Gi and hubs are observing the dolphins. In a brief conversation with hubs, the mommy next to Gi shares that she adopted her young daughter from Vietnam.

The three Ds trekked up to Orlando this weekend for a reunion of some sort. We were able to get together with my sis and bil along with my old college buddy and his three kids. This was also the first time that we took Gi on a trip since coming back from China. The car ride was not tantrum free but hubs and I were equipped with music, toys, books, dvds and, most importantly, grandparents. Gi met Shamu for the first time and got a taste of 52 degree salt water. She also got an eyeful of dolphins, penguins, puffins, stingrays and turtles. Spending two nights in a hotel with a tired hubby and excited toddler brought back many memories of China. Ahhh, it's good to be home again laying in my comfy bed writing this blog. Oh and big thanks to my sis and bil for a most wonderfully delicate watercolor of Gi and a horse mermaid for her.
