From Looking for America in Orlando, United States on Jul 01 '06

We did it... we made it to sunny Orlando, Florida! Well...okay, maybe not so sunny, but Orlando, nonetheless! The important thing is, we survived Miami. All we can say is: YIKES. Today we went to Homestead (where Jessie was born!), but only stayed long enough to see the FAMOUS Coral Castle (it costs $10 per person...we stood outside and filmed it, instead. Don't worry, we didn't miss anything. Apparently there's not much going on in Homestead. Now that I've been born, anyway.) From there, we headed out to Miami Beach. We saw the historic Art Deco District (very cool!), but when we saw some man in a wedding dress standing in the street dancing for onlookers, we locked the doors and went on to the beach. The water was just right, and it was Ben's first time to swim in the Atlantic Ocean. We had a great time, and it was a well-deserved treat after yesterday's stressors.

Finally, it was time to go on to Orlando. And here we are! This city has been good to us so far...hopefully, tomorrow our Disney World experience will live up to our expectations (again, Ben's first time!).  We'll keep you posted!

Meanwhile, we snuck into a hotel to use their internet, and I think they're starting to get suspicious... better sign off for now. Thanks for following our journey! More soon!

Love,

Ben & Jessie Edwards (still best friends)

Nooo, you were in Orlando and we missed you! I hope you enjoyed the pleasures of my stomping-grounds, and that you didn't get sunburned too badly. Keep on truckin!

I'll bet you've ridden Pirates of the Caribbean a bunch of times now! What's up tomorrow? I heard the space shuttle launch is delayed...you could come home for the RT show with the Plano Symphony...or you could jet off to Seattle/Vancouver for the Salmonchanted Evening festival at the aquarium (fo'real'do!) xoxoxo Mumzee

Hey there Mousketeers! The Space Shuttle launches tomorrow - you should be able to get over to a location where you can view it. (Launch is weather dependent, but keep your radio on!). Hope your day at Dizzyworld is fantastic! xoxoxo Mumzee
