Reflections of parents of not-so-young-kids-anymore
There are perhaps about half a dozen well-known ‘show caves’ in the Margaret River region, each having its own special look, feel and accessibility into the cave itself. We were uncertain which one would suit H and P best, and
The Margaret River town center certainly looks a lot more developed today in 2017 than I remember it from 2003, with lots more shops and eateries, and also more human and vehicular traffic than before. We had plenty of opportunities
The first whale-watching experience I with our Ang Mo bud had was in Gloucester in 2010 – site also of the famous disaster fictionalized in the year 2000 George Clooney The Perfect Storm – and I had a second trip

The X1 Carbon finally arrived yesterday – about 18 days from the point of order. And to get to the conclusion first before anything else: Marvelous machine, horrendous after sales support. The longer version will take a couple of posts.
It’s sometimes amusing to hear the camera division salespersons of large household electronic appliance stores pitch why one should buy cameras from them – even when they’re routinely sold at standard retail prices. They’d say their camera packages include all
Continuing from a post from just over a month ago here. The month of March came and went past without Microsoft making a formal announcement on the highly anticipated successor to the Surface Pro 4. Insider information though revealed that
