For those who care about traveling to Washington D.C. , from NYC, in a shorter amount of time, there’s good news. Amtrak is offering a morning train ride service on thier Acela Express train. I mean it’s only 10 minutes shorter, but every little bit helps.
I went to Florida to visit Andy’s family. His little brother, who is 12 years old, is just as tall as Andy. His brother also wears a size 11 shoe. I cant imagine how tall he will be at 18 y.o. I went to Disney World for the first time and we visited Epcot Center. I went to a few attractions and I had a great time. Andy’s father also had a pool at his house. We took pictures of us diving in then we later played basketball. I’m becoming very good. And finally, Andy and I went to the Shell Factory to buy some souvenirs. Above all, we had a great time and we wish we were still there. The pictures are not in order. Just look and enjoy :-).
here’s one of me and the boys :-). Write you 2morrow.
 
I’m on vacation and for the last two days, I have become very ill. The good news is that I am getting a little better today. I couldnt sleep last night because since I have a sore throat I kept choking on my own spit. LOL, yes its true. Andy couldnt sleep either because of my coughing but he did help me last night. He would add extra pillows so I lie more upright. That way I dont have to choke on my spit. LOL… sorry for being too graphic but its true.
Prior to last night, that morning, Andy and I decided to go to Walgreens to buy some allergy medicine and cough drops. We went to the cashier, at the pharmacy, to buy the stuff and the lady asked Andy for his driver’s license. I am not sure why they need a DL to buy allergy medicine but I am just going to assume its protocol. Anyways, she commented on his DL saying that the numbers are too small and she doesnt know how people can read these things. She was trying to be funny. But what she later says shocks the hell out of us. She asked us if the abbreviations for New Jersey are N.J.? We are like “What the F%#@!!!” Who in the hell, unless you are two years old, dont know that the abbreviations for New Jersey? There is no excuse for this type of stupidity. And while being in Florida, we have encounter a few stupid people. Believe me I am not saying that people up North are geniuses, but at least we know the States’ abbreviations. Especially a state as easy as New Jersey. Anyway, we thought that was very interesting.
For the most part, we would stay at his father’s house, hop in the pool, watch T.V., eat and just “chillax”. I dont want this vacation to end, but as you know…”Good things will come to an end”. My intentions for this trip was to go to Miami, South Beach, etc and most likely I may not go this time around. But next time, I will.
ETA: I just want to mention that I know the abbreviation for Florida is “FL”. Please note the (”") around the letters “FA” in the subject line. If you read the post, you will understand that I was being facetious. Thanx “R” for the comment.

I made it to Florida yesterday. The flight was good. I fell asleep a couple of times. I didnt get much sleep the night before. Once I arrive it was so hot and Andy and I were waiting for his father at the Fort Myers Airport. It was weird how both of them were growing beards and neither one planned it. I guess the apple doesnt fall to far from the tree.
Anyway, we shopped at Walmart to pick up a few things and then we ate Chinese food and talked. I am having a good time so far. This is my second visit to Florida. The first time his father lived in Fort Lauderdale. I love Ft. Lauderdale because there were things to do and I am a city girl so I am used to noise. But in Cape Coral, where Andy’s father currently lives, its so quiet and its driving me crazy. I mean its a nice place to retire, but I dont think I can retire in such a quiet environment. The fam has plans to go to Disney World 2morrow. I cant wait because I never been to Disney World before. I hope I have a great time. I’m sure I will. Andy will also get the chance to visit his high school friend, Chris, from Jamaica. I hope I can post pics up because I would like for everyone to see what I do on a daily basis, we’ll see. If not then you guys will have to wait till I get back.
-Write to you l8r 
I am going to Florida with big head, Andrew, in May for a week. I cant wait. I need a vacation :-). I promise to take lots of pictures.
