Four weeks from tomorrow and we’ll be on our way to London. On Friday our passports, along with their Tanzanian visas, arrived safely home. Next week Stephen and I are going to the travel clinic for his shots and our anti-malarial meds. I’m buying a new point and shoot for the trip, and I’ve ordered some new glasses. All I really need to do now is buy clothes and pack. I talked to my friend Kayla yesterday; she’s getting married in three weeks and has a WHOLE lot on her plate, so in the grand scheme of things, I certainly don’t have much to complain about.
In other news: we’ve got the week off as a family, and there will be much partying and barbecuing. Spring has segued into summer and the world is absolutely lovely.
And this Saturday is my very first engagement session. eep.
Oh, gosh, oh gosh, GOOD LUCK. On everything. (And that photo is awesome!)
PS: You’re not bringing your good camera on your trip?
No, I decided to leave the D40 at home for a few reasons: it’s not a very discreet size, it’s really sensitive to dust, and a point and shoot can take video (which I really want to be able to do). The FX150 is probably the best compact available on our budget, and this way I’ll feel a lot more comfortable letting my brother take the camera for awhile.
That makes sense, I wouldn’t want to spend time worried about my camera- it detracts from the experience. And video, you’re right, is a must. =)
I thumbs up your decision.
Pretty picture! I also love the green glasses! :)
