Grans birthday

My ran mother had her 98th birthday party on the first.

It was a good time, my mom invited 26 but only 23 showed.

All told there was enought left overs to feed Iceland for a week. :)

Off with Karen for the week end, we are driving down to Banff through jasper and spent the first night in lake louise(sp?). And the hiked. Up to the tea house. My poor sore feet!

More later

almost time to fly.

I can't wait for Saturday, flying back to visit friends and family :) Also have a bunch of shoping to do, been getting orders from people to bring things from Canada.. I think my suitcase is going to be loaded with chocolate and goodies on the way back.

Summer

It ius finally feeling allot like summer, IE I can't sleep cause it is bright out side from 3:00 am to 11:56 pm.

I have found there is slight down side to this, when you want good pictures with really nice sky's in them you need a hour or so around sunset and sunrise.

So not allot of nice photos lately.

Other than that I am starting to get excited about going back to Canada for a visit. but strangely enough all I am thinking about is all the foods that i can't get here that I love. I am almost to the point of looking into a Purdies choclate franchise just to import hedgehogs to Iceland :)

Well I am going to enjoy the weekend, hoping for no rain and lots of biking opportunity :)

They are Done!

Ok got the last photos processed and uploaded. These include the Vatican, and fountains, and the coliseum. All in Rome!

Now to wright a email to everyone on the tour :)

And to write the trip report, hard to believe it was a month ago now :(

On the other hand we have has some of the most beautiful days here. So far from Saturday to now we have had 15c+ days and clear blue sky's. Been out biking again as I got the winter tires changed off and it is so east to pedal again. and we are getting close to 19hours of daylight right now. So there is a lot of nice Day.

YAAA Summer is here.


On another topic, check this out. This is like google, but searches computable data. For instance if you search for sunrise it will figure out where you are int he world and then figure out what time sunrise was and sunset and other related information. If you enter math formulas it will solve the formulas and display the results.

It is kinda cool.

PICTURES

well only one day of photos to filter, process, and upload till I have all of the Italy trip done, put up 2 more days tonight.

sorry

Joined a new raiding guild in wow, and they raid hard, Fri, Sat, Sun, and Mon nights. But the times are good, they start about 6:300 and end by 10:00 my time. But it has not left allot of time to edit photos.

But I give you the smart Police...
