3/4 of our family did not enjoy this ride...

Hint: back row.

"A unique thrill ride located within DinoLand U.S.A. at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park, DINOSAUR allows you to travel back in time 65 million years and come face to face with a variety of menacing prehistoric creatures!"

 

Spent most of the day at Animal Kingdom...  Part theme park and part zoo with lots of real animals (unless Disney has pooping animatronics now).  The kids enjoyed the Lion King show and the Kilimanjaro Safari.  

 

After the day in the park, we drove about an hour east to Cape Canaveral.  The Delta IV rocket was originally set to lift off on the 2nd, but mechanical delays had postponed the launch to today.  Because of too much wind up in the jet-stream it looked like the launch might again be delayed,  but shortly before the one hour launch window closed the countdown resumed.  The sight and sound was awesome as it lifted off, even from miles away.  I shot some great footage on the high-def camera, but have no way to get it from the camera to the computer while on vacation.  For now, here's video from the mini-cam.

There is now a picture link at the top of the page.
