😩 Up since 5AM. Must. Sleep. More.
Today we’re finally driving around the island, in a few hours, and I need all the energy I can get.

😅 Friends finally made it. Got the car, and are now on their way over here. tinyMovieStar is thrilled!

@thedimpause Hahaha! I jumped as well, this afternoon. Took the phone back to the girls, and jumped. Swam to the beach. I might have seen them!

@maique
@thedimpause I saw a group at the beach today, with some older ones, getting into one of those paddle boats with the slides on them. Didn’t look long enough to see if they used the slide, or just went for a ride.

@maique
@thedimpause It is!! It’s the closest beach to where we’re staying as well! We were there for about an hour today, afternoon.

@maique
@thedimpause Thank you! I saw that! We’re waiting for some friends to start exploring the island (they’re the ones picking up the car), but their flight was cancelled today.
Hope you had a great time, seems like a brilliant place, from what we’ve seen so far.

@stupendousman The water is amazing, and so warm! Mediterranean Bahamas, that’s what we’re calling the island.

😳 I’m all for traveling light, but maybe take your phone with you. movieStar forgot hers, again, and we’re now boarding while trying to figure out how the phone will meet us in Menorca.

@gregmoore It’s pretty cool, yeah. Seems to be closed most of the time, but very nice place.

@gregmoore No camera, just the phone 😎

👖 First time I’m traveling, and no pants to be found on the backpack. We’re spending the week in shorts, in and out of the water, so why bother?
Also first time I’m taking a single watch! I must be getting crazy!

💺 Check-in has been made. Transfer has been booked.
I’ll pack tomorrow.

@maique
@dfj Hahahahaha. Thank you, and sorry.
BTW, you should really try the band on this one! The difference between plastic and rubber is incredible 🤣😂

@maique
@furstenberg Thank you 😊

@maique
@wbknl ER. As far as I know, just different packaging/labels by now. Same exact watch.
maique madeira
@maique
@otaviocc Yeah, the Apple one has been sitting on the table, for at least two months now. Probably more.

@maique
@odd It’s great. I have the M5610U, which is basically the same exact watch, but resin, no metal construction. It does everything you might need.
maique madeira
@maique
@otaviocc Yup! And I’ll get it just in time for the trip. I had my fingers crossed. A day later, and I’d only be able to pick it up in two weeks.

@maique
✅ Plans for today:
Guess which one I’m looking forward to?

@maique
@z428 Yeah. I’ve been trying Linux since I can remember, and can function with no worries on it, for almost everything. When it comes to editing, I still need Lightroom. Things have improved immensely, but the apps are not a good fit for me, I’m afraid.
And I (and my wife!) fondly remember a Pixel she had, the camera on that thing was pretty good. She liked it much better for photographing, and actually shot a ton more than she does now with her iPhone.

@maique
@z428 I’m at the stage where I actually need it for work (both shooting, and editing, with it), and it’s as close to perfection as it can get, in my opinion.
The fact that I can take care of all editing/sending, and shooting as well with quality fit for some assignments? I like this.
I don’t always agree with Apple, but the tool is good. Not sure I’d be able to find a suitable replacement elsewhere. One that would be as good, as comfortable, and mostly worry free.

@maique
@z428 Thanks. iPhone shot. It’s mostly the same, when the light is good and you’re not zoooooooming in. Mood added later 🤣

@maique
@crossingthethreshold I need one: Lightroom. That’s why I’d like to have the presets for that one, but almost $200 took care of making me forget about it.

@manton Wow! Added one today (still old method), after months (years?) without touching the navigation links. Could have waited a couple hours more, to try this.

🌡️ True to form, tinyMovieStar has some fever right before we leave. Vacation wouldn’t be vacation without a few visits to the local pharmacy.
