Baltimore
We are changing planes in Baltimore, not because there were no direct flights but because going through Baltimore will get us to Orlando, 2 hours earlier. we need to go to bed really early tonight as we will be inside Magic Kingdom tomorrow by 7:30 AM.
We will be boarding our plane to BWI in about 30 minutes.

I love 3pm flights
Arrived at airport at 12:28pm. No line for security. No line to buy lunch. Barely any people anywhere.
From the border to getting through TSA took less than 45 minutes.

On our way
We left home on time at 10:30 AM. Crossed the border at 11:57 AM in Lewiston. There was no wait. We stopped at the stop sign and basically rolled right up to the agent.

Spur-of-the-moment Disney Trip
I stumbled across a Southwest sale and ended up with 2 round trip tickets to Orlando for under $500 CAD.
We weren’t sure we were going to go to Disney World when we booked the flights but it was an option we were considering.

4 hours later
Harry was without his glasses for about four hours. Leanne took him to get not one new pair but two new pairs for 160 USD. (Edit: It would have been 199 USD for a single pair but with the back-to-school special it was actually cheaper to buy two pairs! LC)
Harry and Leanne had a nice time drinking expensive coffee and sharing a muffin while they waited for the new glasses, which were ready in 52 minutes. (Edit: We went to Panera Bread, which was right next to the Eyemart Express, and both the cranberry muffin and the dark roast coffee were delicious! LC)
I got to work and Daisy and Magnolia got to watch Poppy

Morning at the beach
We spent the morning at the beach. The ocean was so warm that Harry and I spent quite a while, bobbing up and down on the waves. Then a slightly large wave crashed over our heads and stole Harry’s glasses.
