Day 7

Wow, the show ends today at noon and we need to be out of the wonderful home we rented.  We sent a lot of the extra stuff with the guys, since there wouldn’t be room in the car.

Packed up and off to the hotel to get back in the coach.  Lyric and the girls and I went over to downtown Disney while we waited for everybody to finish.  It was rainy so the vendors we tearing down early.  We were able to get driving towards home earlier than normal.

Back on the road again.  All is well, until looking ahead, it is black.  The rain quickly became a storm and its starting to pour down.   I decided that we shouldn’t drive into it, so I pulled off at the next exit, which just happened to be a rest area.  Thank God!  We put out the sliders and figured we would wait it out.

As I look out the window, what do I see, but the 3 lane highway at a stand still.  I looked on WAZE and saw that there had been an accident, just before the ramp of the rest area to get back on the freeway.  I can tell you, I knew I made the right decision to get off then.

A few minutes later, I checked again and the first accident was still in full action, but now within the next 10 miles, there were 5 more accidents.

By now, I was not going to go anywhere, much to the dismay of others who were pushing us to go forward.  Even if we did go further, the whole area was going to be stormy.  Too bad.  I’m driving, I’m staying.

We made the most of it and enjoyed the rest of the night…
