Aunt Helen gave us Seaworld tickets in June. In the six months since then, we’ve been there at least four times that we remember. The ability to return again and again makes for a low-pressure situation where we can do just a few hours in the sun and waves, see a couple of shows and ride a few rides. Great fun!

Last Seaworld Visit of 2010
Wednesday, December 29th, 2010AR Drone in Temecula
Tuesday, December 28th, 2010Nic’s big present to the family was this UFO-like flying machine (which I had seen and flown before, see here and here). It’s a complicated, expensive and very fragile machine – but boy is it cool when it works!
Below is the feed from the camera onboard during a flight over the top of our house.
UPDATE: The drone is currently dead. Parrot customer service has quickly responded with an offer to repair. Will update as news comes in.

Tuesday, December 28th, 2010Veronica slept through Christmas morning, so she only saw the Santa presents. We finally got around to opening most of the last presents Monday morning.
Beautiful Temecula
Monday, December 27th, 2010NFL Week 16
Monday, December 27th, 2010We’re so happy that both Indy won and Jacksonville lost. Indy still needs to win against Tennessee at home next week. Don’t get lulled into the idea that this will be easy; any team can beat any other team on any given day.
As to the pool this week, Ashley has won for two of the four different outcomes possible. Gabi wins for one possibility and they split the other one. In short, If Atlanta beats New Orleans tonight, Ashley wins. If New Orleans wins, we need to wait until the Tuesday game. If Minnesota wins that one, Ashley and Gabi split the pool. If Philadelphia wins, Gabi wins.
Much more interesting leading into the Playoffs than last year!
UPDATE: It’s an Ashley/Gabi split win this week. Congrats to both!
