We just got back from a wonderful Alaska cruise on Silversea’s Silver Shadow. I wasn’t sure that my 16GB memory card would hold the photos and video I’d be taking during the cruise, so one of the last things I did before leaving was visit Fry’s to pick up a spare.
As it turns out, 16GB was plenty (especially since I took my computer along and unloaded the camera nightly), and so I never even opened the package for the new memory card. Fry’s has a 15-day return policy for memory, and I decided I’d exercise it while running post-cruise errands today. Diane came with me, armed with a book to keep her busy while waiting, and a smile to make me feel better.
But Fry’s surprised us. We were in and out of the store in well under 5 minutes; I’m not sure she even opened her book!
Oh, and the pictures? I’ve posted some on a public album on Facebook, with more to come. Most of the ones that I’ve posted so far were posted live from my iPhone during the trip (AT&T’s 3G service in Juneau was nothing short of amazing — I wish it were half as fast here), but I’ll be adding more soon.
Just drove by the glacier brewhouse today :) Was curious about the Mendenhall glacier, how was it?
You’ve walked one glacier, you’ve walked them all. But the helicopter ride was SUPERB.
(And having Internet connectivity on the glacier so I could post photos in realtime was cool.)
