I finally went to Walmart today and bought a new camera. Its a Sony Cybershot DSC W220 12 MP 4x Optical Zoom digital camera.

Pretty nice. And I like it a lot too.

... mother's name so she could cash it at the bank. The check is my affiliate earning for their affiliate program.

That's ok. Right now, I'm going down to the Walmart to try to pick up a few things. Wanna see if I get that camera among other things.

Plane ride was cold as hell but everything went down well.

Met my uncle outside the apt but my mother is busy working so I ain't gone see her until maybe Saturday. Thats if she don't run off work tomorrow... She's busy.

Up at 7:00AM this morning to get ready...today is embarkation day for our cruise. Went downstairs to eat the free (yes free) breakfast and wow did they have a lot of choices. Stuck with the safe bets (scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and fresh fruit) and guess what....COFFEE....Yes Hot, delicious COFFEE....FINALLY. The coffee was actually really,really good.

Back up to the room to make sure we had our transfer tags on ...

... we met our french neighbor who told us that it would be best to prop our tent right next to his for the wind shelter and the run off from the frighteningly close shower situation. Life was good naked but it was quite cold that night....for dinner we ate a vat of left over mashed patatoes we had stolen from Matt's fridge...cold and everything with a little ketchup....but those are the kind of things you do living on a budget... the ...

... to New Zealand, Australia, Japan and back to the US before returning it to his home near Sarasota Fl. Instead of his being one tough little boat, his was one tough big boat. It is about 10 times the size of ours! He had it there and we were able to see it and how well he had it equipped. Over dinner one night Dave ask if we would want to crew for them during their trip to take Adventure to the med in summer of 07. Sue and ...

... The Peace Corps hooked us up with $140 dollars for our two nights in Miami so nobody skimped on the pints. A few hours, and a few more Guinnesses later we made the trek back to the hotel and crashed. The next morning we were at it again by 8:30 am. We has sessions on "Peace Corps Purporses" "Unwanted Attention" "Safety and Security" and a few more ice-breaker games. And of course Kathy had more stories which were only loosely connected to her lecture topic but still ...
