Vacation 2013...Well, we had planned to go to Cancun and had our passports ready to go. Since my sister works for Delta, it allows us to fly at a discounted rate. However, the only downside is that we have to fly standby. The benefits definitely out-weigh the risks, but it does make planning a vacation a little more interesting.
We had our passports, place to stay, and rental car all ready for us in Cancun. The only problem was that we weren't able to catch a flight there. The flights were completely full and we would have to waste several days of our vacation waiting for a flight out, so we decided to vacation elsewhere. We all woke up at 3 am to leave for the airport, but I checked the flights before we left and saw that they had filled up over night. We decided to change our plans and called the timeshare to see what our options were. We had four options: 1) some small town in Texas 2) Colorado 3) Virginia and 4) some small town in Florida.
So, since my Dad loves history and we love the beach, we decided that Williamsburg, Virginia would be a great compromise for all of us. I think that we all had pretty low expectations since we all had our hearts set on Cancun, but we ended up having a blast. It was probably one of the most relaxing vacations that we have ever been on. We weren't sure how well a 2-yr-old would do in Cancun, but he had a blast in Virginia.
Since we were making plans at 3 am, we didn't have a lot of time to research the location. Once we arrived, we found that there was a Busch Gardens about 20 miles away. We got a great deal on tickets to where we could buy a pass and re-enter as many times as we wanted throughout the entire vacation. It was perfect for our little family!
Here's how we spent our time at Busch Gardens:
