Testing new technology

These are a few photos from our trip to Nepal in October.

Not the best photo of Everest but just testing our new method of blogging.

Tuk tuk in Bangkok - before we got ripped off.


We travelled up the river in these canoes. Interesting - they are not terribly stable.


Saw a lot of these interesting 'vehicles' in Bhaktapur.


I've been toying with ipad vs android tablet for some time in the hope of reducing the amount/weight of all this technology stuff and cables etc that we travel with. It adds up to quite a few kilos so hopefully the tablet will reduce this load.

Finally decided on a samsung tablet after solving the issue of downloading photos from camera and then backing up to usb flash drive. Problems solved with a $3.80 micro usb to usb connector.

And I've found an app to resize a batch of photos.

Lets see how this goes.

  4. I've had two Samsung tablets and actually prefer the older one. But the newer one is less bulker and fits in my travel handbag. It doesn't have a pen either. But love android
