Orange You Glad (Orlando, FL)

It was all sun, all fun on a recent trip to Orlando.

I was delighted to find out that I would be flying with Y.P., one of the women I befriended while in {flight attendant training}. She's originally from Russia, so she has this adorable accent, and her personality is so bubbly and positive, its a pleasure to work with her. We joined up with B.O., who graduated in the class previous and was equally fun to be around. She had lived in Orlando since she was 19, so we relied on her for directions when we decided to go on our Floridian adventure.

We saw an upside down building, rode a trolley, stopped for ice cream, and admired stone animals and towering fountains. We even briefly considered going to {Downtown Disney} (rides, restaurants and sites similar to Disney but without having to pay to get in to admission) but decided we wanted to have some pool time. We stayed at {this} fabulous resort hotel which had multiple restaurants and a giant pool. I was a goon and forgot to bring my bathing suit, but YP lent me some black shorts, and I just jumped in wearing those and my black bra. Nobody noticed and it was so totally worth it! The water is perfect this time of year, and we all spent a good hour sunbathing and splashing around. I, being unable to tan, doused myself in a good SPF 55 before hitting the diving board. Good times ensued.

We were rather sad to leave Vacation Heaven, but we had a great time and enjoyed each other's company. YP and the First Officer (who was from Sweden) talked about how many languages each of them knew, and the process of becoming an American Citizen. I felt slightly guilty that I can only speak English competently and Spanish rather poorly. Time to brush up on my {duolingo}, I guess!

  4. Website traffic doesn't come easy these days. It’s hard and it usually takes a long time. In many cases, too much time… So much that you might be ready to call it quits. One of my readers shared a website traffic service with me on my site and I thought I would share it with you. I was skeptical at first but I tried their free trial period and it turns out they are able to get hundreds of visitors to my website every day. My advertising revenue has increased tenfold. Check them out here: http://gmbal.com/1811l

  6. Great shots of the hotel. Most of the properties near MCO are kind of marginal. I have a friend who posts as "Flight Attendant X" at http://hotelnightmares.com who has sent some really disturbing stuff from her regular layover hotel there. Starts with an R.
