Fri 2007/04/27 16:44 Emi and Michael sleeping in the car. While we drove back from a friend's house, my eldest and youngest child fall asleep next to each other, on the car's back sit. After a few turns, they've ended up as you see them in the above picture, which I took thru the side window after stopping in front of my house. The N73 cellphone is really good when used as a camera. It managed to focus on the kids and not on the dirty window :-)

Thu 2007/04/19 13:58 picture taken and posted with Nokia N73 And what a day it was. After finishing 15-th overall in the National South African Police table tennis championships, I decided to go to the 'Shaka aquarium'. Unfortunately the weather did not play with as one can see from the above picture. I hope tomorrow afternoon the 'dice' will turn in my favor :)

Another day with the eagles.

Wed 2007/04/04 16:47 Rondebosh South East And what a day it was. After yesterday's fiasco (lost/dropped my car keys while 380+metre up), I flew for about half a hour up and down the ridge. At one time I managed to fly with 2 black eagles which nest nearby. I am always perplexed how a 'bird brain' manage to find the thermals (rising bubbles of warm air) without any instrumentation. The picture shows part of the highest peak at Rondebosh. (about 200m above the surrounding plains and 430m asl).
Also earlier in the day I've managed to find the keys I've dropped the day before ! Now that's no mean feat considering the size of the area and the vegetation. Of course the GPS come in very handy (I've back tracked the whole flight - on foot !)
