January 2, Hotel change

January 2nd is here and in honor of that I am using a new font. How can you tell that I am becoming a computer geek? We went for dinner last night at our friends Nick and Amy's for a meal of wonderful Buddy Burgers. They have a son the same age as Jack (David), and they had lots to talk about. David is one of about 25 kids his age in Orlando that plays hockey, so he welcomed other kids that play as well. Here the boys are playing on David's new Wii console and doing very well. It was a fun evening and the hospitality was wonderful. (We have to be nice because we are mooching a night or two at their place.

We moved into the Omni at Championsgate just east of Orlando today. It's another beautiful hotel. Angie signed up for a select group membership a few month's ago and it paid off with a free upgrade to a room on the top floor with a balcony. The Presidential Suite is right across the hall. I'm sure the only reason we didn't get that room was because of some of my disparaging comments in earlier posts. Here is a picture of Gus and Jack shooting some hoops in the drizzle. That hope of a couple of basketball scholarships may be a little premature.

Gus's Best: Seeing his friend David and playing the Wii.

Gus's Worst: His feet hurt.

Jack's Best: Going to Davids.

Jack's Worst: Leaving Davids.


We will be spending Friday night at Davids, so that should cheer them up.

It's BUBBA burgers. How do expect to get rewarded for mentioning products if you mess up the brand name?? Glad Jack & Gus rated the visit to David's highly. I hate getting bad reviews. See you Friday!

David's place looked swell, I even saw a puppy in the pic. What was the dog's name? Just to make you miss Manitoba weather more, this afternoon it started to rain so on top of the yet to be plowed streets we now have a coating of ice.Makes driving all the more special. I think they closed parts of the Perimeter Hwy. We watched Yzerman's tribute not a dry eye in the house. Tomorrow's supposed to be 3 above guess I'll get my sandals out.
