We met our California family in Florida for a week at the Hilton Grand Vacations Club in Orlando. After a hectic drive from Cocoa Beach to Flip's to get the car seat then to the resort to drop off Susan so everyone could fit into the car and then to the airport to pick up the family and back to the resort (whew!) we finally all met up and got to our suite for the week. It was a very nice room with two bedrooms, two baths, living space, porch, kitchen, laundry, on one side and a smaller hotel-like room on the other side for the inlaws. We were near the pools, playground, and basketball court.
On Wednesday, the first full day, we just chilled at the resort (that is the adults chilled...the kids ran full-speed ahead). Luke and Leah discovered a ping-pong table and had a lot of fun with that.
On Thursday we sat in on an owner's update and breakfast at a new resort Hilton is constructing, then tackled Sea World for the day. Rich and Lars wanted to hit all the shows the first day, so we watched the dolphin and bird show, the otter show, the whale show, and an acrobat show. We also had time for some rides and the kids climbed in a huge above-ground play area. Luke's favorite was the water roller-coaster. Grandma's favorite was the carousel (of course), and Leah's favorite was the kiddie coaster. Pop-pop only rode one - the water roller coaster. I think Laurel liked them all, but agreed with Luke on her favorite.
