Florida: Aldrich Family Vacation- Part 2

Wednesday, December 28, 2011
One of our family activities in Orlando was the obligatory theme park. We chose to go to Disney's Epcot for a day. The last time I went to Disney World I was 12 years old. It's amazing how different things look a lotta years later. One of my favorite attractions was the night time Epcot light show/fireworks, just like I had remembered. However, Disney "Italy" didn't have quite the same feel after having visited Italy. Oh well, we got to witness a proposal while we were having a glass of wine in "Italy". Good fun.




In "China" there was an awesome acrobatic show. Look at all the glasses she's balancing!

Epcot Tequila shot for the Mom.

The Huebel's sent an AMAZING pecan pie to us in Florida. It's honestly the best pecan pie filling any of us had ever had. You can get one too... HERE.

We went to Universal Studio's City Center to have drinks at Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville, followed by dinner at Emeril Lagasse's Emeril restaurant.

We all ordered a different flavor margarita.

The boys. Of course Dad has a fruity variety.

Momma.

Fried Green Tomatoes topped with shrimp. (so good)

Calamari with a twist.

Fresh Burrata cheese. 

Jeff's Andouille Crusted Redfish.

Ross's Lamb shank.

Dad's pan seared sea scallops.

Mom's Kurobuta Pork Chop.

My Seafood Ciopinno, chock full of shrimp and scallops!

We also went to Universal's Islands of Adventure theme park, but I didn't take any pictures. We liked Universal more than Epcot, mostly because overall the rides were more thrilling. Our favorite rides were the Hulk roller coaster (scary!), the new Harry Potter ride (really well done), and spider man (3D).

Great trip to Florida!
