Yeah!

This is the photo on my 'under construction' page for Gardening - Alpines. I have decided to make these under construction pages for all the albums I have listed, but not completed, on my web page. Hopefully this will mitigate some of the annoyance people might feel when they try to access an album and get the 'not found' message.

I have finally loaded our trip to Malta in 2003, to the Travel page. I like how it looks. There is one little mistake that I found, but its too small to be bothered with reloading it all. Check it out! www.mmmee.com/03Malta

I tried to clean out the cache of my browser, and managed to clear out a few other things, including my favourites on VFXY. My browser is pretty fast, now though. I spent a bit of time recovering my favourites. Hope I found them all.

I had a quick look at Word Press for web page design. Microsoft has a new page builder in beta, I think. I am still thinking about Dreamweaver, though, as the best one. I want to do my own blog, too, probably with pixel post. But this is in the future, as I have a few things to do at the moment.

More from the Malta trip

I used my Canon EOS Elan 7e with Tri-X and my 28 - 135 lens. Tweaked it a bit in photoshop. I have finished preparing the photos for this album. Should have it loaded in another few days.

Pompei

In going through my photos of our trip to Pompei I found this one of the baths. I love the sun shining down through the skylights. What a life those Romans lived!

Pompei

When we were in Malta, we booked a flight to Naples, Italy, and booked a hotel for a couple of nights. We went to the marvelous archelogical museum. That building itself, is a worth taking the time to see. We then booked a bus tour with a guided tour of Pompei. We had an excellent guide. The excavated city takes you back to 79 (AD or BC? Not sure) when the volcano Vesuvius blew its top and covered the city in lava and ash. Rick Steeves did a travel show segement on Naples and Pompei and it aired this evening on TV. How very timely.
