6 January 2012: Orlando, Florida

Up and atom! We got up somewhat early and went to the race expo at Disney's Wide World of Sports. You can read about the expo, and our search for some good merchandise, over at my triathlon blog. After picking up all of our stuff, we headed back to our resort for a bit and then went to Downtown Disney in search of a somewhat light lunch. We ended up at Raglan Road Irish Pub, with a website here and a TripAdvisor page here, where we sat outside and enjoyed the perfectly sunny and warm weather. I ended up with a salad with grilled chicken and a Guinness while Cindy had some salmon and a hard cider, which was delicious.

After eating and walking around a bit, we headed back to our resort and did some work preparing for the next day's half marathon. We picked up the bus and made our way to our dinner location, the Yachtsman Steakhouse (their webpage is here and TripAdvisor page is here) in Disney's Yacht Club. This is the resort we usually stay at while down at Disney, so we know it well. This steakhouse is always wonderful and this stop was no exception. I ended up with a NY Strip Steak and Cin got a filet, both of which were delicious. We had excellent service from our waiter and an overall excellent experience. Filled with delicious and healthy protein, we headed back to our resort and went to bed early...not looking forward to our 3am wakeup for the half marathon.
