Weekend Getaway!


We had such a great, great time for 3 days up in Orlando at Portofino Bay this past weekend. Above is where we stayed. A taste of Italy!! 
A sweet treat for our anniversary from the hotel staff!! I love love love strawberries dipped in chocolate. Let me tell you that these didn't stand a chance and within seconds were GONEZO!Arm shot, as we waited for the water taxi to bring us to City Walk. It was about 100℉ outside! Needless to say we were HOT... We couldn't wait to get our hands on a slushy drink.Adam models in front of the Portofino Bay Resort. Beautiful place. This is our first night there, and we were off to a nice dinner to let the celebrating begin. P.S. How handsome is my husband... :)Water Taxi ride up to City Walk. The serene grounds... although I failed to get a good couple shot haha. Emeril's Restaurant is where we had dinner. D-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s!!! We spent Saturday afternoon at the pool. Notice Adam in the above picture ~ where's Waldo!! LOL
Margaritaville is where we spent a few hours people watching!! Isn't that fun haha... It was like a tiki-bar on the strip. Perfect place for a nice drink! We really enjoyed that & great conversations!!This is the "hectic" City Walk where you can find Universal Studios and so much more...
Adam took the opportunity to familiarize himself with his camera. Great pictures babe!! I will post a full album on http://adammonique.spaces.live.com ☺
This is one of many shots... I sat here as Adam walked around and snapped away. Now, we both would LOVE to go to the real Italy!!! 
Pic-A-Boo! Indoors, you would find these little hallways to replicate the feel of Italy. And did it ever work well.
My husband ♡ We are making our way to a Sushi Bar at Royal Pacific. It was yummy!!!
