TGICR day 0 – Orlando

I flew this morning from Boston (a great flight with AirTran, getting in more than half an hour early!), and Joshua picked me up in his MINI, “Balrog” … we grabbed some lunch, then he took me for a quick visit to his local dealership, right in the middle of Orlando – They had a nice calendar of events on the wall, and of course it listed The Great Ice Cream Run … Then we headed to Joshuas house, meeting his wife and two young children – and GPMINI!

After I left Joshuas house (no doubt making the neighbours happy, since we had a quick tour of the corners in GPMINI!), I headed down to Walt Disney World for a maybe-one-chance-ever opportunity to take some pics (a mistake, due to awful traffic both ways on I-4):


So tomorrow, I meet the other TGICR drivers, and head north to Murrays home turf …

Up & Running, finally

Well Site5 have been shite all this week, failing for a few hours Monday, longer Tuesday, and down from midday Thursday till just some time after midnight – in addition their restore (assuming it’s finished), partly broke my web site so some frantic hacking this morning before heading off for the airport …

I really hope it stays working for the next couple of weeks! Otherwise …

Heading out to the airport, more from Florida later today, when I’m re-united with GPMINI (thanks to Joshua!) for the start of The Great Ice Cream Run
