An awesome vacation
The first family reunion that included in-laws, brothers, sisters, daughters, nephews, and nieces in the United States in 12 years was a monumental task. Family members came from five cities in three countries and did not necessarily have a passion for fun rides in various Disney Theme Parks. I tried to find a place that would meet the requirements of four families and was fortunate to find this fabulous lake-view villa, which is safe, clean, gorgeous, and very close to Disney. My kids were able to go to Magic Kingdom in the morning, came back home (yes, the villa offered us the comforts we enjoyed at home) to take a nap, and hopped to Animal Kingdom in the afternoon. We were also charmed by the fancy clubhouse in a quiet community. Our neighbors were nice and friendly. This home fit all of our needs: my in-laws enjoyed the hot tub in the morning while my brothers watched Olympic water polo games on TV in the living room. Kids swam in the pool right after the trip to Disney World and parents barbecued on the patio. After kids went to sleep, the swimming pool finally belonged to us, which reminded us that we used to play as little kids thirty years ago in a much smaller pool in our hometown. It's amazing that after so many years we found each other again in Florida. And I demonstrated to my sisters that I became a great chef. I didn't notice that Wal-Mart was just few miles away when I planned the trip. I managed to serve my relatives delicious Italian food and Shiraz. In Canada, I just could not purchase wine from grocery stores due to the tough liquor regulations. The dream vacation was too short and before we left, we reached the consensus to visit this place next year. Hats off to the owner of this house!
