Shuttle a no-go

    Dad and I traveled the 961 miles (driving distance, or 823 by the way the crow flies) to Orlando to see the space shuttle launch on December 6th.  Well, after three subsequent delays and one launch re-attempt, it didn't go.  Fuel sensor problems grounded the flight until probably sometime in early January.  However, we still made good use of the time in the 80 degree and sunny weather by going to Disney World for two straight days.  On one of the days we spent time in all four major parks - something I've never done before.  We also got to see the Osborne lights at MGM, which was pretty impressive.  All-in-all, it was a fun trip and one where we got to miss out on some snow back home!
