Thursday December 11th 2008We'd bought a two day two park pass that included Disney Studios, to be honest when we bought it we thought we might end up doing both in one day, but I wish we had stayed for a week, there was plenty to entertain us and overall we were a bit rushed to try and get enough done ( Read more... )

I put together some basic Resolutions At the beginning of January. I thought I might see now how I've been doing with those, and make some adjustments for February:

January Recap:* I planned to do Wii Fit 30-60 minutes every day. I realised this would have to be before work therefore I'd have to get up at 6am. It took me nearly half the month to ( Read more... )

We woke up very excited today to get over to Disney Land. We had been meaning to go to Euro disney and the REAL one in LA but never did on previous visits. Today we were going a last.

We followed the crowds through the gates:

Tuesday December 9thThere wasn't any dramas traveling to Paris from Cairo. I was a bit disappointed to be leaving awesome weather for the rain and cold we'd be getting at home. Outside the terminal building I saw it was pouring rain, we dragged our bags to the Disney bus to get us to our hotel. I realised it wasn't raining after all IT WAS ( Read more... )

We had one more day in Cairo after our beach holiday in Hugada. This day was also the religious holiday Eid al-Adha - which is the Festival of Sacrifice. We were fortunate that during our previous days exploring Cairo our driver had explained the festival to us. Today we decided to explore on our own, adventuring out along ( Read more... )

I was tagged by Ken Guest to share seven random/weird things about myself.

1. Apparently I first met my husband at Linux Conf Au, 2001 (Jan 2001) but I only remember meeting him for the first time at the Sydney Linux User Group meetings. We got to know each other over many events over the next six plus months, however we didn't go on our first date ( Read more... )

I wrote on the OSSBarcamp blog about heading to FOSDEM Feb 6-8th, Last year was fantastic, ( I also blogged about it). It will be great to catch up with our friends that can also make it along, we seem to only see them at confs these days.

We had decided months ago, that the main goal for this holiday was to get some sunlight and some time to actually relax. Most of the trips we've done over the last few years have been action packed. So when our week on a Thailand beach was canceled, and we'd sat in bed for a day, with our electric blankets on, while there was wild wind and ( Read more... )

I guess the most surprising thing for us was that Cairo just didn't have the same sort of tourist shops as other countries we've visited. I had no idea that getting a map would be so hard, infact we never got either a map or a tourist guide book for the whole trip.

Tuesday December 2ndWe decided to explore today on our own. We wanted to eat ( Read more... )
