Trip continued (Day 3, 4 and 5)....

I feel like I've been really busy this week. Actually I know I've been really busy so far this week. Last week was crazy as well and unfortunately I did not have any refueling time in my weekend. Isn't it impressive that I now recognize I need refueling time? This week is looking a bit better now so we'll see......

Day 3 we went to Epcot in Disney World. I felt so lucky that I got to go to Disneyland and Disney World all within a few months of each other. I was still so excited though that you never would have known that I was just around Mickey and the gang :)

Now for those of you that haven't been to Epcot I'll explain it a little bit. It's usually the least favorite among the parks at Disney World, especially if you're a kid. There are some good rides however a big chunk of Epcot is walking around the world in the pavilions. I remember hating it as a kid. This time though we had fun walking around and eating at the different countries. I got some really great gifts and souvenirs from Japan. Oh and of course had to eat in Morocco (see pic below), may be the closest I ever get to Africa!And here is the oh so sad Canada pavilion. Yup you're not seeing wrong...that's Chateau Frontenac from Quebec City. The other landmarks in the Canada pavilion? Oh you know....totem poles! Makes me wonder if the other countries are just as weird as Canada to people from that country even though I think they're neat. However do people from Mexico or Norway think those pavilions are just as pathetic as I think the Canada one is?
Ah the mandatory Mickey crocs.....I bought them for Jason and then just had to have a pair myself!Anyways, again lots more I could have showed you but I don't want to bombard you with too many pics.

The next day my father had to get some things wrapped up before he headed to Canada so Lindsay and I spent the afternoon at a huge mall. We had fun and didn't spend too much if you can believe that. That evening we left and drove to Daytona Beach. We spent the night there and then got up the next morning the head to the beach before we left Florida.

Now again for those of you that have never been to Daytona Beach the reason it's so popular is because you can drive on the beach! Yup you pay 5 bucks and you take your car and park it right on the sand and go swimming. Not like lugging all your junk for a kilometre at Parlee!

The sand at this beach was amazing. It was hard to get off your feet because it was so fine. It felt like brown sugar!
So we left on our adventure back home around mid morning. That day we travelled through Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and stopped to sleep in Virgina. I have some pictures but not a lot. Our plan was to take pictures of all the "Welcome to...." signs. However that didn't work out so well.

Next stop Washington DC!
