On dial-up I couldn't really wait for all the pictures to load. I waited a
long, long time for about 1/3-1/2 to load. ;-)
Read a little of the travel diary
Nice story and great photos.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi!
Thanks Boris, I will post a note when I get it done, I think it'll
actually end up being quite a few pictures, I'm having a hard time
culling.
I am on 1.5 Mbit ADSL connection at home and on even broader band at
work... Don't worry about me...

Cheetah shots.

JP,
Some great photos in there. It would be nice if you simply put a
couple of statements after each of the lines so
that they didn't just image into a jumble! As it is, they're a little
difficult to browse through.

Cool pictures.
I hope you don't mind, I lifted a few for wallpaper.

Thanks David, it was a great trip.
I didn't actually lay out the images, I just threw them all up in a
line.. just a place-holder for a few people who wanted to see the pics.
The text is just the start of my transcribing of my travel log.

Jon Paul,
Some thoughts,
First, the Ngorongoro Crater (not gorge - you're thinking of Ol Duvai) and
Serengeti (they're next door) are perhaps the best game park combination
in East Africa, though there are many others. For instance, Lake Manyara,
where the lions climb trees;

I did a two week tour of Egypt back in July. I took my *istDS,
DA18-55mm, F70-210mm, and an M50mm F1.7. I had a 1Gb SD card in the
camera and took along my PD7X (40Gb) portable drive, and three spare
sets of rechargeable NIMH batteries. This all fitted inside
