Tired…

Today was Animal Kingdom and Epcot. Woo.

But tired…very tired.

Tomorrow? NASA and Cocoa Beach :)

So the only shot you get tonight is the group shot with Lilo and Stitch. And hell…I’m wearing a Hawaiian shirt so it works. Right? :)

Orlando 2009 – Photos Part 1

Taking off soon but wanted to post a few photos just to get started. Proof that I’m here :)

Chip and Dale and my cousin and her friend. No…I do not know which is Chip ad which is Dale. Though my cousin is on the left.

When you’re with Japanese people taking a photo you just have to do a peace sign…you…you just have to…

Ooooh…purty…

A quick note to my Japanese readers: 写真をクリックすると大きく見れますよ!

Well, the cousin and her friend made it and we are at the house in Reunion Resort in Kissimmee, FL. Tomorrow? Disney World. Wooo. Hooo.

Anyway, for today here are shots of the house.

And the girl’s planning tomorrow’s excursion.

School of Rock Show in B&W

Since this blog is just as much a portfolio as my gallery, here’s some previews about about 14 photos I did some B&W work on from the show this past weekend.

Overall the shots came out good in color but some shots just looked better this way. And since I shot with such high ISO, it had this natural graininess that I really liked for this type of very high contrast B&W style.

You can see it all here: http://photos.timarai.com/p847949224

The view out of my window in my hotel. Standard hotel park just outside Orlando Airport. Going to take it easy tonight (aka watch TV and just be blaaaaah) and tomorrow my cousin and her friend gets in and we are off to the company house in Reunion, FL!

New Photo Gallery Address – 新しい写真のウェブサイトアドレス

Another one of those rare bilingual posts…

まためったにないバイリンガルのポストです!

I have decided to go with the photo gallery that I have been testing and, to that end, I have finally mapped a new address to it so it is seamless with my blog and my personal web page.

この一週間テストをしていたフォトギャラリーを正式に使うことを決めたので現在使っているブログや個人のホームページと同じように名前を変えました。

http://photos.timarai.com

This should be easier to remember.

このほうが覚えやすいと思います。

I have uploaded a few more photos including all the preliminary photos from the kid’s rock concert from yesterday. Enjoy!!

昨日ポストした子供たちのロックコンサートの写真もはじめの57枚をアップロードしました。見てくださいね!

Why am I, who travels all the damn time, posting a photo of my luggage? Because there is one key important thing in here. No suit! No dress shirt!! No tie! No slacks! No dress shoes! No tie clip! No little plastic thingies that I slip into my collar of my dress shirt! As indicated by the cargo shorts and the hawaiian shirt, it’s vacation packing! Woohoo!

…now…to make sure my cousin and her friend are not too twitchy about the swine flu…for godsakes…

I know it’s past 2am…but I wanted to upload the photos and I figured while I’m up I might as well do the photo of the day from Saturday.

The highlight (besides going over to a coworker’s house to play video games – thus the late night) was a show put on by the School of Rock here in Rocy River (yes, same name as the movie) and I went there to see a friend of mine’s 2 kids who play with the group. The show’s theme was “Guitar Gods” with songs by various bands including Van Halen, Led Zepplin, and even Pantera. Quite diverse.

So, here is her daughter Quinn looking cool playing the bass.

And her brother Dan belting out a tune.

Once all the shots are uploaded to my new gallery, I will post again!

Rock on!

Woohoo. I’m on vacation! Off to Orlando on Monday and not coming home until Monday the 4th! …now…I will also try to avoid the Blackberry. Try…

Anyway, today was a heat wave!! Remember…I walked through sleet from the parking lot to get into the office Wednesday morning.

Today? When I got home at 5:30pm?

85 degrees.

It’s like we went from a late winter to early summer with no spring in between! (not complaining mind you!).

This allowed me to open up my windows again for the first time in a while. And this called for a good beer.

Of course this made me a tiny bit tipsy…I’m such a lightweight now it’s pathetic.
