Gearing Up (literally and otherwise)

T-minus six days! I've been staying busy here at home reading many guidebooks on Vietnam and southeast Asia; Trev left for school, Mom was out for a few days on a business trip to D.C., and Dad and I went on two day trips to Maine: once to York and Kittery and the other to Boothbay Harbor and Popham (pictures posted in my online gallery - read on). I still need to get a few traveler's cheques and a couple small items (deodorant, pens) for my trip but otherwise I'm ready to go!

Today I created my online Apple-supported MobileMe gallery. With this page I can both share my photos from my travels with family and friends and I can also use it as an online storage account. I plan on uploading my pictures every so often so that I (a) delete old photos from my memory cards and (b) have full resolution digital copies of my pictures should something (damage, theft) happen to my camera. When I return, I can download the pictures from the online gallery to my mac. Way to go Apple!
