This past weekend Tina and I went to an anime convention in Orlando. Full blame for this rests on Possum and/or Mary. Alex, another good SLUG friend was also a member of our party. We were supposed to leave around 9:30AM, but didn’t end up leaving until around noon. I made sandwiches, which sort of delayed our departure. Further delays occurred because a few people had to go the bank and withdraw some cash. While doing this, the fifth member of our party (Alex) called asking how much longer until we pick him up. Possum told him we were on the interstate, while in fact we were in the parking lot of the bank!
On the way to Orlando, we kidnapped Alex, saw sandhill cranes, and ate sandwiches.
After around 100 miles of driving, we arrived at the anime convention.
The first thing we were greeted with were power rangers. Apparently the red ranger was trying to take a picture of the white ranger’s butt.

There was also a rather tall Kenshin.

A strange being encased in carbonite:

I have no idea what:

The fire guy from Full-Metal Alchemist:

Swords.

Tails and a sword.

More tails.

Furries:

Things from zelda:

More furries:

Lord Van and the cat girl from Escaflowne:

Possum in drag:

The kingdom hearts guy:

More Full-Metal Alchemist people. (Yes, that Edward is a girl).

More furries. Why does the fox say “Cosine”? The two non-furries are Mary and Possum, from left to right.

Alex became a persocom (Chobits):

We ate at IHOP.

Also, someone might have stolen a fork from the IHOP.
We saw the original Green Ranger, Jason David Frank! I think we scared him.
