Bonjour!


We arrived Monday, Jan. 11th in Orlando, Florida around 9:30pm. It was a long day of traveling but we were happy to arrive. We went to sleep right away when we arrived at the house. It was a little chilly at night and not what we expected for Florida but it was better than rain all day!


We had a quick breakfast the next morning and headed to Universal and the World of Harry Potter. What an amazing place! They really did a great job making this attraction as realistic and as close to the movie set as possible. Even if you're not really into the Harry Potter movies, it's still very impressive.


We spent a half day walking around Universal Studios but 2.5 days visiting the World of Harry Potter. Spoiler alert, I have included some photos here:

Today, Friday, Jan. 15th, we spent at the house. It was nice to take a "day off" and have some quiet away from the crowds. It was very stormy today. Lots of rain, thunder and lightning until about noon. Then the sun came out for the rest of the day and it was much warmer. Florida is very beautiful!


Tomorrow, we return the car and head to the hotel. The next 5 days is in DisneyWorld. Ben is having a great time! How could he not?


Again, thank you to all of you for making this trip possible. It is such a nice break from all our worries and stresses.


Sending you lots of sun!

Wow, the World of Harry Potter looks amazing! It must have been rather special to be there this week in particular. I'm so glad you are all having a wonderful time together. Great photo of the dragon Rre against the blue sky!

Bonjour, Michel, Pam, Ben and Stephanie

Hoping that you are having a great time in that galaxy far, far away and wishing you a safe and comfortable return home this weekend ... if you don't decide to stay in the warm sunshine a little longer.

XOXOXOXO
