Family Visit: Feb 1-7
























































Becky, our daughter, and her family came to visit us at Betty's house in Lakeland, FL. Bobby, who is 7 years old, took his first airplane flight to get here. The first day, they went to The Magic Kingdom and watched the Steelers win the SuperBowl that night. Yeah! They went to Kennedy Space Center. They met and spoke with Astronaut John Fabian. That's the Space ShuttleDiscovery on the launch pad. They took a cold day and spent it at WonderWorks. And the last day here they went to an old attraction, Gatorland. Bobby even got to "wrestle" an alligator. The white alligators were new in the last 3 days to Gatorland. Not albino, though. Its a condition called lucism and they have blue eyes. They had a great time at the Vandelinders home and even saw and caught a gecko on the sidewalk. Bobby picked lemons and made fresh squeezed lemonade. Aunt Betty and Uncle Harry had fun teaching us all how to play "Dirty Marbles".
