US Trip 2009

Adrian and I left the girls and went to the US, mainly to attend a conference in Orlando, Florida and squeezed some vacation time in as well.

Twas a fun, fun trip, highlighted by the road trip we did from Boston, up to Vermont, passing through New Jersey to visit family (and gain poundage with all the food we ate!), then down to Washington DC and Virginia, passing though Charleston South Carolina and finally arriving at Orlando!

This album is just the first leg of our trip...

Our US Trip

Adrian and I just came back from a 3-week, "working-vacation" from the US. Adrian wanted to attend the exhibit and conference on POS Systems in Orlando, Florida and I "tagged-along". We didn't bring the kids as we would have a HARD time taking care of them, in the winter and all, and with the road trip that we did, I cannot imagine being able to do all of that with the kids in tow.

It was a fund trip and for me, it was a different experience. My family usually travels by plane, landing in each city and exploring the city by foot or be local means. May it be subway, train, bus or foot, we traveled that way in the US and in our Europe trips (of course, most US trips had relatives driving or lent their cars for us). Adrian, on the other hand, enjoys the sights by driving, may the places be miles and miles away. And that was how we did our US trip - we probably drove most of the states in the East Coast, from Boston, MA to Vermont and down to Orlando, FL.

We were hardly idle for this trip and I felt a little bitin as we were not able to spend ample time for everything that we wanted to do. But it was a fun, fun trip :)
