2001- A Hippo Odyssey
Orlando Florida, October 12-14, 2001

Well, we did it! We actually managed to organize a second annual hippolotofus convention. And what a blast we had! We met in Orlando FL for what we called
"2001 - A Hippo Odyssey"

We had originally expected around 50 of us. But then September 11 happened. And our little get-together was less than one month away. After some heart-wrenching debate, we decided one of the best ways to heal is to get together and celebrate what's right, not fear what's wrong. And what's right is joining with friends from around the planet and having fun. So about 30 of us did!

Here are some scenes from Orlando. It's hard for pictures to convey the fun we had, and the friendships we made. But I'll try :-) Wanna find out for yourself? Then come to our next gathering of the bloat!

Let the show begin....
