We had a great time!!! The 4 of them were here for 2 weeks..and we covered a lot of ground in 2 weeks. John had a convention in Orlando and Patty and Doug had never been to Orlando, so John and the 4 of them drove the motor home up to Orlando. John set them up in an RV park and he went to the convention and the 4 of them did Disney for 3 days. They really had a good time. We then had tickets to the twins game and all 6 of us attended that. Then, because none of them had been to Key West, we all went to the Keys in the RV and stayed one night at a RV park. We shopped downtown Key West and went to dinner at Blue Heaven that night. The next day we pulled up camp and headed to the Everglades and went on an air boat ride and saw lots of alligators and birds. The tour guide was over the top with his tour info...but it was fun and none of us had done that before.
We also attended the Presbyterian church that John and I have gone to a few times and enjoyed the pastor's sermon. We went to downtown Ft Myers one night and ate outside at the French Connection Restaurant. We really had a good time.
