Back to Orlando
Monday was our last day in Florida. We got up early and checked out and drove to Orlando. Ryan didn't know what was on the agenda today until we arrived in Orlando. Kristy surprised him with a wake boarding session with pro rider Shaun O'Brien (Orlando is the wake board capital of the world) . The wind was bad which made the lake fairly choppy, but the water was warm 80F (25C).
Kristy didn't many shots of Ryan wake boarding - sorry this is the best one there is (by the way, that's Ryan upside down on the left hand side)
Next up was an Alligator park, just a few minutes down the road from where Ryan was wake boarding (apparently alligators are in every lake in Florida, you just see more in some. Ryan thought he saw a fish when he was wake boarding, but now he's not so sure it was a fish..!) The Alligator park had about 10,000 acres of water with over 30,000 alligators infesting it! We couldn't stay long, but we managed to see a couple swimming in the lake, and some that were in cages.

This alligator had just caught his lunch!
The last surprise of the day was Daytona race track. We only had about 15 minutes, so we went out to the track and had a quick look around.

Daytona Beach. If you look closely, you can see there are cable cars going over the beach
We had an awesome weekend, once again it was full on - we drove over 1200 miles the entire weekend!

You guys seem even busier than we were! How cool is Miami Beach?! Did you see any Cubans with the baywatch bikinis on? they are hilarious! Wish we had made it out to the keys looks beautiful.... Keep the blogs coming, we're so jealous!
Miami Beach was awesome - wish we had more time though. There were lots of boys in their tighty whitey's (i got a photo of them too - will have to show you - its a good shot)!! I think it was the gay community though! :)
