More Fall Vacation

After leaving St. Augustine we drove down to Orlando and checked in the Gaylord Palms hotel. The hotel itself deserved a day of exploring. We loved the kiddie pool area. One of the best parts was that it is a huge pool and it doesn't go over 4 ft. deep anywhere so Lydia was able to touch bottom everywhere in the pool! We also had a lot of fun playing with Rafael's waterproof digital camera that I bought him for Father's Day. (It was a replacement for the camera he dropped in the lake)
The inside of the hotel has a huge attrium and the kids were in heaven with all the fish and alligators. Andrew would wake up in the morning and try to open the hotel room door and cry for the fish. I loved all the vegetation. They had orchids everywhere and they were so beautiful!!! We all loved this hotel and Lydia is still telling me that she wishes we could go back there and live.
