Position 0630 10th 4036 04501 trip 106, DMG 105 Yay – another ton at last. I think we might be finally clear of Africa. It's been a bleak and very uncomfortable few days and still is but we are moving again.
SW – welcome back!
Malcom, yep! The Nik is a D70s digital SLR with a long lens but it's no way waterproof or salt proof so I can only really get it out of its wrapper when the sun is shining. Then it's fantastic. The vid is a Sanyo Xacti waterproof digital and works fine – except that I can't tell what I'm filming most of the time when outside in daylight – either reflection or not enough backlight in the viewfinder screen.
Sue, fingers crossed for you – no need for further wx updates thanks – enjoy the trip!
All seems very quite out there. Fingers too cold to prod keyboards in England perhaps and all down at the beach or the pub in Oz.
