@pimoore where we live in Germany, it is require to show proof of vaccination or a megabit test to go to the theater. Since we were vaccinated already, this helped us feel a little more comfortable with going. The theater that we went to also has assigned seating, which is nice, but they were also blocking one to two seats between groups to prevent people from sitting right next to each other.

I would also love to see this one on the big screen as well. Only way to properly appreciate the sand worms. 😬

@pimoore @jsonbecker I’m so looking forward to this as well. We actually went to a movie two weeks ago. Our first since things started reopening. It was a fun kids movie for our daughter, went with a friend and her two oldest kids. I was super nervous about it, but there ended up being only one other mom and her two kids there, so it was, thankfully, empty. But it was nice to go and feel a little normal again.

@greghiggins That’s awesome. I loved watching Buck Rogers when I was little. I met Gil Gerard at Dragon Con in Atlanta once.

@manton we were just there a few weeks ago as well. It was so cool seeing the baby panda playing around. 🐼 The whole zoo was pretty nice. So much to see.

@Gaby I didn’t get in to Tolkien much, past The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. But I loved those stories. A friend of mine and I even started using Elvish to write notes in school a little bit.

@maique with my first dose, my shoulder was sore for about 3 days. I’m a bit nervous for the second dose. Hoping that our symptoms aren’t too bad.

@Gaby same here. I’ve tried not to get into rumors too much. I want to be excited and surprised. That way I’ll enjoy it no matter what.

@maique nice. That’s what we got. Get our second dose this Wednesday.

@maique the only issues that we had was some pretty rough turbulence on both legs. The first leg was pretty rough on take-off and landing. Our daughter, sadly, got sick on the landing. But she was fine again pretty quick. The she slept through the rough stuff on the long flight. 😂

There was a dessert that they served, it was like an orange glaze on top of a white center with cookie breading at the bottom. Not sure what it was called, but it was delicious. Is that a Portuguese dessert? Curious, since I’ve ne er seen that before.

@maique oh wow. Glad that we had good timing for that then. 😃

@maique thanks. The weather here today is amazing. Wish that we could stay a bit longer. Definitely gonna have to make it back here. ☺️

@maique yeah, first time flying TAP. Enjoying the experience so far. I love that they let families with small children board early to get ahead of the traffic. 😃

@fahrni nice. I’ve had a few makeup moments already as well. I forgot about the polish and we went out to the park and to the train station to pick up a lost bag. I wasn’t paying attention, but I’m sure that I got some funny looks. 😂

@odd thanks. Yeah, it is definitely annoying. Thought it was getting better, but we were waiting for a train and another came by and created a suction effect with the wind and that irritated it even more. Thankfully, my wife was a nurse, so I’m trying to not get stressed about it as long as she’s not worried.

@maique yeah, same here. We are traveling to see family in May and really nervous about it. We haven’t visited them in over 2 years now b/c our trips last year got canceled. Our connecting flight is actually in Lisbon, I’ll wave as we come through. 😊

@philbowell same here in Germany. I saw it on the forecast yesterday but I didn’t believe it.

@maique you’re not alone. I had some of the same feelings once lockdown restrictions started to be lifted here last year. It was so nice and quiet near our flat with hardly any cars on the road. It was noticeable very quickly that restrictions were lifted when the noise came back. As much as I’m ready for life to return to normal and be able to travel again, it was nice with the peace and quiet for a bit.

@Gaby I feel like we were spoiled during the 2 year old phase. Our daughter wasn’t super difficult like I was expecting. She will be 4 in September and we definitely see the attitude more and more like you me ruined. Definitely learning a lot about patience. 😂 Hope that it calms down for you soon. 🙂

@maique looks like an amazing day. I sadly haven’t checked in here in a while. Your little one has grown so much and walking now. 😃

@Gaby amen to that. We’ve been going through some of this lately with our three year old as well. Definitely makes me want to start drinking sometimes. 😂

@pimoore @AndyNicolaides yeah. I mostly use it on the iPhone b/c of some of that. He’s working on some improvements and I’m curious to see how it turns out.

@manton I didn’t even know that they were remaking this. After seeing the trailer, I agree, I’m a little excited to see this. 😃

@pimoore @AndyNicolaides I’d love for this to be supported natively as well. Currently Gluon is the only app that I’ve seen that remembers your last position. Although, it is a custom implementation and doesn’t sync between devices. It’s still nice though if you haven’t tried it out.

@jmreekes I didn’t ever think that she was paying attention. She was just running around playing. But she did start dancing a bit and trying to sing to some of the worship songs.

@Gaby I remember my first Walkman that I got for Christmas. I got the Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Dream cd with it. I wore that thing out. 😃
