Sure someone on these boards can answer:)

Are there facilities on board "Journey" for our digi pictures to be transferred to a dvd/cd or similar? does the "photographer" have the necessary equipment?

Yes, each ship has a photo shop where you can copy your memory cards to a DVD/CD. My experience is they are expensive, $14.00 each. I take a couple of 2GB cards along, change them out as they fill up.

A small technical point: I don't think you can do it yourself; however, they will do it for you. To spread the risk of losing too many images, if one card should be corrupted, I carry a few smaller ones (256KB).

Hi

thanks for the response.

It has probably made up our minds to take our laptop with - so we can download pics etc ourselves etc.

We just had this idea to try for once to travel "light":o

Alternatively, if you own an Apple IPOD, you can buy a special connector for $29 and backup your digital photos to the IPOD. Apple produces a white adapter about the size of a thick Compact Flash card that connects to the iPod’s dock connector port and a USB cable plugged into your digital camera. This is a lot less bulky than carrying around a laptop.
