Wow I was wondering when you would finally speak of your new president - the tone of your comments does not surprise me given your obvious political slant. Obama inherited a mess created by a group of white males who for years scamed their fellow citizens and got away with it because they were friends with those in power, actually had helped put them in power. At this point Obabma has no choice but to spend, spend, spend, because if he doesn"t those who wish him failure will somehow blame him for the downturn in the American economy - he is brave because if the spending doesn't work he will have to bare the consequences - It saddens me that you mock his integrity suggesting that all he has is good speaking skills - he got to where he is because he has worked hard, he wasn't hand picked because of his family connections, he has no vested interests except, I believe, to bring about changes which will allow a more equitable distribution of the resources of your country - given the time you have spent in countries where a small percentage of people control a huge amount of wealth whilst there is famine, disease, rape and pileage, I should think that you should be proud that it is possible to become President of the United States in a honourable way

I traveled through Europe in the early 70's. I remember taking a 'vacation' from my travels - setting up my small tent in a camp ground in Kalamata, Greece and pledging not to
visit a museum, church, archeological site, whatever for two weeks - I needed a break - your blog today reminded me of that - thank you
p.s. at that time I was a 22 year old female travelling alone, mostly hitchhiking on a $5.00 a day budget - I've been wanting to hit the road again ever since - reading your blog keeps that idea alive for me - second thank yhou

I have friends who just returned from Australia- claim they took over 800 pictures on a single charge with a lithium battery - I usually get 300 or so - I much prefer the lithium to AA's - which do not keep their charge when not in use - the lithium does - very light, so is the charger and you can get a second battery for around 40.00 - I have a Sony Cyber Shot - curious as to what kind of camera you use - if you've mentioned it, i missed it
