Comfort Inn Universal Studios Area (FL707)
6101 Sand Lake Road , Orlando, FL, US, 32819 | Phone: (407) 363-7886 Rm 104

Nice clean room in a big hotel, but not large room, but includes coffee & cookies.  Lots of TV Choice, but much is pay.

They ate at 2 PM, today, there was a Perkins with a Senior Steak.  (Bob Evans is for later).  They had dessert for the first time, Wildberrry Pie for Nick, Coconut Creme for Bernie, but the creme was thick and hard, like icing.

There is even some snow in the woods, but the trees are greening up; no flowers yet.

Almost a collision.  There was a Blue Heron on the entrance ramp, Nick slowed down and the Heron went into the swamp.

They drove around the St. Augustine outlets, but nothing was appealing enough to stop.

The shower control in Brunswick was odd.  Nick can’t read the signals, but he can test it.  It seemed plumbed in backwards to him.

The shower here is roll in, but there is no bench.

We got connected to Norma, who is home.  Three way calling didn’t work on the first try, and I didn’t want to make them uncomfortable, so I did it the old way; two calls on two lines, speakerphones on and close together.

Maybe sandwiches tonight.

Maybe.

    it was a long trip… not too cold, but haven’t seen any flowers yet – they were spraying the orange trees the other night to keep them from freezing – but this week will be 76

    heard about the wild berry and coconut cream pies

    BLT yesterday really good – fresh made – not much tomato, but lot’s of bacon. Hashbrowns with the works – mushrooms, chili, Choc cream pie – better than the coconut cream today – w/ choc crumb crust.

    Bernie appreciated PW getting Norma on the phone

    Dad relayed how he should have looked at the Jersey map just as PW suggested…..so that was exhausting wasting time in Southern Jersey. He was beat by the time they got to motel.

    And a little sweating in MD – driving into the sun, neither could read the signs – and sun intense on the dashboard so can’t read speed, so just keep up with traffic (maybe drove faster than he would have)

    Cool enough to have the heat on. Only 1 chair .

    Call them again sometime….
