Where to start? Hmm well
Where to start? Hmm well Friday night Ali and I did the Teco concession stand thing again. They needed someone to do the cotton candy stand so I volunteered our services. Ugh, I spent 3 hours spinning my right arm around the cotton candy machine. You also get covered in the junk. It was not a good time. I’ll never eat cotton candy again. For all you youngsters considering cotton candy making as your vocation of choice, DON’T!
Saturday we did some house work and Mike came over in the morning to fly our RC planes. Look for pics and videos here. We got some cool aerial shots of our property.
Sunday was our big Disney day. We left at 6 am and didn’t get home till about 10:15 pm. It was a lot of fun. We ran into an unsuspected snag. Evidently Disney has implemented biometrics (finger print scanning) in an effort to stop people from using 4 day passes with a day or two left on them that people buy. Basically when a card is first used they scan the fingerprints of the person using it. Then any subsequent uses they scan again to make sure the fingerprints match. Ali and I saw this and were nervous, of course we failed the scan. However after simply saying that we were the people on the cards they typed in a code and let us through. Even funnier at Epcot, Alison passed the fingerprint scan. 🙂 Evidently they aren’t that accurate so that would explain why it was easy to get in.
We went to Animal Kingdom and Epcot. The parks weren’t packed but full enough. By the end of the day we were both so sick of humanity we could have thrown up. You are inundated with big fat slobs, screamin kids and armies of strollers and wheelchairs. I can’t imagine doing 4 days of park hopping back to back. Regardless it was fun to do something different and we saw all sorts of cool stuff at the parks. The weather was perfect! My favorite things were the free flight bird show, the dinosaur ride, and the safari ride. Look for pics of the trip here. I used our new digital camera for the pics. Great pics and with a 128 meg flash card you can do over 200 pics one one card at the highest res. WOW!
I was off work Monday for Veteran’s Day. (Government jobs rock!) Had a list of about 10 or 11 things I wanted to get done. I did em all. 🙂 Finally got the steering wheel straight on the Buick. I also flew my plane 6 or 7 times.
This week the new Best Buy opens in Naples! I can’t wait to check it out!
5 more half.com orders going out today. I am really surprised at the amount of sales I am getting.
