Florida Fun

We got back from Florida yesterday and everyone survived! Owen had a great time and did wonderfully on the plane ride there and back. He was definately better than his mom was! Anyway, we all had a lot of fun and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We went to Sea World, Disney World, Busch Gardens, and Kennedy Space Center.

We went to Sea World on Sunday and it was a little more crowded than the other parks. We were able to do everything we wanted to before the weather started to get bad. Owen saw Shamu and tried to touch the stingrays and dolphins.

Owen met Captain Hook, Mr. Smee, Tigger, Pooh, Pluto, Donald Duck, Goofy and Mickey Mouse at Disney. He loved watching the characters and having his picture taken with them. There weren't very many people at the park when we went, so we were able to do a lot without waiting in long lines. Owen slept through It's a Small World and Peter Pan and was a little scared of Dumbo.

Busch Gardens was a lot better than we expected. We ended up driving to Tampa with Carrie and Joe since everyone else had other plans. There weren't very many rides for Owen, but he was able to pet a giant tortoise and see a lot of other animals. Mike and Joe went on almost all of the rides since there was no one at the park.

Last was Kennedy Space Center. As much as I didn't want to go, it was actually pretty interesting. Mike was in heaven looking at everything. It was a long day, but we all had a good time.
