My youngest daughter leaves on her band’s Disney trip today at 2 PM.  They have a long trip ahead of them by motor coach. They do get to go to other places besides Disney World in Florida.

Tomorrow morning they get to go to Cocoa Beach for a day in the sun, surf and sand. Then they get to go into Ron Jon’s Surf Shop, the “Largest Surf Shop in the World”. Not many of them will be able to buy a surf board and put on top of the bus. They will buy plenty of T-shirts.They will go to the Jetty Park at Port Canaveral where they will get to see Kennedy Space Center’s launch pads in the distance and have a cook out there. Afterwards on to the hotel at Disney. To top off the day, they get to go to Medieval Times Dinner Show and Tournament.

Thursday, they go to Epcot at the WDW Resort. The band will be performing at Epcot at the World Showcase March in the early evening. So they have the day to wander 3 different parks.

Friday, they get to eat at the Rainforest Cafe for breakfast at downtown Disney. Then to Animal Kingdom in the morning, Disney’s Hollywood Studios in the afternoon and then a do not miss show of Fantasmic. The Fantasmic is where Disney characters arise on giant mist screens 50 feet high and 100 feet wide to familiar Disney melodies.

Saturday, the band group gets to go to Planet Hollywood for breakfast. Then they go to Magic Kingdom  at 10 AM till 10 PM to load up on the buses to head home.

I hope there are 2 bus drivers to rotate on coming and going to Florida because of the long driving trip. The band will be back around 6:30 PM Sunday night. I am going to enjoy the quietness around the house. Though I do wish I could have afforded to send myself to Florida to visit my oldest daughter and friends. The cost for my youngest daughter for just the main part of the trip is $500, not counting for souvenirs and extra food cost. Hope she has fun as this is her Senior year in high school.
