Still Storming

We’ve had rain ever since last night, so we’ve been hanging out in the hotel. I wanted to do a little laundry, but each floor only has one unit and it’s currently in use. We grabbed some of the complimentary breakfast the hotel offers this morning and took it back to the room. The hotel lobby and common areas are crowded since local news stations are advising that people stay indoors until the hurricane passes over Florida.

From what they’ve been saying that should be later today, so we might be able to go out tonight and get a proper dinner. We are so stupid that we ended up at a buffet last night and it didn’t occur to us until we had already paid that we should have gone somewhere nice to celebrate. Duh! See? It’s like we were already married so it didn’t really hit us how significant the day was. We ended up walking around Old Town last night but left when it started pouring. It’s been raining ever since.

You know the weather sucks when Disney World is closed. That’s right: all Disney parks and Universal parks are closed today. SeaWorld is still open but I can’t imagine anyone actually went there. We hadn’t planned on visiting any of the parks today anyway, so it’s not a big deal, but it is getting boring sitting around in the hotel room. We ended up watching three back to back episodes of 24 on A&E. Now we’re hooked on the show (never watched it before).

Tomorrow it’s only supposed to be in the upper 60’s and you should see how the weather forecasters are acting like it’s going to be freezing out. Frankly I think that will make it more comfortable walking around. I just hope it warms up some by Sunday when we’re supposed to swim with the dolphins.
