August-November 1999

29/11/99	We left Norway heading for Denmark. There are lots of palaces in Copenhagen. This photo is Frederiksborg Slot (castle), one of those palaces in a Copenhagen suburb. It is beautiful inside, but the environment -- a lake, trees, birds -- is also impressive. OK, the light was wrong in this photo, my fault as always... :-p (to be continued...) ***
25/11/99	At the end of Flam train, there is a cruise tour along the fjord. This is a picture of a typical view of fjord -- isn't it lovely? :-) It was very cold and a bit raining, so we spent most of the time in the cabin during the two hours of cruise though... :-p By the way, there is a website I would like to newly introduce you -- JAPAN APPLE WATCH, providing Apple products related information and some unique projects by Japanese Apple users. What is more, this page is written in English! :-p This page is not specialized in Duo or PowerBook though, you better check it out. ***
14/11/99	Flam train was going down towards the sea, so you would enjoy a full of magnificent valleys like this and falls. Isn't it beautiful? (This photo is too small, I know -- sorry! :-p) Then we will take a cruise along the fjord shore... (to be continued. :-p) I am going to see Elvis Costello & Steve Nieve tommorow!! :-) :-) :-) ***
12/11/99	You must see fjord when you go to Norway. It is beautiful and spectacular natural creation. In particular, I recommend to see the Sognefjord between Oslo and Bergen. This picture was taken from Flam train. It was already covered with snow! Yes, I went there of course... :-) ***
23/10/99	Hello... :-p It has been a while -- yes, I know. Since the server I connect to has changed its system, I did not have a proper access to the Internet. Nothing was wrong on my side, I believe. But the funny thing is, just after I upgraded Netscape from version 4.04 to 4.05, everything, even other internet applications, is back to normal now. (Thanks to your advice, Chunky-san!) What the hell was that??? Anyway, there is a bloody Windows desktop machine on my desk now. (Thanks again, Chunky-san!) What am I going to do with this... One good thing about it is that this ugly machine makes my lovely PB look even more beautiful. :-) ***
29/8/99	During the summer, a small electric fan is my best friend. :-p It refreshes me with lukewarm breeze. But, this often bothers my allergic nose, so it actually brows towards my PB (and my hands). I find this rather nice. It keeps my PB cool as well. I mean, the high temperature in PB sometimes causes troubles. I wonder what I would do in the winter... :-p And, I would like to introduce a brand-new website about Duo -- DuoTIME by Kobayashi-san (sorry, in Japanese only!). It is always good to know that we are not alone. :-p ***
16/8/99	Did you see the total eclipse? I have never seen any astronomical events, not even one single shooting star, so I went down south to witness this once in a lifetime show. It was cloudy, typical British wheather :-p, so the sun was not actually seen at all. But you must be there! Someone said that 99.5% eclipse was nothing, and it was true. As the sun was eclipsed, it got slightly darker though, the real darkness came only for two minutes of the totality. It was a strange but breathtaking moment. :-)
