Orlando Vacation - January 3-6, 2007

The family headed to Orlando for four days at the Universal Studios Resort, the Portofino Bay Hotel for Sara's work conference. Jeff had his work cut out for him watching Helena (walking almost 20 miles over two days) but as the pictures below show, he kept Helena busy seeing the sites around the resort and Universal Studios City Walk.
