Last Leg of Our Journey

Our last night in Orlando, we had to re-pack all of our stuff because it had all had to be cleaned and we had bought some things on the trip.  We stayed up until midnight and then had to get up at 4:00 am!  We had to drive to the Sanford/Orlando Airport (Sanford is where that Martin boy was shot) in the dark, to catch a 6:50 am flight.  It was dark the whole drive and when we boarded the plane and it felt like we were "sneaking" out of Florida!!  We were so tired, we went right to sleep after take-off and didn't wake up until we were landing in Fort Wayne.  Luckily, we didn't have a lay-over on this flight.

Brent and his brother-in-law, Ryan, had taken our car to the airport and left it the day before, so it would be there for us.  That was really nice.  When we got home, we ate some cereal and went to bed and slept until 5 pm!  We had had about all the fun we could stand! lol  It seemed strange being down there with all of those beautiful palm trees and then Whoosh! we're home!  Now our cruise and the rest of our trip are memories and pictures.  We had such a wonderful time!  I really want to go back to Florida again, as it is one of my favorite states now!

We really enjoyed the scenery down there.  Everywhere we went it was gorgeous like this:

But when we drove into our driveway, our little tree out front that we thought might be dead, looked like this:
There is beauty all around us.  It may not be a palm tree, but it is beautiful!!
