You're right about it being hard to do the area without going to Disneyland. Scotty and I did that in 2006. We goofed around in the Beverly Hills area doing exercises with Richard Simmons. It almost killed me not going to Disneyland. Scotty on the other hand couldn't have cared less.

Sherry, I've been trying to keep up! Loved all the photos! Looks like the camera did a great job. Glad you got a chance to practice before you hit Disneyland! Gotta run but just wanted to make a quick post to let you know I'm still out here.

Ugh - I am going to smash this computer! It shouldn't take a decade to get into a thread and post a reply, but it is happening to me all the time lately! At first I just thought it was a matter of too much traffic on the DIS, but now I think it's my PC.

Well, I guess if you have to miss DLR, it might as well be because you're goofing around with Richard Simmons!! But DLR beckons from 45 minutes away, so it must have been hard not to drag Scotty down there!!

Okay, Marie! Good to know you're hangin' in there!! Thank you!! I'm still trying to figure out things on this camera. Sometimes I think the symbols are too confusing. I thought I had figured out how to adjust the ISO/speed but then when I went in to do it, I didn't see the same symbols and diagrams that were shown in that stupid manual. So I must have done something wrong. I really want to master the ISO/speed thing because that will likely be the key to getting any kind of decent nighttime shots at all.

Sherry, I have been having problems if I use firefox or internet explorer but not today with google chrome. I figured it was disboards.

I still have a lot of problems with pages loading every other day or sometimes every other hour. I hate waiting 10 minutes for one single page to load.

I go through phases where I have trouble getting on almost every single thread. Then I don't have any trouble for a while. I assumed it was a heavy traffic issue on the DIS, but I don't think my old PC and its poor functioning is helping matters any!!

Ugh. I know what you mean. I had that trouble with Laurie's TR (not consistently, though - it was intermittent, and then it got worse towards the end) and Michele's TR, and my own TR - and pretty much any other thread that I follow, post on or read!! Pretty much anything that has any photos in it!!

It's the same with me and my laptop is barely a year old so I don't think that it is the cause. And it happens on my desktop too. So, I think it is the pictures fault.

And that's a shame because we can't have TR's without photos!! And we can't have photo threads without photos!! The photos are the backbones to the TR's!!....unless we all started making our pictures extra, extra tiny - but no one wants to see teeny tiny photos in TR's or in the photo threads or anything. We all like the big, glorious pictures that show us the details, or what exactly the food looked like or what exactly everyone in the group looked like at 6:00 a.m., or what the park looked like at 9 p.m., etc.!! Tiny photos just don't do any good for that sort of thing.

I know what you mean. But, honestly, m favorite part of the trip reports is the conversation part. I love the back and forth chatting.

 

[Belle Ella]

See, I don't think it has anything to do with pictures. Those threads load regular when everything is working, it just takes a minute for all the photos to how up. When the DIS is slow, it wont even open a thread that has zero photos in it.

 

[Sherry E]

Jazz, you don't think it is the photos which are the culprits? I still blame my old PC. But you're right - I have had those photo-less threads take ten minutes to open as well. Sooooooooo frsutrating.

Michele, you're right - the conversation in all the threads is always fun.

Especially when you get all of the personalities involved. Heck i followed Molly over to the WDW side for the conversation.

Sherry,

I love all your photos of The Grove/Farmers Market. I live a few minutes from there in the Mid Wilshire area. I love to meet friends at The Farmers Market and sit under the umbrellas and sip coffee. Those are fabulous pictures and gives everybody a really good idea how wonderful the place is....I am one of those people who was opposed to tearing down the market side and would have stood in front of any bulldozer who would have come to tear down the Farmers Market!!!

 

[deejdigsdis]

Just finished looking at all of your pictures. What a cool place to live by! I especially liked all the old fashioned-type places. The ice cream places and that cute little old gas station place. Ahhh...I really should have been born in the 1940s.

 

[Belle Ella]

Nope, I really don't think photos have anything to do with it - unless it's a case of the thread opening, but then taking forever to load. That's because of the photos beacause at least the page opened. Nut most of what happens to me are the 10 minutes for the page to change, period, which is just frustrating as all get out.
