Long Days in Orlando


On one day, did a lot at the conference. The last picture in this post of all of us in the park we helped build should be the first. Initially, we all worked at a KaBoom park project for the National League of Cities, making a park for children in an area that didn't have a park. When that was done about 2 p.m. we went to hear the session speaker, New York Times writer, Thomas Friedman, speak about the U.S. being a leader in green technology. Finally, late in the afternoon we went to Disney's Animal Kingdom to go on a couple of rides and have dinner.

On the Safari ride, we got to see plenty of animals up close and personal, like these rhinos. The vehicles that we rode around this huge jungle-brush area are shown below.


Gavin looks a little bit dubious about one of the Disney characters.

So, do you guys ever sit still?

We have everyone coming for Christmas - so we are pretty excited.

Now to figure out where to put them!

Maybe you have some hints?? Since you seem to have lots of experience with large groups!
