Just got back

Haven't been to Orlando since January 2107, when DD got married.
Just browsing the BA website in November and found a great deal, flying from Gatwick staying at Rosen at Pointe Orlando for 8 nights (its our eighth stay there) so would have been rude not to book it

We didn't book any parks, decide to just go with the flow and relax.
Train to Gatwick was a breeze, twilight check-in as we got off the train,
A night in Premier Inn A23, easy walk across to terminal next morning, good flight and picked car up at Alamo
Had requested a high floor room in block F which they gave us floor ten.
We were weak and had a day at MK, it was busier than I thought it would be but got our fix.
We also succumbed and had a day at Seaworld

Had a day at Cocoa Beach
DD had booked us into O'hanas and given us dollars for Christmas and really enjoyed that.
Best meal was at Uno's best pizza I've ever had

BJ's was good too and the beer was from their own brewery so no Bud or Coors which was a nice change.
Half price cocktails in Dave and Busters before 7 O'clock, so we did partake in a few

All in all it was a great trip, turned a bit cold last couple of days.
Noticed it all seemed a bit more expensive in the grocery stores and outlets, still got some bargains though.
Well that's our little trip in a nutshell, back to work on Tuesday

sounds like you had a great trip .. how did you request the high floor in block F ( I have asked for the same facing I drive through their website but only had a generic reply) I really enjoyed our stay last year in block F floor 6

Sounds like you had a lovely break, any plans for a return?

My DD requested the room through Facebook they said they would do their best. We had room 3012 which was next to the last room on tenth floor overlooking I Drive it was perfect 😊

Dont think so not for a while anyway, we've done a couple of road trips round the states, and really enjoyed them, so maybe try and plan another
