Orlando BOOM
Orlando, Florida
July 2005

We went to Orlando over July 4th weekend with Hoang’s family, including her brother and his kids. It was hot and Epcot was weak, but we had fun and even spent 12 hours driving to the Florida highpoint and back (in lieu of the Magic Kingdom. We win.) In retrospect, Epcot is the place Americans who will never travel internationally go to act like they’re traveling internationally. Tragic.

Hoang was a couple months pregnant at this point, but no one knew besides me. The funny thing about that is, looking at these pictures now, it’s so easy for me to tell she was a bit poofier than usual. Without further ado:

Our rental house…


… On a street in a neighborhood in a town full of the same exact houses.


The infinite Florida void. Ahhh, greater Orlando.

HiHo, HiHo, It’s off to work they go

Your author, in front of the Canadian waterfall thing. All they have for Canada is an old tourism movie.


True story

Interesting roadkill that we don’t see in Connecticut


Looking at this, I can’t believe her family didn’t call out her pregnancy!

After editing this silly page in 2020, I removed all the pictures of our niece and nephew. That is all.
