On Saturday, we went to Comicon for our last day there. We went to a panel with Matt Diniman and the narrator of Dungeon Crawler Carl, Jeff Hays. After the panel, we went to an event sponsored by Audible. It was at an arcade, and both Matt Diniman and Jeff Hays were there. It had free food and arcade games, as well. We waited in line for two and a half hours before we got in. Matt had to go do something else, but we still got a picture with him as he was leaving. We also got free mugs, and Jeff even signed one of them for me!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kosmos.liveflux.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_8391.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jeff Hays and Matt Dinaman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kosmos.liveflux.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_8405.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Matt Dinaman, Eric and Keith<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Cette semaine \u00e9tait trop g\u00e9niale. Samedi nous sommes all\u00e9s \u00e0 la Comicon pour notre dernier jour. Nous sommes all\u00e9s \u00e0 un panel avec Matt Diniman et le narrateur de Dungeon Crawler Carl, Jeff Hays. Apr\u00e8s le panel nous sommes all\u00e9s \u00e0 un \u00e9v\u00e8nement qui \u00e9tait sponsoris\u00e9 par Audible. C\u2019\u00e9tait dans une arcade o\u00f9 Matt Diniman et Jeff Hays \u00e9taient l\u00e0. Il y avait de la nourriture gratuite et des jeux d\u2019arcade aussi. On est rest\u00e9 en ligne pendant 2 heures et demies pour entrer. Matt devait faire quelque chose d\u2019autre, mais on a quand m\u00eame fait une photo avec lui quand il partait. Il y avait aussi des tasses gratuites, et Jeff en a m\u00eame sign\u00e9 une pour moi!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kosmos.liveflux.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_8410.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Keith, Jeff Hays and Eric<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday we took care of chores and saw friends and family. We flew back to Virginia on Tuesday night, and we arrived in Baltimore at 5:00 AM est on Wednesday. We then waited for three hours, then flew down to Norfolk, which only took an hour.\u00a0For the rest of Wednesday, I was pretty much a zombie. I took a nap, but dad woke me up in the middle of it because we were going to get lunch. On the way there I was super tired and my head kept dropping, but a split second later I pulled it back up.\u00a0On Thursday, I was also really tired. We didn\u2019t do much except for going on a walk.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kosmos.liveflux.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_8414.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">mug signed by Jeff Hays<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Dimanche, lundi et mardi nous avons fait des corv\u00e9es et vu des amis et de la famille. Nous avons vol\u00e9 vers la Virginie mardi soir, puis nous sommes arriv\u00e9s \u00e0 Baltimore \u00e0 5:00 heure EST le mercredi. On est rest\u00e9 pour 3 heures, puis on a vol\u00e9 vers Norfolk ce qui a dur\u00e9 juste une heure.\u00a0Pour le reste de Mercredi j\u2019\u00e9tais un zombie. J\u2019ai fait une sieste, mais papa m\u2019a r\u00e9veill\u00e9 parce qu\u2019on mangeait le repas. Sur le chemin j\u2019\u00e9tais tr\u00e8s fatigu\u00e9 et ma t\u00eate ne faisait que de tomber, mais une demie seconde plus tard je la redressais.\u00a0Jeudi j\u2019\u00e9tais aussi tr\u00e8s fatigu\u00e9. On n\u2019a pas fait beaucoup de chose \u00e0 part une promenade.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kosmos.liveflux.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/IMG_2998-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On Friday, we went to Yorktown. I was still kind of in zombie mode, so I didn\u2019t learn a whole lot except that in old days the reason why the old soldiers walked in straight lines while they fought. It was because muskets were very inaccurate, so you needed a whole barrage of bullets to have a chance to hit someone. The highlight of the day was when I saw a musket demonstration, followed by a cannon demonstration. We went to dinner near Yorktown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/kosmos.liveflux.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/colorful-uniforms-and-bayonets-740.mov\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Vendredi nous Sommes all\u00e9s \u00e0 Yorktown. J\u2019\u00e9tais encore en mode zombie, donc je n\u2019ai pas appris grand chose sauf que dans le pass\u00e9 la raison pour laquelle les soldats combattaient en ligne \u00e9tait parce que les mousquets n\u2019\u00e9taient pas tr\u00e8s pr\u00e9cis, donc il fallait une pluie de balles pour qu\u2019ils touchent quelqu\u2019un. Le point culminant du jour c\u2019\u00e9tait la d\u00e9monstration du mousquet, qui \u00e9tait suivie par une d\u00e9monstration de cannon. On a mang\u00e9 le d\u00eener proche de Yorktown.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/kosmos.liveflux.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/IMG_2996.mov\"><\/video><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week has been amazing.
