Yosemite camping trip

I'm leaving tomorrow late afternoon

Time to take new pictures and play with my umm... "new" lens. Haven't used it since I bought it over a month ago.

When was Thanksgiving for you guys? I guess it was this weekend...Happy Turkey to you Yanks!!! Hahahaha!!! Our Thanksgiving was on October the 9th. Hope y'all had a nice long weekend! I know I did. Saw my girlfriend's friend (A part-time TVB actress) off at the airport. She was heading back to HK on Friday night. Went to a toy show on Sunday (Yes...Yes...Mikey...Save my $$$) and bought some more Star Wars and Doctor Who toys!

And got to finish off my 2006 holidays from work on Monday and yesterday.

Here are some pics of myself and my girlfriend's friends to share with you guys (Taken on November 14th at Canyon Creek restaurant in Scarborough, Ontario)...The girl I am with (Left of myself) is the TVB girl. She came back to the GTA specifically for a Guns 'N Roses and a Sebastian Bach concert. She said that her other mission was to get a bag of pickle chips for her friend/fellow actress Bernice Liu!

Eddy: No, I don't camp much (do a LOT more snowboarding, however.) Just came back from Yosemite -- we cut the trip short because all the places we wanted to go to were closed

Didn't shoot that many pics this time around

I also have the 17-55mm lens now and yes... $$$$!

Sammi: Target had a sale on StarWars toys the other day and I was thinking about telling you about it... but then I thought, nah... save some money bro

The TVB actress looks nice.

Hey bro! Thanks for the heads up with Target, but there are no such stores yet north of the border...Sucks! Heard we've got some of our 'snowtroopers' heading south for the Target exclusive Imperial Shuttle. I need one bad but I don't think I will be heading south anytime soon! Last time I was in Niagara Falls, my girl and I headed to Fort Erie...We noticed the traffic along the bridge heading south...no way!!!

opps sorrry sammi, it is outside of that north border (by the outlet)

rockstar: didn't know you had a 17-55mm....... i like mine but i liked my 17-85mm more tho.

oh yeah, i also bought and returned some L lens, they are sooooo overrated !!!!

Yeah...Don't encourage me!!! Hahahaha!!!

Although...Maybe will save some $$$ for that SD700 Canon you guys have been suggesting. We'll see what kind of a price drop occurs after Christmas with Boxing Week. I forgot...Does the U.S. have Boxing Day/Week? Or is it a British thingy again???

SaMmiLover: Boxing Day? I've heard of it but I think it's a British thing...

Eddy: Oh wait...I do have the 17-55mm. I had the 17-85mm.

My bad.

Post by **Mikey_** » Sun Nov 26, 2006 10:15 pm

I think Boxing Day is a British thing.

Sammi: If you can afford it, get the successor to the SD700: the SD900

Check http://www.steves-digicams.com for reviews, whenever he has a chance to get to it.

I miss my 17-40mm, but am happy with the 17-55mm.
