Space Shuttle Launch

Here is a video of the space shuttle launch.

Sunny Orlando, Florida


















In March we decided to go to Orlando for Spring Training for the Atlanta Braves. We had a blast. There is nothing like a little baseball, mixed with a little rain and tornado watches, with a lot of roller coasters and a space shuttle launch to top it all off.
The first night we were there, we went to a Pirate dinner show.  We were all really excited for it.  It ended up being ok.  We were all really tired from our red eye flight that morning.  The next couple of days were filled with baseball and visiting with Aunt Lynn and Uncle Glenn.  We went to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure.  We also went to an AMAZING show called Cirque Du Soleil.  If you ever have a chance to see this show, do it!  
One of coolest things that happened was that we were able to see the space shuttle, Endeavor, launch.  When I say "we" I mean everyone except for me.  I got food poisoning that night and every time I got up to move, it all started again.  I had to sit in the rental van the whole time.  I have to say, I did see a rather large flash of light though.  It was a great trip to get away from the cold weather of Utah and enjoy some much needed r & r.
