After arriving in Florida, we visited with Linda's ex-sister-in-law, Mary and Mike George. Together, we visited the Wonderful World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida. We rode on two rides, the "Forbidden Journey" (Quidditch Match) and the "Flight of the Hippogriff." We shopped in Honeydukes Candy Shop and drank butterbeers at the Hogs Head Pub.

Transatlantic Cruise, October, 2010
We traveled from Dover, England, to Port Canaveral, Florida on a 12 day Transatlantic Cruise aboard the Norwegian Sun. We stopped in Lisbon, Portugal and visited the Sintra Castle. Hurricane Otto prevented us from stopping at the Azores but the sea days were very relaxing and the ship was quite comfortable.
Our car in Ireland, September, 2010
The roads in Ireland are very narrow. On this particular road, we were so close to the fence on either side that we could almost reach out and touch them. In fact, our rental car got scratched by bushes growing along side of the road several times. All the cars are very small....and that's a good thing.

Banff and the Rocky Mountains
Here we are in our campsite just outside of the city of Banff in Alberta, Canada. We'll be exploring Banff, Lake Louise and Canmore from here. The campground at 4600 feet is surrounded by mountain peaks like the ones in the background. Weather is in the 70's and sunny during the day and low 50's at night. Have seen lots of wildlife and fields of wild flowers. We're up to 5000 miles and counting so far just on this trip.

Kenora, Ontario on driving trip
One of the nicest campgrounds we found by accident. We went to the campground that we thought we would stay at and it was full. He referred us to a city campground nearby which had a beautiful view looking out over a lake. Here are Gail and John sitting at a picnic table watching the boats move around on the lake.
