experience] for our morning church service. I don't have anything meaningful to report, but I really love this building/temple.

There are still 4 days to make this trip in Florida exciting.
