Saturday downloaded and installed Adobe Flash CS3 demo software. Good for 30 days. Played with it just a touch in anticipation of Tuesday Flash workshop.
Monday
Travel day. Bozeman to Denver, nice. Fantastic view of MSU on the way out. Looked down on Reid Hall at 1:30 and thought of you all.
Denver to Orlando, traveled with the colicky baby convention, I believe. The movie was Wall-e. Audio in English unavailable due to technical error. Wall-e works pretty well with no audio.
Airport in Orlando undergoing renovation. At 9:30 p.m. contractors way outnumbered passengers.
Mears Shuttle Service from airport to hotel very efficient and friendly. HIghly recommended. Three passengers. Me, Mike also going to AECT, and a fellow going to Sloan-C conference at another hotel. Three instructional technology guys. We talked distance education, course management systems, Americans with Disabilities Act compliance the whole trip.
Buena Vista Palace hotel works. Easy check-in. Comfortable scale to the architecture. I got a room on the top (well, except for the ballroom) floor with a balcony overlooking various water features. Set out at 11pm looking for a snack not expecting to find one. Found a little in-hotel market with breakfast, lunch or dinner items available at reasonable (for in the hotel) prices. So far, I like this place. Now, sleep, and then conference.
Tuesday early
Charming views from the balcony this morning. Found the NPR station last night, so awoke to Morning Edition as usual. Dixville Notch went heavily for Obama this election day.
I love a hot shower. Water pipes are connected backwards in my shower. Since it took a while for hot water to arrive at all, I was fooled into not realizing this, and took a cold shower. Tomorrow, perhaps.
