It’s been a week since we arrived in Florida. So how’s it going? Well the unloading and unpacking went A LOT smoother than the loading did. I was dreading it after having the loading take so long. And unpacking went pretty quickly as well. We got rid of a lot of stuff before we moved,…
We have been here in Orlando for about five days so far. Things are starting to get unpacked and we are settling in. We arrived on Monday night (October 26th) and now Sunday November 1st is our first Disney meet up! It’s with the Disney Periscopers group. These are ones who, like us, do live broadcasts…
