ROAD TRIP! Virginia to Florida and back with a New Orleans trip in there: Jupiter to Celebration Florida

We awoke to a rainy drizzly day. We had planned to go to the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary on our way out of town but were iffy about it due to the weather. We decided since there was no admission fee, just donations, we would go and if it was miserable due to the weather we would leave. It was FAR from miserable! We put on our rain gear and enjoyed a stroll thru the grounds viewing the animals. The animals here cannot be released into the wild for whatever reason. Often they have been part of the pet trade and then people give them up. So now they are housed here and used as an educational tool.

We later happily left a $20 donation and hit the road, headed for Celebration. I was taken by how much land in Florida is undeveloped! I guess much is swamp.

We arrived to the smell of freshly baking cinnamon rolls. David is an EXCELLENT cook! After our cinnamon roll "appetizer" Steph, David and I took a walk to deliver some to a friend of theirs. Celebration is very different than Lake Monticello - there are sidewalks and lighted paths. You could NOT go for an after dark walk in LM without flashlights and stepping off the road as any car approached! After a yummy dinner we enjoyed an evening of playing games.

Sunday David gave me an EGGCELLENT treat (get it?) of my fave breakfast in the world - Eggs Benedict! No guilt here - I scarfed those babies down and enjoyed every morsel.

I forgot to take a before pic I was so EGGCITED... so here's the after pic.

Then off to the Celebration Day Spa for a mani/pedi with Steph. A nap and a bit of chill time later, off to Downtown Disney to check out the building going on down there and for a tethered balloon ride!
