DIS Dads DDC XVIII - Spring Fever!

[cj9200]

Downloaded a few pictures from the trip. Since I didn't dive much and the conditions were not great, no "wow" pics. Here are a few that are OK.

Christ of the Abyss. There are two other similar statutes; the famous one in Brazil and one off the coast of Italy.

The German

And the Brit

May post a few more after downloading them.

High 40's huh? You know what we call that up here?

Nice pictures!

Anytime the ice is thin enough to break a hole through is swimming weather.

Morning gents.

Just checking in, live from OKW. Going to be a slower pace today as we hit the pool and DTD. Been a GREAT week so far and I have officially completed the transformation of all three DDs to Thrill Junkies.

DD5 is finally 48" tall and that is enough to ride just about everything. Yesterday, she took on Star Tours twice, ToT twice, and RNRC three times and wanted more.

Hope everyone else is having a good week and all is well.

Congrats on the conversion! Sounds like you ARE having a lot of fun down there

We really are. So much so that I really haven't posted very many pics on the face place. Having too much fun to remember to share. I love watching along with everyone's Disney vacations, and when I take one, the pics come up short.

I'll try to do better.

More pics or we're cutting you off from our TR's...

It's probably more likely from the mulitple days, hours etc. from training with the Mark 18 (the "short" M16 in all my Iraq pictures). It's significantly louder than "standard" length M4's. They *just*, as in the last month, started restricting the number of rounds/hours you can train on the system due to the volume. No such restriction existed when I was training/operating.



High 40s....and that's criminal for this time of year

Ahhh.. the good ol' days of unrestricted abuse. Possible disability in your future, eh?

Hey guys...greetings from the WFH (Week from hell), lol!

Crazy week with work and family...but at least it's the 30 day mark till we get to WDW...now I just have to survive my oldest DS graduating from college in 2 and a half weeks...

I need a Dole Whip and some bacon, lol!!

Will

Yeah... sounds like you need a tall drink... Good luck on the graduation!

To steal some terminology that Barry used, the eviction date is set for Friday.

We're supposed to go in tomorrow evening and then they'll induce Friday morning.

Would love to having the child graduating from college in 2 weeks. Will happen sometime in 2016.

Today I am officially the father of a 10 Year Old!!!



Happy Birthday Bayley!

Happy B-Day Bayley. Your first decade is in the books.

I'm trying to catch up a little bit. I'm glad the heart thing wasn't something serious.

Hey Ryan. Still doing the 10 miler in May? I will be there the 5th for 5 days. Paul, you running? Anyone else? I won't be running but maybe a meet up.

Hoping that it goes quickly. Thoughts and prayers for the mother to be and the little princess.

Not in May. I will be down for a conference though... I'm running the Tower of Terror 10 miler in Sept, and planning on the Marathon again next year.

Patrick - Good to hear our Turkey is being cured.

I'll take any conditions that allow me to be under water.

Yeah DS and I are running expedition everest. I think we'll be there May 4th-7th staying at AKL.

We'll be back in September but I think it's the week before the Tower of Terror 10K. I think we'll also be back in early October for a long weekend and then again in January for the Marathon. Let me know if your going to be up there in May.

I can't believe this how fast 2013 is booking up. Goofy's already 55+% full. Hope to see you down there again this year. I think we'll be at the contemporary next year so there shouldn't be any bus issues.

Did a half marathon in the pouring rain this weekend. Sometimes being underwater is not so pleasant.

 

[Emma's Dad]

[whining] Man... I'm looking at the forecast for WDW this week and I am totally jealous of Mike. We would be there right now if we were on our normally scheduled vacation Lows in the 60's... highs in the 80's and SUN SUN SUN!

Good to hear from you again Ryan

Best wishes for the eviction. Hope you don't need the sheriff involved.

You got that right.

 

[Disneyferris]

Just under two months to go. Time is dragging. DD's don't know yet maybe June first so DD (9) now can save her B-day money from the 3rd. We are soft packing, and I have found some new LED toys for DD's for the parades. We have also found some cheap glow sticks that we pass out to kids around us at fireworks. We started this a few trips ago and have had good responses. It helpes my girls to be outgoing and we have fun talking to the parents. We saw that Someone had done this on lines and thought we would try it. Some parents on the dis group said they have gotten some bad responses but we have never had anything but Disney vibes from doing it

 

[Disneyferris]

Buler?

 

[Disneyferris]

Oh great now I am talking to myself.

 

[Disneyferris]

And answering.
