Me (artyboy) - 40ish and lifelong Disney Freak.:mickey:
My Partner (Jack) - also 4oish, but a step or two down the Disney Freak scale.:blush:

A Quick Note: I had arranged a surprise trip as a Christmas present for my parnter. I initially had reserved accomodations for the 26th- 30th.

So...I handed Jack his present on Christmas Eve...a box containing a packed suitcase!:number1:

He promptly went to the computer and reserved a rental car (a PT Cruiser) and a hotel (a Wyndham on I-Drive, right next to the Ripley's Museum) both at awesome prices...gotta love the internet.. so that we could drive up on the 25th.

So we left a day early (driving up the Florida Keys on Christmas Day was way less crowded than had we waited and drove the next day)...we took our time and finally arrived at our hotel around 10 pm...check in was smooth, and the room was fine...we just needed it to crash.

More to come...thanks for reading!

Nice surprise! I've always liked the look of the PT Cruiser, but I've never driven one. I always get the smallest car available from the rental place....mainly so I can PARK it here in NYC lol!

I'm off to read more...
