I took Caroline and Andrew to Florida for the launch of Space Shuttle Discovery and the trip was an amazing success. Here are a very few of the 1750 photos I took while in Florida. We flew into Orlando on Friday, watched the launch in the pre-dawn hours on Monday, did a quick trip to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, went to the beach in Juno Beach, drove to Key West and spent the day in the Florida Keys, and finally spent some time in Everglades National Park. I drove 1,675 miles in a rental car with the two children and we had a wonderful time. Here are just a few photo highlights. I hope to get more photos posted soon.
