"Hey, where's the first class
lounge?" wondered Abdul. He goes to the desk to demand first
class treatment. He gets it from Brent, who says, "What a cool
bear!". Hypnotized by Southwest's great customer service, Abdul
returns to his seat, convinced of his first class status. Next

Abdul arrives at the Peabody Hotel in Orlando.
"There's something you don't see everyday" says Abdul as
he looks out his window at what appears to be a duck landing.
Abdul takes a few minutes to unwind as he
contemplates where to go first: Disney World, Universal Studios or
GatorLand. Next

By the time he makes his decision, a monsoon has descended over
Orlando. Next

"This sucks! Damn, damn, damn!" shouts Abdul, who
doesn't take disappointments very well. He goes to bed
and sulks for a while. Finally he remembers that he is in a
four star hotel which probably has a decent bar. Next |
Abdul drowns his sorrows at the bar, ranting to the patrons about
the suckiness of the weather. ("It sucks!", being his
exact words.) But soon he recovers his good nature and begins
helping the bartender, Jason. Well actually, he only wanted to
impress Jason, who turns out to be an infamous filmmaker.
Abdul thinks that Jason's feature film, "Dark
Rose, Vampire Hunter" has all the elements of a great
movie: a scantily clad heroine, werewolves and vampire
babies! Next |

Jason gets rid of Abdul by telling him about the famous Peabody
ducks. Abdul is momentarily distracted during the duck march,
but then he follows them to their pond - the fountain in the hotel
lobby. He is impressed by their red-carpet treatment. Next |

 |
|
The ducks march to their pond every day
at 11am and then return to their Duck Palace at 5pm. Abdul
loves ducks and decides to visit with them for a while.
"Get that kid off the fountain!," said the barmaid before
realizing her mistake. Abdul is insulted and goes to his room
to check the weather. "Surely the storm has passed!"
says Abdul. Next
