Traveling to Orlando

Obligatory airplane selfie.

Upon our arrival at the Orlando airport, we were greeted by the same chauffeur we had in 2013. What are the odds?

Untitled

Our first stop that night was the Pub, our favorite place to eat in the area.

Untitled

Our first drinks in Orlando.

Untitled

Brian’s favorite meal.

Untitled

I love the fish and chips at the Pub. This time they had an option on the menu to get fish and chips and shrimp.

Untitled

It was a nice night for a walk, so we took the long way back to our hotel. Grabbed a few pics on the way.

Untitled

It was a long day but there’s always time for a few pics.

Untitled

We stayed at the Hilton this time because the Hyatt Regency was already full by the time I registered, which was within a couple of hours of registration opening. It was ridiculous. Anyway, the Hilton also does the commemorative ZINCON keys so at least I still got one to add to my collection.

We went to check out the fitness center in the morning. It was decent but not as nice as the one at the Hyatt.

Untitled

I guess it’s a lot nicer than most hotel gyms.

Untitled

We did some exploring that day.

Untitled

The rooms are just okay and it’s on the opposite side of the Orange County Convention Center from the Hyatt so the location is not idea but the resort pool is phenomenal!

Untitled

It is much bigger and nicer than the resort pool at the Hyatt.

Untitled

Untitled

And, they have a lazy river. Bonus!

Untitled

Untitled

There’s even a splash pool for the kiddos.

Untitled

Untitled

There are a few fire pit areas with food and beverage service.

Untitled

The pool grounds are super nice!

Untitled

Besides that, it’s like a legit resort with activities and everything. I just wish it wasn’t so far away. Anyway, next post will be all about ZINCON. Check back soon!
