Twiggy, it's your kid's grand grand grand grand dad and mom here!

This morning, I finally rode my bike to Lake Alice, hoping to see the alligators. Well, I didn't see any but three dear turtles came to greet me.

My knees are very sore the whole day after the riding...

How many times do I have to risk my knees and go to the lake before I can see an alligator?

I was seeing this nice little building in the webcam so many times before I came to UF. Yet, it's in the opposite side of the lake... Perhaps I should learn to drive first. I don't know if I can really ride my bike there. I may need to risk to break my knees.

I'm sorry I'm having an out-of-focus photo here. I want to tell you how disappointing my digital camera can be. It's the blinding bright sun this morning and I couldn't see anything in the LCD screen. Yet I was trying to capture the moving turtles in the muddy water... And the camera just did no good with auto-focusing but there's no manual option.

Please let me know if there's any new digital camera that's designed to take photos. (Well, a camera is to be used for photo-taking. But please, be critical. They don't function.) I simply have no clue what they're for.
