Day 54: Point-and-Shoot Camera

My children, nieces and nephew are privileged to be invited to cruise the world with their grandparents during their 13th summer. Sam visited Anne Frank's house, climbed Hadrian's wall with a new friend, and shot goals at the Scottish Football Museum. He also took pictures with a little red Sony one-shot that we gave him for his 12th birthday.

Already taking pictures!

The exponential increase in cruising most likely isn't doing the oceans any good. Air pollution, sewage, and vessel discharges are all getting activists activated. If you're thinking of taking a cruise and you're interested in minimizing your eco-footprint, check out this cruise report card and choose accordingly.

Sam hasn't used the one-shot since the big trip, almost four years ago. Once again, his iPhone is the wonder-device that does it all, including instant posts to Vimeo or Twitter. The Sony has been sitting forgotten in a drawer. Now it's my niece Kaeli's turn to travel, and we've handed it down. She thinks it's pink and she loves it.
