“Bombs away!”

In contemporary Catholic liturgy, non-Catholics may participate in communion by signaling with this gesture, hands over heart, receiving a blessing from the priest instead of the eucharist.

I carry two cameras, both Panasonic: a LUMIX LX60, a superzoom that I just use for birds and the like; and for everything else I use an LX10. It’s really great for the way I use it. Fits easily in my jersey pocket, fast, wide angle, good in low light conditions. I’ve been using this series for at least a decade, upgrading to a newer model when I break or wear the old one out. This one is the best yet.

Get well, both of you!!

What kind of a camera do you use? We bought Keith a new one this year, but so far he isn’t very happy with it.

Thanks, Keith. I’ve never heard of a bearing line before, and will have to look it up. Actually, we’d routed almost exactly to the room, but there was no signage to confirm anything and the address listed for the apartment was incomplete and didn’t include the street number. None of these little alleys had street names either, so we did some wandering around looking for clues before finally giving up and phoning.

Hi Scott - my solution to finding our accommodation is to use a bearing line. This works well for us given we typically book hotels which we can locate on the app we use. This might not be so easy when booking an apartment. I use Galileo (now called Guru) which allows you to place a bearing line to your Hotel or destination point. So at any point in our ride I can see the bearing line and the distance away. As we get closer to the hotel I can pick the best route to get there by viewing the bearing line. I hope I explained that properly. Could you do with Rwgps which I believe you use.

Might not have been one of your most exciting rides, but I loved the mix of countryside and village streets in the video. As always, great choice of music.

I had a dorm room in which I built a loft. This reminds me of it a lot.

With directions like this you probably knew the staircase was going to be a problem as well.
