incredible, as always. This is my 4th trip. There were 4 leaders and 44 11-12 year olds. It was incredibly fun, tiring, and hard work. Love Sydney, Brisbane is a place I could live. We spent a day at a elementary school there and that was such a treat. The Barrier Reef was a treat, getting there was not-very choppy waters. Took Dramimine and was sleepy. Cold water woke me.


A highlight of the trip was meeting Meganne and her husband. They put up with my hectic schedule, and met me at the hotel later one eve. We talked and talked and could have talked all night, except I kept yawning. We both have many things in common and that is what builds friendships.

Meganne graciously stitched a hotpad for me. It is so beautiful. I treasure it. I wish I could have met with more of you, but time was not my own. The craft show would have been right up my alley.

I hope the next time to Australia is with my hubby and we rent a place and stay for a month or two.

I have pictures to share but am not sure how to download them, could someone tutor me, Please!

I actually made time to embroidery tonight, a bookmark and added to my crazy quilt block.

Terri, I have been being patient and waiting for your post - knowing how busy you have been and all that you need to get done - but I will wait a bit longer - allow you to get your photo editing done - then I want to see some pictures. Hope we can arrange a visit in the near future, too. With the 4th of July coming up - I am sure it will have to wait until all that celebration is over. So happy to see you are home - safe and sound.

Hi Terri,

Thanks so much for the beautiful little golden coaster it's in my sewing room and I have my day calendar of famous spots in Italy sitting on it.

Now to download the pictures. First of all when you download them to your photo file name it something that will stick in your mind. When you post the question you cannot download the picture. You have to answer your own question and the ADD LINKS, UPLOAD IMAGE, UPLOAD VIDEO tabs will be seen.

You click on the UPLOAD IMAGE TAB and it will take you directly to your photos file. I use CANON ZOOMBROWSWER to download my pictures. Once you see a picture you want to download you click on that picture and wait - now a word of warning they must be under 2.7mb. I usually go into the edit button and make them smaller into KILABYTES. That's all there is to it. Have a go and see how it works out.

Love and blessings Chris.

P.S. they might take a couple of minutes to download, but they will eventually. If in doubt have a look at the Tutorials next to this page in the GENERAL section just under Tutorials and look for downloading pictures.

I just found the tutorial from Marjilexa about downloading pictures, in Tutorials so have a look.

Thanks, for the tips. I think my pics are too large, I'll work on that tomorrow. I'm glad you are enjoying the coaster. It is enjoyable to give a gift that someone appreciates.
Later
