Day One cont.
With one damp sleeve, and humiliation in tow, Amanda and I got on the monorail to the Grand Floridian. While approaching The Contemporary Resort, we saw the "mystery contruction zone".
When we stepped off the monorail, and into the Grand Floridian, we were in total awe of the Tree!
Amanda even took a pic of the tree and texted to her Mom!
After being blown-away, we made our way downstairs to see the ginger bread house. As we approached it, we were surprised at the aroma! It smelled soooooo good!
Now don't beat me up, but I must say, that I was surprised that it wasnt bigger. To me, it looked larger on the Travel Channel. BUT! It was still impressive, and I loved all the little details . . .
After looking around a bit more, it was time for Amanda and I to split up :guilty: I had to go back to the room to freshen up for dinner, and Amanda needed a mid-day nap. We said our goodbyes on Monorail since my stop was first.
It was a GREAT first day. I couldnt believe that I'd already had so much fun, on the first half of my first day. Hopefully it was just a sign of more fun to come. After all, they say that getting pooped on by a bird is good luck . . . we'll see!
