| Macs in the Mediterranean - 7 to 13 November 2004 |
| Adam and Tonya Engst |
| Adam, Tonya, and the TidBITS community Go Med in Gozo' |
|
Join Adam and Tonya for the learning holiday of a lifetime on the island of Gozo. TidBITS has been a virtual community since 1990 - it's about time we meet each other in person. Gozo is blessed with stunning beauty, rich history, and a pace of life which mind and body embrace as you step off the ferry. Gozo is home of the neolithic temples of Ggantija, more than one thousand years old when the Pyramids and Stonehenge were being built, where we will have a photo session in the afternoon light when fabulous photographs are unavoidable. Other sites we will visit on our photo safaris include the formidable medieval citadel which has views of the entire island, the Azure Window, Inland Sea, Calyso's Cave, and more. |

Legend says that Gozo is Homer's Ogygia, the island home of the nymph Calypso
with whom Odysseus fell in love. Odysseus was captivated by the beautiful Calypso for
seven years until Zeus sent Hermes skimming over the Mediterranean sea on magic sandals to
order his release. Calypso was not a happy gal but obliged, enabling Odysseus to set sail for
his Ithaca home on a makeshift raft. This time our Ithaca lad will have Tonya with him...Calypso will surely incur Tonya's wrath if she decides to keep him more than a week. Techie Tours will make sure they have return flight tickets and are not forced to return to their Ithaca home by raft. Morning workshop sessions will be followed by lunch and afternoon photo safaris to stunning locations all over Gozo. Morning workshops will include using iPhoto to make the most of the photo excursions, your Mac and digital camera. Organizing, editing, backups, keywords and albums, creating web pages, emailing, and printing will be covered. An event web page will be updated daily with photos from each day's photo excursion, personal post cards made, and those who want to create a memory book will be walked through the required steps. We will also have informal discussions about entirely unrelated topics every day - they could range from things like backup to email attachments to wireless networking to dealing with spam or whatever people are interested in. |
| Workshop attendees are encouraged to bring their partner as there are lots of interesting and enjoyable things to do and see while the "techie" attends the morning workshops. Partners are invited to join in the Photo Safaris to the many breathtaking spots we will be visiting... a different location every day. |
