DIS Dads DDC XXVIII: Stormin’ The Castle Since 2007!

[wasnotafan]

Plans are coming along nicely for the 13th Anniversary trip in August. Shirts arrived the other day. I had two different ones made up. DW and I have maroon shirts (to match the maroon of the Tower of Terror Cast Member costumes):

I also had some printed up for the kids:

The kids are stuck with white shirts, because I couldn't find a place that had maroon shirts in an 18 month size. Besides, it's Florida in August. i'm sure the kids would much rather be in white.

Excellent! Though you wouldn't get me on it once.

Just got DS grades today. Honor roll for the third and final trimester. Meaning he was there from start to finish. He worked really hard this year and really deserves the honor.

And yes CJ......He gets that from his mother.

The Pirate Princess's Throne. At the last stop before Paris, a guy did have the seat next to her so she lost her extra space. Nice guy but he reeked of cologne. It dissipated after a while.


The hotel is much nicer than I expected. They advertised a view of the Seine or the Eiffel Tower and they were not kidding. The view from our room.


Multiple restaurants, fitness room and indoor pool. Plus we are about a 1/4 mile from Tower. We had lunch at a Bistro and are planning on taking a cruise down the Seine tonight. Not for the first time on this trip and probably not the last that I say, My life does not suck.

Safe travels. And thanks for the reminder that Daddy/Daughter time is special.

Awesome shirts, Barry!

They predicted an hour delay. They later came over the PA and said because of demonstrations ON THE TRACK we would arrive 10 minutes late.

Playing chicken with a train is never a good idea. I bet that was an easy picket line to cross.


Looks like an amazing trip CJ. Enjoy Paris!

My weekend starts in about 2 hours. Then not back to work until Tuesday. Of course it looks like rain for the weekend. I'm not sure why I expected anything else. I think the kids started collecting 2 of each animal.

Do you get another long weekend the weekend after?We get one for Canada Day, I can only imagine you getone for July 4

Seriously, how dumb do you have to be to pull that one off? I'll leave the keys to my rental in his pocket, damage, but not destroy the tapes and hang out at home until someone figures it out. Oh, and I'll take a picture of me with the gun when I'm done.

And now there's the 2012 double-murder they're trying to tie him to. I'm starting to think he's not a nice guy and probably not disdad material.

Brent, do you guys have zoo passes??

Sitting in doctors office for the last hour waiting to actually see the doctor. I digress and I'm whining... but at least there's wifi and I have my ipad!

An hour wait? I usually tell my kids to go play loudly in front of the receptionist. Our wait times are short. Enjoy the iPad time.

Arrived in Paris despite an email from the rail service that there was a strike today. They predicted an hour delay. They later came over the PA and said because of demonstrations ON THE TRACK we would arrive 10 minutes late. They were pretty much right on the 10 minutes.

Multiple restaurants, fitness room and indoor pool. Plus we are about a 1/4 mile from Tower. We had lunch at a Bistro and are planning on taking a cruise down the Seine tonight. Not for the first time on this trip and probably not the last that I say, My life does not suck.

Sounds like a great trip. Enjoying the pictures.

Enjy the weekend. It looks you'll have plenty of time to plan your next murder.

I wish it was that easy, this honey do list, I will call Hunters Birthday, I have till July 29th to get it done, so far the tree & the grille are complete, with the list in my hand these are some of the things I have less then a month to complete

- put up cabana
- put together patio set
- clean and get waterfall fountain going
- powerwash house
- move and secure swing set
- paint livingroom
- trim bushes
- fix any outside lights that are out and install motion sensor floods
- clean garage
- clean man cave
- fix bathroom in mancave (sure send everyone through the man cave to use the bathroom)
-paint lightpost
- sweep or power wash driveway (it's not that big only 8 cars)

This year his party is The Game Truck, that will be parked in the driveway, there are 22 kids coming + parents, she gave me the list a little over a week ago, but with work, and a VA trip before the deadline it's going to be tough one to pull off

His REAL Birthday is during our WDW trip

After typing that list, I would have needed 6 months off - at least. Birthday party sounds fun. We do them outside of the home now so that we can leave at a certain time.

In the office today. Too wet for field work. At least it will give me a chance to try to come up with something for a potluck wedding on Saturday. I've never been to a potluck wedding before so I have no idea what to take.

Sounds like a great idea. A good way to save money. I'll keep that in mind for my future dds weddings, if they are allowed to marry.

Cool shirts. Will there be a live Barry cam web feed?

 

[declansdad]

Cool shirts Barry!

Excellent view CJ! You sure have it rough.

Thought you guys had no wait times.

Seriously, nothing serious I hope.

If my DD was going to be allowed to marry I would encourage her to elope. Even more $$ saved.

Thankfully mine will be off to the convent as soon as I can find one to take a non-Catholic.

Welcome back! Just the usual profound statements and solving of the vast questions of life, universe, and everything. and bacon.

 

[IndyDisney]

Did we solve the Aaron Hernandez thing yet?

I think that it was a well orchestrated plan by Tim Tebow to secure a starting Tight End job in New England. Just a hunch...

Try not to be too shocked; but you haven't missed much...

Good to see you around these parts though Dave!

I miss these parts. It was a pretty junky 2012 and a whirlwind of craziness (but good craziness) so far in 2013......Finally got time to relax and catch up on things.

Cheers,

Brent, do you guys have zoo passes??

Always do...I think they are good till October. Haven't been using them much though, time is not on our side. Hopefully this summer, want to see the Pandas
