Winter 2010-2011 Vacation Trip 2011-02-04

Friday, February 04, 2011

A very lazy day. The weather outside is unsettled and the wind sometimes gusts through the anchorage and at other times there is a perfect calm. I spent the morning hours doing a bit of computer work for the previous days and cleaning up, then went for a little snorkel trip around the boat. The first thing I saw after taking picture of the cannon (or something that looks just like one) underneath the boat was a beautiful Spotted eagle ray, the first one I’d ever seen. After swimming around for a bit and coming back to see if the pictures I’d taken of the ray had turned out I looked at the clock on the wall and was surprised to see that is 14:00 already. This is definitely “Island Time” today and a good day of rest and relaxation.

Original hosting provider breaks my old website

My old hosting company, who will remain unnamed although their name starts with “go” and the end rhymes with “baddy”, changed their software with little notice and the original SV-ZANSHIN.COM site stopped working overnight.

Every. Single. Page.

So I’ve transitioned to another provider. These original pages have been migrated, but all the formatting and other features are gone and the will still contain numerous display issues and formatting anomalies.

The manual effort of conversion is too much and not worth the effort involved. Over 1000 blog diary pages like this one are going to remain in this condition. The pictures are full-scale, but won’t expand when clicked. But you can can copy them to view them in their original splendour.
