My Face Time Epcot Trip!

YES! You read that right! LOL

My parents are official in Disney World using the other half of the DVC points we share at Animal Kingdom. They told me they got a Savana view, so they are VERY excited. But anyways... for the cool part!

My Dad was one of the few (sarcasm) that got an iPad 2. Well... he doesnt own an iPhone, but the new iPad has front and rear facing cameras which means he can Face Time. He didnt get one with a cell chip in it, so he uses his cell phone for internet when they are out and about. Well... this is what he did!






After that we said bye and such, and five minutes later, got a FT call from him again:


I got to watch the WHOLE Offkilter show! In the middle of it, the guitarist asked my Dad what he was reading. After the show, he went up to him said he was being broadcast to me in Ohio! He was very excited to know that someone was a fan and watched them from Ohio!

So yeah... I got a little taste of Disney from the comforts of our home!

Nice Mase. I was wondering who would be the first to post something like that. Sort of figured it would be you! I'm still looking for a good web cam to use when we go in Oct. & Jan. What were you using to watch your dad's video, cell phone, computer, Ipad?

I have my iPhone 4 so we used that. Im getting a Macbook so ill probably use that in the future if im not out and about, but it was funny... I was about to start dinner when he called me, and he originally tried to FT me while he was on Spaceship Earth! But we couldnt get a connection. So we talked and he showed me the Winnie the Pooh topiary and the Cars and such. Then we hung up and I started dinner finally, and then I get the other FT call and watched Offkilter while making dinner! lol

We saw two of the Off Kilter sets yesterday. Will likely see 2-3 again today. Hope Mark, Randy, and Jamie are all there. Tell your parents to look for the guy in the Wisconsin shirt, with a cocktail in his hand. I'm buying!!
