Today was Eva’s first flight. She of course is a kid who travels in style so she was in 1st class. I got a complimentary upgrade from U.S. Scare and passed that along to Allison. What I didn’t do was switch Allison’s seat to an aisle so I got stuck in a middle seat. But I am the Dad, that is what Dad’s do. So even though we did not get to sit together I don’t thing that Allison or Eva noticed too much.

Eva was the hit of the plane. Everyone was commenting on how cute she was and how good she was on the flight. On Allison’s second flight she sat next to a couple of college girls who were coming home from Spring Break or some trip. She had heard them comment that they were lucky not to be next to any kids. Then they realized they were in the wrong seats and had to move to the row with Allison. They ended up being very nice and were talking to Eva and playing with her.

I made it to Orlando safely and caught up with members of the team. We went to lunch at Adobe Gila’s and had some tasty food. The decor inside is pretty interesting. It is bar food and they do a decent job with it. We had fun. Then it was off to the supermarket to pick up some things like water and whatnot.

I unpacked completely. Did some blog stuff and I relaxed a bit before we all headed out to Universal Citywalk for dinner. We had reservations for the Hard Rock Cafe for 8:00pm. We got there around 7:00pm, walked around and ended up going to Margaritaville for a little while before heading to the Hard Rock. Dinner was fun with about 12 people. We had a good waiter and the food was tasty.

After that we went and took photos in front of the spinning Universal globe. And then it was back to the hotel.

I am going to be posting a lot to my The BenSpark Utterz blog because Utterz has been a great way for me to quickly post photos to multiple locations with text and audio. I may even post some video if I get any fun things to video.

Here are some other photos from today.
