Orlando, Travel Leader's National Convention


Hi! It's Raegan, Brandi and Jerry. We all traveled to Orlando in November for the Travel Leader's National Convention. We stayed at the Gaylord Palms Resort which is 1/2 mile from Walt Disney World. This resort is HUGE with an atrium with live alligators, a pirate ship and beautiful gardens. There were shops and restaurants and four wings of rooms. We stayed in the St. Augustine wing. We ate dinner at The Flying Fish at Disney's Boardwalk Inn Resort. This is a beautiful restaurant with wonderful cuisine and wine. They had the best crab cakes we have ever had! We spent most of our time in meetings but on the last night Disney opened The Animal Kingdom just for Travel Leaders and we saw the Finding Nemo show and were served a great dinner in Dinoland. We rode the DINOSAUR ride and played arcade games and then moved to the Asia section of the park for amazing desserts and several turns on Expedition Everst Roller Coaster - in the dark! What fun!
