Foul Friday into Set off Saturday

The title has double meaning.  1st and foremost the smell was horrible.  2nd is was another sick day.  I started getting sick this day.  Abi was running slight fever and had some congestion.  Then Bill around 10 pm or so was visiting the throne.   I know, I know, TMI but face it this was our vacation.

With little to no sleep I was roused by Josh.  You know what's coming, the next victim.  We could not get out of that place fast enough.  (It was still to early to leave about 4 am.)  We rested some more and I was able to get two solid hours of sleep.  We packed up as quick as we physically could and set off for our ride home.  While hoping and praying to get home in one day, I was skeptical as I had no more that 8 hours sleep in the previous 3 nights.

Made good time.  Hit some accidents.  It was bike week in Orlando and they did not fair so well on the ride home.  It was not a good sight when we passed one accident.  Prayers went for that one.

With many stops later and more traffic we were able to make it to Virginia about midnight for some sleep.  Let's just say that we would not have made it that far but the Lord had other plans.  A whole hour prior we began stopping to find a place but they were booked!!!   Bill looked on iPad and found a place so we forged forward.  The best thing was that we only had a few hours of drive time then on Sunday.  5 hours!!!

As for this vacation... It has cured me of Disney.  I have no desire to go back anytime soon.  The entire vacation was very unusual for us.  The kids even were not happy with this one.  Stephen said it was the worst vacation ever.  I could not dispute that.
