Baby Cody arrives in Stuttgart, Germany
« on: March 11, 2011, 07:27 PM »
Hello fellow DCers, it's been quite a while since I've last been active on the forums.
This is going to change now since I'll be reporting on Baby Cody's adventures in Stuttgart.

A few minutes ago Cody flew through the door of shackspace, the Stuttgart hackerspace.
I managed to snap a quick photo of him when he landed right in the middle of one of the electronic lab's workbenches.

The guys at shackspace are currently in the middle of renovating their newly acquired space and then moving their stuff from the old to the new one.  Cody kindly offered to help with the logistics and will be supervising the move!

Stay tuned for more Baby Cody news over the following days!

Hey, he is relatively close to my place (compared to DoCo home), but still a bit too far to make a quick visit to shake wings :-\

gjehle, heads up with the move, with Baby Cody supervising I'm sure it will work out right ;)

Maybe he's refilling it with some wasabi pellets of his own.

Hm, moving house is always a good time to throw out some old or undetermined stuff :-[

I wouldn't pay too much attention to Cody's supervision, not unless you want even more of a mess.

The new space in Ulmer Strasse 255 (aka 0xff) in Stuttgart Wangen.  We're still very busy fixing up the place. The old location (kind of stripped down now) is in the middle of the Nordbahnhof area.

Here's what Baby Cody did over the weekend.
First he traveled a bit by train to arrive at the old shackspace location where he was amazed by the mural on the front wall.
Cody got busy right away and helped loading the truck with stuff we had to move to the new space!

Cody arrived at the new location in Stuttgart Wangen where he checked out the new hacker lounge area that we already freed up and the heaps of trash that were caused by that.
He also found some ancient bird depictions on one of the doors. Must be a good sign!
A quick trip down the center corridor and Cody fully approved of our soon to be server room :)
Painting was done as well, Cody checked up on that.
Time for a spin on the "no fan". no, seriously, that's not a fan!
Cody also found some tools like this router.

Mmmmmm, power tools :D
And that little spark in Cody's eye when he was near the torch... I tell you, watch that bird!
Cody also personally helped putting up masking tape all over the space.
Two busy days end with a trip on the Stuttgart U-Bahn.

I'm sure there's more to come soon :)

I just arranged a daytrip for tomorrow!
If everything turns out as planned Baby Cody will have a story or two to tell :)

i love the over-the-shoulder view point -- gives us a feel for how baby cody sees the world.  and i love the special molded Baby Cody seat you had installed on that train.. you guys really know how to treat your guests.

Marvellous. This has turned out to be Cody's best photo story yet. As mouser says, good idea with the camera angles.

Yay new adventures and pictures!

Just when I was getting impatient and wanted to nag. Excellent! It's exciting to see Baby Cody taking part in the super critical house moving.

How do other members of shackspace react to Baby Cody?

As Crush & Tera visited the Shackspace Cody flew directly to my wife and forced us to make a photo with him.

at first people were like: wtf, where's the bird coming from, what does it want? whyyyy?
but cody explained everything very patently and by now he's practically part of the family :)

i think a deck of CodyCards should accompany baby cody on all his journeys so he can teach his new friends to play wherever he travels.

I like that idea!
