The Orchestra, at Epcot

Posted on April 27, 2013February 18, 2017 by Ian C.

Tonights visit to Epcot entertained us with a half hour performance from The Orchestra, a group playing ELO music, and including two original ELO band members – Louis Clark and Mik Kaminski!
They performed a number of ELO hits, including (of course) Mr Blue Sky and Telephone Line; with Mik’s blue violin playing, they sounded pretty good still …

Lake Louisa State Park

Posted on April 22, 2013February 18, 2017 by Ian C.

This afternoon we took a short trip to nearby Lake Louisa State Park, peaceful and full of trees and wildlife! There’s a few areas in the park, and multiple lakes; natures trails, forested scrubland; we even saw three wild deer – too far to photograph, but clear and not much bothered by us. But the Gopher Tortoise was close enough:

At Lake Louisa, we walked on the sandy “beach” and in the water, which was a very red/brown color …

I also took some video of the Gopher Tortoise, who was quite keen to get away from us:
