I remember being a kid, and being unwilling (or unable) to wait until midnight of the 24 to open my presents. Many times I would have opened already, played with them, and re-wraped them in colorfull paper again.
Thouse days seem to be over. Well, maybe not for the being a kid part.
Even thought I still deeply apreciate getting gifts, I do not feel the rush to unwrap them. I get calls on the 25 from friends, asking me “did you like it?”. I feel it disapoints them a little whan I say, I have not opened it. Well, today seems like a good day to open them. [Yes, today, Friday 27 of January 2006]. Let's find out what we got.
The camera adaptor had som design flaws. 1) I did not tested it with the camera inside. That was a major one. The pvc bag is not flat when a box like body is inside, so the velcro on the back does not work as espected.
Lucky for me, I carry my duct tape everywhere...
2) The angle of view was not adecuated (it was pointing downwoards, and I have lots of pictures of my feet in the boat).
3) There was condensation inside the bag. I should have applied something to prevent this.
Anyways, there where a few acceptable shots.
This is Ilse Castillo with the plane that took us to Chiriqui. [No, the blur effect is not here to protect the privacy, I actually goofed on taking this picture.]
What a beautiful shut of the rope. [I was in the water, trying to get into the boat]
