The First Clue

December 12, 2018 Proposal Story

Cherie knew that we were going on a trip to Orlando. I had scored a heavily discounted vacation by agreeing to a 2 hour Hilton timeshare presentation. Our trip plans included Disney, Disney, Harry Potter, and more Disney. Cherie had her list of things to do, places to see, rides to take, lines to stand in, and characters to photo-op. We landed, checked in to the hotel, and headed to Mickey’s Christmas party. Cherie had the Christmas party experience planned out to maximize entertainment, shows, and rides.

 

As far as Cherie knew, this was going to be a “normal” theme-park vacation. She had no idea that I’d prepared something extra. 

She woke up the first morning of the trip and discovered that a note had been slipped under the door.  It was full of hints and foreshadowing.

The game was afoot.
