I am still working on this, but wanted to show off what I have so far. I just have the pics from Discovery Cove, the pics I took and the pics that a friend took. I am still uploading pics, trying to do a few per day, along with adding titles and such to the pics, and well takes time. Anyways, I will edit this post as I get more albums completed, and the last one, will be the video (I have a ton of that, but still searching for hosting to hold them all).

Enjoy and feel free to comment or ask questions. :)

Just some quick facts about my trip:

Anyways, I pulled this off my new Garmin GPS unit:
Overall speed avg- 49.3mph
Moving speed avg- 55.8mph
top speed-83.2
time moving-57hrs and 5 minutes
stopped time-7 hhrs and 28 minutes
total time-64 hrs and 34 min
total distance travelled 3185.7 miles

That stuff includes the drive down and back, and the 3 trips I made to Orlando, and into town for stuff.

It cost $805 from home to get to my destination in FL. It took $816 to get from my destination to Mt. Pleasent (which is about 80 or so miles from home). The drive home took 27 hours, with 2 stops to get something to eat, otherwise just some gas stops, and that's about it.

Bingo

Nice shots.

That's one of the things I love about Flickr. Batch uploads! Just select the whole damn folder and off it goes!

Those pics are from Discovery Cove, in Orlando, FL.

Here is the link to their site: http://discoverycove.com/default2.aspx

It's a little expensive, but everything is paid in the ticket to get in. Free breakfast, lunch, and best of all, all the beer you can drink, starting at 11am to PM :drink: They have some shops there, where (I think this is a great idea) you get a photo ID badge when you check in, and you can put a credit card on it to purchase souvenirs and such. The other good thing, they only allow 1000 people in per day, so no fighting the massive crowds as I had to at Sea World. :cool:

If you think those are neat, wait till you see some of the vid and other pics I got from Sea World.

I know I haven't uploaded anything new in the last 2 days, had other stuff going and took my "work" time before supper (after supper is gaming time). Which I will need to doing some testing, I went through EVGAs step up program, and have 2 280's on the way, hopefully sometime next week, I can send in my 9800 gtx ssc's and a few days later have em.

Anyways, still searching for where to host the vid, maybe on youtube or something.

Will try to get a clip uploaded tomorrow, 167mb clip going to take a while to upload though.

Just thought I'd let you know that I have some of the vid I took uploaded on youtube. Here are links to what I have uploaded so far:

Putting vid on yourtube takes away a lot of the quality from the original, so I might play around with another site or something. Anyways, enjoy!!

Will put these links in with my original post.
