Wanda, I'm glad you had a great time on your trip, but after reading it I do not think you realize what an effect hurricane Charley (and Frances) had on the people who live here. I live in Orlando and can tell you that many people (including many many castmembers) suffered a lot damage both physical and emotional. We did not have any damage to our house but were without power for 5 days, and we were the lucky ones. All I could think about when I read your report is what the castmembers must be going through trying to be cheerfull when their personal lives are in turmoil. I would just like everyone who was here during Charlie and had their vacations inconvienienced to remember that the people who were taking care of you were very likely under a lot of stress at home. Not to try to be a downer or anything but this storm has affected people who live here greatly and I hope that visitors remember that when things do not go exactly as they had hoped.

I've just finished reading your trip report and have loved every word of it. It sounds like you had a great time and it's wonderful to hear that your kids get on so well together. It must've been great to be able to let them go where they liked and head back to the hotel when they wanted to.

Thanks for sharing this with us.
