February 2008 Florida


Bill, Carol & Pam Dixon along with Tammy, Ken, Isabella, Jackie & Jerry Gallahan spent a week in Florida. Stayed in a condo in Daytona Beach, with lots of side trips, sun and fun!!


Our condo and view--Tammy & Isabella in the pool!


Jackie's first step in the ocean--it was cold!




Fresh oranges on the tree in Stuart and Tina Lichty's yard!









We enjoyed visiting the Ormond Beach site of the first beach speed trials and the actual race track of the Daytona 500.












Epcot Center was our spot to visit on Wednesday. Jackie & Carol rented electric scooters to that they could cover the ground and keep up with everyone.



















Thursday we drove "On the beach"! then to the lighthouse at Ponce Inlet--where we got to see the space shuttle launch--WOW--a once in a lifetime experience!!












Friday, we returned to Orlando to visit Magic Kingdom.





















One of the things we enjoyed about our stay was all of the different birds: seagulls, terns and sandpipers on the beach, pelicans floating over us, the pigeon who came to share breakfast, ibis, curlew, cranes, storks and herons----all were enjoyed.




We ended our stay with the beautiful colored lights on the castle. Enjoy the slide show as you scan through them.
