Thanks for all the replies! I didn't expect them to come so quickly, so I haven't had a chance to reply to all of them. First of all, y'all are assuming that I'm American. :) Think further north. :P A few specifics below. || V On Tue, 22 Jun 2004 13:48:56 +0200, Moises Cambra wrote: > > > > 4) Would it be more economical to get flights on local > > carriers for getting around Europe, or taking the train?

I've been finding some cheap flights for London->Paris and Lisbon->London where we fly in and out, but the Paris->Malaga flights are in the range of $1000 GBP! But I think we will take the train from Malaga to Lisbon to get an idea of the scenery. This is all a bit different from travelling in Canada, where taking a car from Vancouver to Kelowna (~400km) is an easy day trip. > > 5) Are web cafes with the ability to upload pictures taken on > > our digital camera available and cheap? > > I think it would be slow and expensive to do it that way.

I haven't been in a web cafe around here lately, maybe that would be a good business opportunity... make a kiosk type computer running Linux with a touchscreen, compact flash reader and cd burner... :) I might also start shopping for the CF->cd burner but that would just be something else that I'd have to worry about carting around. If I understood the web cafe details, burning a CD costs about 1.5 euros, I'm not sure if that includes reading the CF card. Well within the budget! -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways. See http://www.piclist.com/#archives for details.
