PICTURES

I have taken two approaches to posting on the web my pictures of this trip: 

• Webshots.com: If you use this link, you will be able to see all the pictures I took. The pictures load fairly quickly and you can choose to view them in slide show format and in a variety of sizes. Regardless of the size you choose to view the pictures, you can right click on any of them and choose the "Save Picture As" (for Internet Explorer users) or "Save Image As" (for Netscape Navigator users) option, save the image to your computer and then display, use in slide shows, or print out the picture as you choose. I hereby give permission to anyone on the CGE trip to use these pictures. BTW, their is a guestbook connected with these pictures you can use to let everyone know you visited the site. There are a few albums, and most of the pictures are posted in chronological order of our trip.
• Ofoto.com: If you use this link, you will be able to see many of the pictures I took. The drawback of this site is that you have to sign in and the pictures are displayed in lower resolution. The benefit of this site is that the pictures load a bit more quickly, you can view them as a slide show, AND it is possible to order high resolution photographic prints.

MARK'S JOURNAL

Here is an edited version of the journal I kept on our trip. I cannot guarantee the accuracy of all the facts and numbers, but they are as good as it gets from the notes I took on my little PalmIII. (Also note that I am posting this journal for my family and church, so excuse some of the personal asides.)
