この夏、仕事に没頭したいと前々から言っていたテメスゲンを家に置き(畑のお守りも兼ねる)、子供達と3人で元同僚のDr.チャンが住むフロリダ州オーランドへ車で遊びに行ってきた。ホテルが多数並んだデイトナ・ビーチから少し南下。静かな浜辺で子供達と夕方の一時を過ごす。
Leaving Papa Temesgen at home in Auburn, I drove to Orland to visit my friend, a former intern at our clinic, with the Girls (total mileage of the trip: 1122 miles).
Quite a few people asked if I took them to the Micky land - the answer is no. I just thought it would be really nice to enjoy what Orlando can offer without visiting commercialized theme parks. I believe having fun does not have to come with a price tag - it was all about having a good time with good friend over good food (even better!) while appreciating nature. We wished Temesgen had been with us; however, sometimes we gotta do what we gotta do, like people say in America. He would have enjoyed the Science Center though - we need to plan a next visit soon!
Thank you Dr.Chan for great hospitality - We miss you and cats!
