A Vacation At Pop's

So, I've had a great week visiting with Pop here in central Florida. We've done tons of stuff, I've slept in almost every day and I've been stuffing myself with great food.

Tuesday pop fixed a french toast breakfast and then we headed out to Wild Willy's Airboat Rides. That was an great afternoon. We flew around this lake with a guy named Captain Pete. We saw alligators, endangered birds, cranes, snails and even a bald eagle. After the boat ride we even got hold an actual alligator...super cool. Tuesday night we filled our guts at Texas de Brazil, a Brazilian steakhouse in Orlando. There was meat as far as the eye could see., a carnivores dream.

Wednesday was the easy day. Pop had to go to a meeting in Tampa and so I spent the morning playing Wii and watching the Today show. I went for a short run and then spent a long time in the pool paying with my Kodak Playsport Camera. Maura, my step-mom, and I went and saw Prince of Persia. It was awesome, highly recommend. Chili's for dinner and the easy day was finished off with an at home screening of Transformers 2.

Today, Thursday, we spent the day at The Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, FL. I had a great time walking around and seeing all of the space stuff and spending the day with Pop. The two IMAX movies that we saw, one about the moon missions and the other about the Hubbel telecope, were both awesome and 3-D so double awesome.
I'm heading home tomorrow and it's a bummer to see vacation to come to an end but it's more of a bummer to go back home and not see Pop again for a couple of months. I've had a great time Pop, thanks for a great vacation.
