Mount Dora, transport.


Folk just went about their business, tourists did the same, it was a hot December day (about 80deg).

Visiting Mount Dora

This is more of a tradition old-fashioned town, buildings are less than 4 mostly. A goodplace for a nose around

America, December 2007 - January 2008

Visited Gwen and Keith, over Xmas/New year - they live in Florida and we had a great old time visiting the regular tourist places and some natural places that more local folk visit.

Saw the Manitees and had some BBQs and Keither organised a flight in a lightship which was special.

We flew over a lot of the tourist places in the Orlando area and experienced the odd sensation inside the pod that seems to have two 10 foot high air-dryers which steer and power it. These are the things that fly and advertise over events - even carrying live video from the black area on the side (in the photo).



This is inside, I was at the back - we flew out of Orlando business airport - or at least a field next to it that the company rents for these purposes.

2007 IOTA ham radio contest
I'm waiting for the start - operating the SSB, low power, all band, single operator section

Islands On The Air contest is quite a good one to do, there's a lot of stations who go to some rare places just for this.
