Back from Africa

[OntarioHunter]

I decided to post my recent trip to Africa in pdf installments. Easier to do the writeup ... and easier for disinterested to skip to the next post. We'll see how this works. Or if it works.
Edit: Some had trouble opening pdf file. So I have converted it to jpg image files. Scroll down.

Darn! What are you seeing when you click on it? Are you using a phone or computer? You may need to download Adobe pdf program/app but I can't imagine a computer or phone without it installed. My phone asks if I want to download, then after I click yes I'm prompted to open the file.

i am using an Ipad. I hit the attachment symbol which sends me to a page asking if i want to download which i hit and it sends me straight back to your post

I finally got chapter one………52 times

Nuts. The computer has stored the file somewhere. Strange that it's not asking if you want to open it. Look for an "files" icon on your desktop. I don't have an iPad so can't help much. I could send it to you as an email attachment. Maybe I should convert to jpg images and post the chapters that way? Let's see how that looks.

 

[OntarioHunter]

That works.

Thanks Ontario, a great start. Am eager to read chapter two. Thank you

 

[OntarioHunter]

Since no one has objected, I presume posting the chapters as jpg is preferable to pdf files. Here's chapter two.

Not going to lie, the format sucks just for the fact that its impossible to see the photos that go with it otherwise its good storytelling!

I liked the pdf.

Yes. I see that the photos are not coming out well when reformatted from pdf to jpg. Very good quality in pdf though. Here's chapter two pdf. Sorry for the delay. In church.

Agree. Reg web would be infinitely more viewable on the phone. Very interested in your trip.

Try turning the phone sideways to view pdf. That helps. The object is to leave the story of the African trip as something my grandson can keep. Incidentally, that fart is already putting the pressure on Papa to take him over next year. The lodge people also got wind of it (my daughter and owner's wife are on Facebook together). I'm feeling the heat. May have to go back to work to pay for it. Wonder where I put my male stripper outfit? Hope the moths haven't got to it.

I hope you posted the stripper comment whilst in church.
Great write ups so far! PDF is way easier for me, fyi

@OntarioHunter Enjoying following along, I have been wondering about this trip since the last time we talked.

 

[Happy Myles]

When is chapter three?

When is chapter three?

I'm working on it. Daughter is getting married this Saturday and I've been busy getting the church spruced up.

 

[Happy Myles]

Great news. Best wishes to all

 

[OntarioHunter]

Sorry for the delay. I've been under the weather a bit since returning. Antigen test says not COVID but I'm wondering if I should go in for pcr test.

Enjoy.
