I didn't take many pictures at the NBAA show. I liked the Bell Tilt rotor though.

That's the galley that was made for the show. The finish is incredible on it. The woods real cool. I wish I would have taken some closer pictures of it.

I was staying in the Walt Disney World Port Orleans Hotel. The world of lines, walking and waiting. Oh, and being tripped up by strollers and children lead out in front of you. The place was nice enough, but I just couldn't enjoy it with all the annoying people.

A high-point of the trip. Food naturally. I hook up with Butch and Beth and we go to a restaurant called Fish Bones. This is sushi grade tuna, seered so it's just cooked on the outside and warm and rare on the inside. Then it's rolled in sesame seeds and cracked pepper. MMMMmmmm. Delicious!!!

Henry is tall now. He's in first grade, is into scouts, soccer and keeping Butch and Beth very busy. Beth is enjoying work, is happy with the humidity and loves Florida. Butch still has his dream job and is playing in two bands (was playing with three bands at one point).

There's a canal system wandering around Disney Port Orleans that leads to Downtown Disney. So, I rent a pontoon boat and go for a quick spin around the canal.

Plenty of bridges to float under. A couple of them are narrow enough that you have to wait for oncoming boats to pass through.

Not sure which disney hotel this is, but it's really cool.

After the pontoon boat ride, I rode bus back down to Downtown Disney to have some Dinner at this place. Fultons. I had some more seered tuna that was OK and some pretty good Lobster and Crab Bisque.

Took a long exposure shot from the dinner table at fultons of the place across the lake. Had to rest the camera on a bowl and a couple plates to keep it stable. Turned out pretty good if you ignore the table and railing in the shot.
