Happy Birthday Mum! ( No photos )
Despite not yet having our bond back, everything is getting rather scary.
We're now about as settled into Margaret's as we're going to be and we have our plane tickets and accommodation vouchers! Many thanks to Kim Bartlett from National World Travel for all your hard work.
Liz today bought an Olympus mju Zoom 140 camera - a nice little 35mm jobby to take "real" photos with. Supposedly weather proof as well, so we might just have to see how true that really is...
I've thrown together a little movie of our experiences so far. Entitled Our World is Changing (8.8MB - you might need QuickTime to view it), it's my first effort using Apple's iMovie software, and I have to say, I'm very impressed with what it can do. My camera can take movies (although without sound), and merged with some pictures, transitions, music and titles, I came up with this little thingy.
Let me know what you think, we might do this now and then to show you what we're up to.
