029/366: 2-D Collision Physics

The JCC day care was closed again today, so I spent the day out and about with The Pip while SteelyKid was at school. While I did take the DSLR along, none of the pictures I got were all that great, so you get a cell-phone snapshot that's mostly interesting because of the subject matter:

The Pip playing air hockey. The Pip playing air hockey.

One of the two stops on our big outing of the day was the bouncy-bounce place in a local mall, which also has a bunch of awful game machines. And a kid-height air hockey table, which The Pip and I made heavy use of for a while. It's all physics, after all...

Day care re-opens tomorrow, and as much as I love spending time with my Little Dude, I will be very, very happy to drop him off in the morning and get back to my normal routine...

As promised/threatened in the previous post, here's a big collection of shots from our cruise vacation featuring the sillyheads. 243/366: Bunk Beds:
I try not to have this be Cute Kid Photo of the Day, but really, when these are the subjects, how can I avoid it?
It's a big week in Chateau Steelypips for martial arts and cute-kid photos.

Ah, the air-puck table: 8.01 physics lab at MIT ca. 1963
