This is a truism.With frenzied last minute errands and packing before a flight at the crack of dawn.
Ugh... Yuck.our 2:30 AM wake up call.
"Unfortunately, the car was stolen during the night, so we had to buy all new clothes. Yay!"Mike was smart enough to load the car up the night before so we could minimize what we had to do this early morning.
This is the most Canadian thing ever.I also remembered my trick from June of stopping at the Tim Hortons drive thru to get breakfast sandwiches to bring to the airport since nothing is open this early.
There's something on your noses. Probably Tim Hortons coffee.
Did he ask for a bite?As we were eating them, a couple sat down near us and the woman kept gesturing to the man at our food. A few minutes later, he came over to ask where we got them and was immensely confused when I said we brought them with us.
He said "You're allowed to bring that through security?" I refrained from saying obviously since we did since he was actually very nice and just said yes. He walked back to his spouse shaking his head in confusion and Kimberly and I cracked up.
"No you can't. But we taped them to our legs and snuck them through."
Lullabies, I presume.We spent the flight listening to music and sleeping.
Oh, so you're a risk taker.I booked a rental car and got a good rate through Advantage. I was a little anxious because I'd seen mixed reviews online about the company.
That's good. I always use National (Get a good rate through work) and thankfully don't encounter that.I'd read awful reviews of the employees being rude and pushy with upsells and people getting charged extra at the counter and i'm happy to say we experienced none of that.
Basic is fine. It just needs to get you from A to B.It was very basic but fine.
Ah! I know the place now! (From you, of course.)Our hotel for the first night was the Rosen Inn nearest Universal.
Ha! Got a bit spoiled by Disney!The only downside was there was no text or phone call to indicate when your room was ready, you just had to go back to the front desk and check.
In case you were curious, here's the breakfast menu.
Still counts.And wouldn't you know, there was another Christmas tree to be found.
This one was of the Charlie brown variety.
I've never been. I'm okay with that.I've been going to the outlets for years
Wow! Nice score!I ended up getting a set of beauty and the beast dish towels, a Food and Wine shirt, a Halloween party shirt, a Br' er rabbit wishable, a couple pins and what I was most excited for- the food and wine Minnie ears for $5.99! I spent under $30 and was very excited!
