Day 15: Sea World VIP

August 7th, 2010 · 1 Comment

Google translated!

Today we have the Magic just behind us and went to Sea World.

While we always love to get Sea World, this time we have seriously wondered if this time we have wanted to go to Sea World. Earlier this year there is an orca trainer died and since then during the show will no longer coaches the water. Of course we understand this, but the great strength of the show Believe all is the interaction between orca and trainer!

Through the Dutch forum ‘Orlando tips’ we found the website of Attraction Tickets Direct. We still needed tickets for (a.o.) Seaworld and Islands of Adventure, so we started snooping around the site. Who knows what we’ll find…

Overdue for an update

February 25th, 2010 · Comments Off on Overdue for an update

It’s been a while since the last update, but not much is happening right now…

The Disney villa has been booked, all Table Service ADRs are made, car is rented (mid-size SUV from National through USA-reisen.de) en now we wait until hotel prices drop on Hotwire and/or Priceline…

Given the changed in the Flying Blue program (they now give level and award miles based on ticket class… Some give the normal 100% miles, others 75, 50, 25 or even 0% (!!!) of miles flown!) I am assuming this will be our last trip for a while… The chance of me gathering enough miles to be able to go again in 2 years seems very small to me at this time!

But anyway, we’ll ponder that later, for now we’ll focus on our upcoming trip!   🙂

NOTE: “Google-translated”! Updated manual translation will follow…

Seaworld This morning we didn’t set an alarm because we really have nothing to do, aside from a dinner at Seaworld!
Only, this morning we were awakened at seven am by Geordi who accidentally had urinated in his bed. Miriam was miffed for quite a while, but he could not really help it. He was very tired yesterday and slept very solid tonight. So it was early morning. Miriam dozed a bit more in Samantha’s bed.
