Florida notes

Just a quick update for this week. Having a great time in Florida with mum and dad. Race training is going well - big day is this Sunday - hope to beat my personal best and run the 13 miles in under 2 hours... We are also luckily here for a planned sapce shuttle launch on Sunday too ...

We visited Andy's old home a few days ago - now sadly a little run down, and Daytona Beach and St. Augustines - a very nice old (1500's) town onthe coast. Also had some fun at Epcot and the rather excellent Animal Kingdom Disney Park that includes a very authentic Nepali village that made us feel a little homesick for Nepal and our friends there. Mistakenly boarded a 'train ride' which was actually a fast and backwards roller coaster - mum was NOT happy!

Today the sun is shining and we're off to go wildlife spotting at a nearby coastal park (Homonossa Spings) where we hope to see wild manatees.

Having a good time.

  1. Good luck on your ½ marathon Andy! My Mom wouldn't have been happy either - my Mom started to cry on the last ride we took her on. Sounds like you guys are having a great time.
