I'm home.
It's raining. I've a ton of studying to do.
So am I pleased to be back? Sort of....I missed my internet access! I missed my own bed. And I missed Cadbury's chocolate! LOL!
I'll tell you all about our stay in Spain soon.
Over the coming weeks I'm planning to store all my photos of our trip to Spain (and older piccies) on a new blog. I'll probably still post the odd one or two here, but pop over to my Profile and have a look at Our photos.

One of the nice parts about travelling is coming home :0)
Look forward to seeing your piccies. Have you thought about using Flickr?
yes, Flickr looks good. Any advantages to using that over another blog?
That is exactly what I've been wondering! :-)
I've come to a few conclusions, but don't know if they are 'right':
If you use tags Flickr enables a huge searchable index of photos, both your own and all of Flickr.
You can group your own photos into various sets which would probably make finding a particular photo easier as a Blog indexes primarily by date.
You can set viewing levels in Flickr. Private; Friends and family only; etc.
You can view the photos in different sizes in Flickr.
I don't know if there is a size limit to Blogs, but if you convert the free Flickr account to the Pro one the storage level is vast.
Flickr provides a different community. All the comments to particular photos I've read so far are very supportive.
I think the drawbacks could be said to be that it is yet something else to get your head around, and if you use the Pro version it costs a small amount. But on the whole I think the benefits outweighs these reservations.
I don't know if that helps you at all - but I think I've just talked myself into getting a Pro account for when we next go on holiday! (I take hundreds of piccies!)
haven't got to grips with what tags are for yet. But I did take the plunge and set up my own Flickr photos, just need a 36 hour day to enable me to get my 128MB worth of holiday snaps uploaded!
If your piccies are going online sometime I'd love to see them.
