Techno Day


Check Spelling



On Sunday 2-17 my son and I attended the
Rockwell Collins and Wald Disney World Design and Engineering Power Puzzle First Lego League Florida Championship Comepetition.
Now thats a mouthfull.
48 engineering teams from around the state competed with lego robots.
Woke up at 5am left at 6am drove to Melbourne (1.5 hrs) 8am start time till 6:30pm then drive home. That is a 15-16 hour day. That's cool BUT
The competing part is 3 rounds at 2.5 minutes.
Lets look at this again 16 hours for a total of 7.5 minutes. WOW!!!
The top 2 pics are a few of the 48 teams. Alot of teams dress up, have songs, and a few even had a mascot. The kids did have a blast. The team with the blue capes and look like wizards won and they get to go to Atlanta for the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP. Good luck.
Now the bottom picture, See the man in front of me with the white shirt with stripes and his head in his hand?
Thats right, he's sleeping.
Alot of parents were sleeping,
In chairs, bleachers, hallways, in cars, and out in the grassy area.
Going to check out the loooony lunar eclipse.
I'll post again next week. I promise.
Dwight Howard IS the man.

Very cool...what is a lego robot? Reeve is VERY into legos...plays with them ALL them time and is constantly coming up with all sorts of different creations. I'd bet he'd be into creating a lego robot!
