May 18, 2016
Today was the kind of day that you love in Cuenca, sunny, but with enough cloud to be comfortable, without a rain. So it was not a day to stay inside.
We walked the dogs a few times and went to Feria Libre and poked around. We strolled the mega aisles of clothing and I ended up finding a light waterproof windbreaker for riding Toxic on days like this ($17). The Cristina loaded me down with vegetables and we caught the bus back home.
I finally managed to make an appointment with the bank manager for tomorrow, so all is well.
A friend has organized a December cruise from Buenos Aires to Rio De Janiero and I am so tempted but I just can't justify that cost for the two of us for only 11 days. Then I got an email about cruise deals and there are some really hot deals in Europe and the Med right now, like 82% off on some. I will have to spend some time and find one that goes where I want, without too many sailing days...
I
still keep trying to get accustomed to this fancy little Samsung but I
have a problem with it. It has only the rear screen to view, no
viewfinder, and I rarely have my glasses within reach, so I can't easily
see what I am doing. Operator error as usual... I need a camera like
this, but with a viewfinder. If anybody wants a great little point+shoot
with many capabilities: movies, panorama, wi-fi, macro, sports and more,
.. just let me know. I will let it go for $100 with the hard case and
16Gb microSD card.
The photos today are all taken with the little Samsung WB35F. The camera itself retails for $200-$300, depending on where you look.
I hope you enjoy the photos. That was the day's
excitement, Cheers,
