To me that sounds like a great route...lots of rich history along that path.  Plus you'll cruise right by many of us on your way south.   Grin



Yes, it seems like a thought to 'drop by' and maybe share a cold one... Grin Grin Grin

getting a bit curious about you folks  Wink

Nothing much happens during the winter season here, but this weekend saw us make a little trip to a foreign country. I e the 15 miles to Copenhagen, Denmark.  Grin Sunny and a very light breeze, just about enough to keep us moving at 3-4 knots.

Since I can´t get any pics in here, you could have a look at

Magnus -

BRRRRR!!!  Grin Cheesy

I like the furry hat - *that* looks warm! Grin

Below is the code you can use to insert pics from your Flickr account into your posts here:

Code:
[img]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2091/2258257726_006a38eb53.jpg?v=0[/img]

Just replace whatever is between the "image tags" ({img} and {/img}) with the URL of your photo (but use the squared-off/straight bracket, not the squiggly bracket I put into this sentence).

The above gets you this:



Those are some seriously massive stern cleats you have there! I like them! Smiley

I copied your code from above:

Code:
[img]http://www.flickr.com/photos/9218039@N06/1342780555/[/img]

And what that turns out to be is a URL, a link to the page itself, not *just* to the image.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/9218039@N06/1342780555/ is the page link.

h++p://farm2.static.flickr.c0m/1081/1342780555_73b805939d.jpg?v=0 is the actual photo address (except I made it so it wouldn't work). I got that by right-clicking on the image, and copying it's address, and puting that in between the {img} tags. I'm not sure what browser you are using, but that is how it works for Firefox.

Wow, at last!  Thanx again Capt'n.  Lesson learned. Smiley

-as a 'bonus' to the rest of you, who had to stand these multiple postings from an illiterate Viking, I'll share this cool picture from la Seine river in Paris. I was there a weekend  in Jan and believe it or not. This 'live-aboard barge' on the river has an Amphibie car on it's erhh, poop deck. A Renault Dauphine,

thats about the coolest tender I've seen in a loooong time  Wink

and by the way, it's Firefox I use, on a Mac

Grog to you all!

Great, glad you got it figured out! Smiley

I saw that pic at your Flickr, but didn't realize that that was an amphi-car. You're right, that *si* a very cool tender.  Grin I'd like to see how they launch it, though!

You wouldn't be speaking from a certain amount of experience, would you?

Swede-

If you're on a Mac, it's easy... type option-c to get ç or option-C to get Ç Smiley  On a PC you can use the keyboard viewer application and copy and paste it from that.  I don't remember what the application is called, but it basically allows you to see all the characters you can type.   Smiley

I am on a Mac - and way too often, wish I were on the boat more often - and you're right! thanks for the tip. worked on my swedish keyboard too. (which have the å and ä and ö) yup, 28 letters in the alphabet.... but the vikings did fine with only 23 or something IIRC  Wink
