Grand Cypress was a very nice resort. It is a golf and spa resort. The room was a large, clean and a great view of one of the three golf courses designed by Jack Nicklaus. There were several lakes with canoes and paddle boats to ride, with a beach front. The main pool is heated year round, it had a giant water slide, wooden bridge to walk over, caves and caverns to swim through, with a connecting hot tub and a poolside restaurant. Jogging trails, walking trails and bike trails. There several restaurants on the grounds, we ate at the White Horse Bar and Grill. Not sure why they named it that, but there was a statue of a white horse next to our table. I had the special Prime Rib, which was marinated for 10hrs, said the waiter and Donna had the Kobe burger, which she loved. There were free shuttles to all theme parks, if requested, and room service was 24hrs.

Con: Club King Suite room did not have a fridge, it had a pay extra wet bar though. Other rooms were either 1 Bedroom or 2 Bedroom, which had full kitchens, we did not stay in one of those, this time.

Great place, highly recommended. Grand Cypress.

Orlando (Wordsworth Classics)Virginia Woolf's Orlando 'The longest and most charming love letter in literature', playfully constructs the figure of Orlando as the fictional embodiment of Woolf's close friend and lover, Vita Sackville-West. Spanning three centuries, the novel opens as Orlando, a young nobleman in Elizabeth's England, awaits a visit from the Queen and traces his experience with first love as England under James I lies locked in the embrace of the Great Frost. At the midpoint of the novel, Orlando, now an ambassador in Costantinople, awakes to find that he is a woman, and the novel indulges in farce and irony to consider the roles of women in the 18th and 19th centuries. As the novel ends in 1928, a year consonant with full suffrage for women. Orlando, now a wife and mother, stands poised at the brink of a future that holds new hope and promise for women.

Orlando: A Biography (Oxford World's Classics)Virginia Woolf's exuberant 'biography' tells the story of the cross-dressing, sex-changing Orlando who begins life as a young noble in the sixteenth century and moves through numerous historical and geographical worlds to finish as a modern woman writer in the 1920s. The book is in part a happy tribute to the 'life' that her love for Vita Sackville-West had breathed into Virginia Woolf's own day-to-day existence; it is also Woolf's light-hearted and light-handed teasing out of the assumptions that lie behind the normal conventions for writing about a fictional or historical life. In this novel, Virginia Woolf plays loose and fast: Orlando uncovers a literary and sexual revolution overnight.
