We splurged this year, and reserved for 2 weeks. We arrived the Sunday after the Friday check in, but that was okay, as we still had 12 days.

The chocolate museum on I-Drive (International Drive) is quite a hoot. They actually make their own chocolate, and will give you some samples. Be sure to NOT mention Hershey’s, as they’re quire snobbish. These are some of their chocolate statues-very impressive.

They also don’t like you to interject during their talk about chocolate pioneers with bringing up Willia Wonka. I did that during the tour-the audience loved it, the tour guide, not so much.

And we always visit my sister, Jill, in Mt. Dora. We usually go out to lunch first-this year it was Jeremiah’s. The fried shrimp is great.

The Lego store in Disney Springs has some awesome constructions on display.
