Trip to FLA! 27NOV-05DEC

the day after thansgiving we packed up and headed west to FLA. Crossed the atlantic and arrived in tampa. It was a long flight but well worth it. Dad met us there and stayed with john for 2 weeks. Week one ryan and i were there to share some good times with him. Day one was at Raymond James Stadium for the USF Miami game. we had a great time. A few dinners and quality time later with family and friends it was time to head back east to germany! What a bumpy ride that was over the atlantic.John and Alex make the best crazy eyes. Alex is better though...
at dinner on the last night.
