Dinner with the family

So we all got together and had a family dinner out down in Palo Alto. My middle brother picked out the place and I headed down with my parents and met my oldest brother there as well. It was good to see them again and catch up a bit but the best part of the whole situation was that my oldest brother gave me a really good digital SLR camera. We were talking about taking photos and he realised I was still using a film camera and said "Well, I've got an old camera I don't use any more. You can have it if you want it." Its a Canon like my current film camera so my lense will work with it. Plus he gave me a bunch of stuff to go with it. An extra lense, a bunch of memory cards and batteries etc. The only thing I'll need to buy is a battery charger and a compact flash reader. So bottom line is that I've got a nice camera now and should be able to post pictures with much better resolution. The only problem is that its bigger and heavier than my old camera, but hopefully I'll take it out and get a bunch of good photos and post them.
