Beyond Expectations

Expectations are a funny thing. We had few of them when we entered this crazy online contest. We thought mostly of the fun we might have riding roller coasters or of the serenity we might find basking in the Florida sunshine. We found ourselves wondering whether or not out wives were really ok with us taking off on this madcap adventure. Did we really believe we were the type of people they were looking for? As the contest grew closer these expectations were infused with anticipation of what we might experience while visiting Orlando. Would we get to go to Disney World? What types of restaurants might we visit? Is the ocean close by? In considering all these aspects of our upcoming journey we looked past what ended up being the pinnacle of our Orlando experience; time spent creating memories and sharing smiles with a group of truly extraordinary individuals. Thank you Orlando for providing the perfect setting that allowed us all to experience something truly joyful.

  1. Thanks for the comment, Mikey. I really enjoyed getting to know you both over these past few days and am honestly sad we can't have breakfasts like that once a week... Can't wait to come to Canada to visit! Good luck with everything!
