DIS Dads DDC XXVII: Penguins in Paradise!

[Wherem I Now]

Same to you Duck,

Can't sleep so am watching the Dream pull into Port Canaveral.

All lit up at night, I can't help but to think of a Jiminy Cricket quote. "Pretty, huh?"

I must also point out that there are two Dream Boats sitting next to each other...

Disney Morning David and Mike!!

Where are you guys watching the Dream pull into port? Is there a feed or something that I can catch a Disney Buzz off of?

Finally got out and ran last night, 2 miles in just under 20 minutes. Not great, but its my first run in a few weeks so I will take what I can get.

I have a phone in meeting at 3 this afternoon, and I'm thinking of leaving early and calling in from home. I dont fancy an added 30-45 minutes added to my 50 minute drive.

Matt

HAHAHa

I was watching the feed and wondering how they were getting the webcam to pan around. Then I realized that one of the cruise ships was underway!

What a maroon.

Thanks Mike for the link!

Don't worry Matt it was early in the morning.


Thay being said the camera does move. It is located at Fishlips and the do pan and zoom it when the ships are leaving. Not sure if they do it when the ships arrive or not.

Opening day of the tournament, good luck with your brackets (unless you are in the pool and tehn I hope your crash and burn in the opening round).

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

No, no, no. The sitting by the pool, cocktail in hand, enjoying 80 degree weather CJ.

Have a great time in Hawaii. You'd better leave it in good shape for me, though.

Thanks for the well wishes guys. My neck is still a little stiff. I'm going to try and get into the bone cracker tomorrow. But I've switched from Vicodin to Advil.

Just before it happened I was thinking "Only 5 miles to home." This was on a wide open stretch of road that had snow blowing across it all day. I hit a bad patch and couldn't recover.

Just catching up and saw your story. I'm really glad you're ok. Vehicles are more replaceable than people.

16 hours at Epcot. That's enough time to ride Ellen's Energy Adventure like 3 times.

Having not watched a single minute of college basketball all year, I don't think you have anything to fear from me. I chose Indiana to win it all. My justification is that they had a "1" next to their name.

I haven't watched much either but I did spend about 30 minutes filling out my bracket. I figure that should balance it out.

 

[AirGoofy]

Could have been a lot worse. I was doing about 30 when it happened. A gust of wind pushed me onto a bare ice patch and I couldn't recover.

Have you bought a lottery ticket yet? Maybe you have a little bit of that luck leftover.

Haven't had a chance to read through the boards over the past 2 days. I'll get caught up in a bit. My being under the weather transformed into a day off work(Monday), an attempt to go to work with me coming home before noon b\c my daughter was sick (Tuesday), to me working from home and then fetching my daughter from school after she had a fever at lunch (today). Now no school tomorrow for her b\c she has to be fever free for 24 hours. At least DW is off tomorrow so I can escape this black plague that is in my house!

Yuck. Prayers for a quick recovery for everyone.

Quick sports update (notice I said quick, not timely...)
@Norm - Robert Morris beat Kentucky in the first round of NIT.

Yes, the whole state is still in mourning.

Can't sleep so am watching the Dream pull into Port Canaveral.

That would be nice. I haven't check that out in awhile.

It took you that long?

 

[RodBelding]

Morning guys. Looking forward to some good hoops throughout the weekend. Hope everyone's off to a good day.

I was at work, people kept bothering me.

‘Morning all…
Got to spend a half a day away from the misery of work and then got to listen to our kids perform is the state concert band competition.
They did very well on top of that.
First time in months that my afternoon did not $&(%...


but then the alarm went off this morning and it all went back to the way it was.
Oy…

Don’t have to worry about me on that account. I tried to join in yesterday but Yahoo first wanted me to “reactivate” an account that I’m pretty sure I never had and then came back and said I had to wait 24 hours before I could login… It’s about there that I gave it up. I’m in a couple of local pools, though, so there’s still a reason to follow along (other then the excitement of the games that is )

I've never been much of a basketball fan, but I do enjoy watching the tournament. It is a great sports event.

Confirmed my reservations for Tusker house breakfast on 8/23. at 8:30am Whooo hoo.
We are not planning any sit down meals for most of our park days but since it's gonna be my birthday meal and we will get into the park before rope drop DW said ok.
DW wants to do the Luau at the Poly, is it worth the cost? They do have bottomless beer so we will need a cab too if we do it. lol.

Hey, we just happen to have an 8:20 breakfast reservation on 8/23 at..........wait for it..........wait for it.........Yup......The Tusker House! I hope you are OK with me looking for the birthday boy and presenting you with a happy birthday in person.

Had to check....I have an 8am ressie at Tusker......on the 25th! I'll just be fashionably late.

Somehow, I missed that ride our first 7 trips to WDW. It would have been a great place to nap with the dds when they were younger.

Never been on it yet....maybe this time we'll give it a go..

The Dino section of it is one of the few “original” bits of Epcot left. If you want to get off your feet and into the air-conditioning for about twenty minutes, it’s a decent place to take a break; wouldn’t go out of my way for it for any reason though.

Happy start to the NCAA Tournament Day

T-minus 100 minutes or so. I love this tournament. I always want to take a couple vacation days to sit around and watch all day but they are just too precious to burn like that. I get an extra week starting next year to bring me up to 4 total so it may be doable soon. Between all the brackets I've filled out I surely picked the winner in one of them.

Is it wrong that I always secretly wish I'd get sick this week? You know, just so I could do that and not feel like I'm just totally wasting a day.

2 computers on my desk - 1 for work and 1 for live streams.

I've got a 46" LCD hanging on a wall across the office. I have to turn my chair around to see it, but it does the trick.

Now if I could just unplug my phone and turn the computer off so I wouldn't have to turn my back to the TV and return my attention to my desk for any work related interferences.
