first foto downloaded

Hello friends,
after a lot of time somebody asked for it, I finally took the time to download a foto. After this weekend I will download more news from Costa Rica.
Count down running 14 1/2 hours before leaving for vacation from family...
Wendy (Jolly Roger 2 without sidecar)is waiting outside.

So friends,
count down tells 8 1/2 hours...
I just read Beemerchef Ara and Spirt's blog and saw that quite a few of you visted the 2 first humble photos I put in today.
Now I know how it works and I see you are interested, so THIS TIME I PREPARED THE CAMERA AND PROMISE TO USE IT FOR YOUR ALL DELIGHT.
That's a promise that has to be kept.
Although the sidecar is off and Wendy is only on two wheels. Enrique Gonzalez and I will send you photos from the beginning rainy season. For sure they will not be as professional as Ara's, but the intent is what counts.
You know why I normally never take a camara with me on the bike?
On my second journey back in 1883 an excellent camera spilled 3-5 rolls because in Finland the roads are smooth but so wavy that the shocks kicked through frequently. The camera was in the smoothest spot of the bike (top of the tank pack) but anyhow it didn't like it much, a years savings were lost. Since then I said to myself that I prefer to live the moment and store everything in the mind.- Who knows if all these klicking Japanese have more from their vacations?
So in a few hours I will have vacations from family and job. Hope to visit this forum soon again and fulfil my promise.
Best regards
Sven Peter
PS:I do not want to insult the few friends here who pray for their sun's in Iraq. - I do pray in these days for our Irish Setter / Golden Retriever breed. The veterinarian took out of her today in the morning a 3,4kg (7 pound) tumour. Nana is on her feet already but the next days and weeks are crucial for her to come through and later hopefully ride again in Jolly Roger 2. Then I will have to search for doggles too. Its my family's fault if they think TV is more educational - My opinion is my life more interesting then any TV show.
....8 hours....

Got back last night, I am richer now on lots of photos, some 900 something km, wet clothes and thousands of bends and curves...
I'll keep up later or tomorrow. You will see.
Regards
Sven
Sven - What's the status on Nana? Is she going to be allright?

Larry,
I just had to clean my shoes from her poo. If that isn't a good notice.
She is outside on the porch's chair watching the starting rain.
Little slow and down because of the lack of anestesis, but with that drug she played too much and hurt herself.(I can tell a 8 month story about that myself => better an akeing belly, then open wounds and penicillin resistant bacteria in your body.)
I will try to size down now the promised photos.
Best regards
Sven Peter

OK friends,
two hours of work and some photos are now to see from Costa Rica in the Photo section. Still some more will come in these days.
Its still raining cats (warming my arm on the office desk) and dogs (all 3 sleeping on the porch's chairs). And I had already the third last call from my wife, its time to go home and pick up our son in the neighbourhood.
Regards
Sven Peter Pan
