Hi guys,
A little while I posted a web page Trip Report for our recent Cape trip (it’s at Site Link if you missed it
Since then, Sandy (of Steve and Sandy fame) has been toiling away on the same thing but in a different format – it’s a collection of photo’s, put to music. That sounds pretty basic, but if you download the file, you’ll see the amount of effort to go into it, and the result is simply first class. She has the pictures to the beat of the music, and by the time that you’ve finished it, you feel like you were right there..
It’s all done with Windows Movie Maker, which is part of Windows XP – as Sandy says “It's a good program because you have so many options for the final copies, I've got a huge AVI file, the WMV file, and then one just under 6mb for the PDA so Steve can take it to work tomorrow!”
Anyway, if you’re interested, the file is at
http://ivansanders.server101.com/CapeYork06.wmv - it’s 50Mb, but that’s not that big these days…
(it'll only be there for a month, but then will be available from a link on the Trip Report above)
Cheers
Ivan

Hi Ivan
Downloaded the video, what a great way to remember your trip. I have just rewatched it with number one child who was 10 when we went in 1992. It brought back a lot of memories that even he said I remember that place or that crossing. Just makes me want to go again but then again there are so many
places that we have been that I want to go again.
Cheers
