Downtown Orlando
Yesterday we decided to go for a drive to seek some different sights and to just get out for a bit. Our drive took us to downtown Orlando where we first grabbed some lunch at a pizza shop. Steve thought it was the same pizza shop he once went before where the Backstreet Boys used to eat, but that since had been closed and a different pizza shop was there. Tyler met a 2 1/2 yr old Spanish boy there and the two had a lot of fun. His mom said he didn't know English, but it didn't seem to matter.
Then Steve took us to go see the Orange Blossom Special! The Orange Blossom Special is the train that used to run through Florida and those of you who may be Johnny Cash fans, might know of the song. Of course, Tyler being a huge fan of trains, just loved seeing the train. It was really neat seeing the train up close. It was huge!
While there, the Amtrak train went by so we got two trains for the price of one! Walking downtown was really nice. Steve took us into some buildings on one of the main streets and a mall that is now closed and is being turned into a fitness centre. We didn't stay long because it was cold out and Tyler has a bit of a cold, so from here we went to check out the outlet stores. Steve bought some much needed running shoes and then it was back to Grandma's house for the night.
