Until I head down to Florida for vacation! I cannot wait. I'll be in Magic Kingdom this Thursday (7/2) then going to Universal Friday & Saturday (7/3, 7/4) and Seaworld on Sunday (7/5). Still unsure where were going to go and see fireworks on the 4th.. I've heard Epcott has the best show.

I'm also taking a vacation to Florida the upcoming week, too.

 

[JusZenTFN]

Oh yeah? Maybe I'll see you there man and we can hangout or something. Let me know.

Problem is, I don't know where my family and I will be, and what we'll be doing there. So, maybe we can see each other, bump into each other or something, but I don't know what we'll be doing.

 

[JusZenTFN]

Anywhere near Orlando?

 

[Carlos]

Anywhere near Orlando?

Nope. Miami.

 

[JusZenTFN]

Ahh.. that's far away from me. Sucks we'll be that close and not get to meetup though.

 

[Carlos]

So, what'd you think of Orlando, Florida?

I thought Miami, Florida was cool. Had fun in the beautiful weather...

Then, thereafter, I went to Puerto Rico, I think the unique buildings, and the beaches are the only things that make Puerto Rico a nice place to vacation... However, it's possibly the worst place to live in, from the looks of things. It's so poor that you can see gang graffiti, literally EVERYWHERE. Most houses are abandoned, most streets are quiet, and most highways are quiet - I will go as far as saying that I imagine the murder rate, the crime rate there is so high, you can literally get away with anything. Literally.

Stories like this one: http://www.foxnews.com/world/2015/0...rate-in-nearly-15-year-as-island-takes-steps/ Reflects my theory.

It was awesome. We went to all the parks. My favorite was definitely Universal. I just love the feel of that park and it has The Hulk which is the best rollercoaster I've ever been on and that's saying something because I've been on every single rollercoaster on the east coast and at cedar point in Ohio. We hit a couple places on the way back too. We went the Georgia Aquarium which is amazing, we went to the Grand Ole Opry and did a backstage tour where they show you the dressing rooms and all the different stuff. Finally we hit Ripleys Believe it or Not museum in NC.

It was a very long trip, especially with 13 people in one van and I would have much rather flown. However, we saved a LOT of money doing it that way and bonded more as a family I think. Still though 24 hours is a long drive.. lol.

Sounds like a grand good ol' time!

You wouldn't want to fly during that week. United Airlines has been screwy the whole week. Our flights were delayed the minute we arrived because of stupid employee straight-up canceled our flights. We had to wait hours before we could have flown. In fact, we missed a day JUST because of his stupidity. When we returned, they did it again, and this time - it was due to a computer glitch or something.

During the vacation, I heard that most United Airlines flights were completely grounded. I'd say, you had less headaches to deal with than any one of us flyers.

 

[JusZenTFN]

Yeah.. how long ahead of time did you have it planned though? I've heard if you plan it out well before the prices are cheaper and it's a lot less headaches.

My mom bought the ticket like 6, 8 months ago, so yeah... we planned for a long time. We even arrived at the airport 2-3 hours ahead of time to avoid this shit.

 

[JusZenTFN]

Hmm... weird that sucks.

Yeah, no kidding...
