No time for Mickey as I visit Molly in Orlando, Florida

I recently travelled to Orlando Florida to visit Molly. That’s not a misprint; I did say Molly, not Mickey. I’m currently here on a three-week housesit, until early January. Ironically, I’ve never been to Disney World but I’m not one to enjoy rides so I doubt I ever will. Mickey is sure to have many other visitors this holiday season so my absence won’t be missed.

I’m in the downtown area of Orlando, in what is described by the City of Orlando as a ‘trendy and friendly neighbourhood’. I can certainly attest to the friendliness of passersby. Having recently finished a sit in Los Angeles, the warmth and friendliness of people here is a surprising and welcome change.

Discovering my final retirement home

Those of you who follow my blog may remember a post I did three months ago, while on a house sit in Mexico. It dealt with pondering over my final resting place – of where and/or how I might be buried. At that time, I came to the conclusion that I would leave it to others to decide. However, just this week I came across an option that seems to be a good fit for me.
