End of Voyage and a few Procedures

If you are having issues with getting the photographs to open, then read on, the solution is embedded herein along with some other stuff!

            I hope that you all have enjoyed your voyage with us as much as we have enjoyed having you all along. But I have to admit that sharing our stateroom bathroom with all of you did get a tad annoying at times. Next Voyage we will book two rooms so that those of you that wish to come along may have your own room, albeit shared with the rest of you!

            Just a word here about some tid-bits of housekeeping info.

            Quite a lot of you have subscribed to the E-Mail Blast kind of distribution. This is the one that just gets copied and pasted into your email Inbox.

You can see if this is the version that you are receiving by scrolling to the bottom and seeing if you can read any “Comments.” 

If you can, then you are getting the entire Blog Post.

If you can’t then you are missing a few (nonvital) aspects.

                        First, you cannot read any of the comments that you, or any of the other readers, have posted. You also cannot read my responses to them. I respond to each and every comment that is made, so If you are looking for a response to your contribution, then you need to do this next step:

                                    At the top left of every “Email” post you will see

                                                Read on blog or Reader.

                        All you need to do is click on the Read on Blog and it will magically transport you to the main Blog Site where you can see several other things.

                        First, at the bottom of every Post you will be able to see and read the Comments and their respective Responses.

                        Second, you will notice the Archives there. If you are a relatively new reader and would like to scrutinize our travels of the Past, then all you need to do is click on any Month of any Year and Presto! You will be conveyed back in time to Places Since Remembered and Traveled. This might be something that you’d want to do at say….  3AM when you’re having trouble sleeping, or you just want to be In the Know in case there is a random quiz in the future!

                        In any event, clicking on the Read on Blog feature gives a somewhat nicer version of the Post with a pleasant tan background and the body of the Post fits a little better on the page. This is also the route to take if you are one of the Readers that have some difficulty getting photos to appear (this is because some iPhones block the photo file from being loaded). So, clicking on Read on Blog will get you those photos. In the end, viewing on a laptop, desktop, or tablet always produces the best rendition. If you usually use your phone, then turning it on its side will sometimes give a better opportunity for the page to be laid out in front of you. You be the judge.

If any of this is confusing, please just email me at donhall930@gmail.com and I will help you out.

I hope that you can tell that I enjoy writing these Posts and illustrating them with some fun photos! And as much as I like these things, you need to know that all of my enjoyment comes from your enjoyment of experiencing places past and vistas yet to be realized! So fasten those Virtual Seatbelts because we’re not stopping any time soon!

Thanks for Travelling with us!

Love,

 Don and Paula
