PICTURE TIME III

Cleaning off the...



...digicam and the Nokia 6670 phone-cam of shots from the past week or so....





Collaborators in the conceptulization, writing, producing and taping

(as the on-air presentors) of a celebrity-gossip news show for an ISH

Englisch Class project, called "Hamburg 411," at our home last Sunday

following completion of the taping. From left: India Renziehausen,

Julie Schiller, Meg and Martina Chignell-Stapleton.







My latest desktop accessory to go with the wireless mouse, Amber

the (for the moment) unwired cat.





These are pics from Paris last week, where ACM hosted a meeting of the AC teams -- official challengers and the defender (Alinghi).





Always a beautiful site, especially at night.





Dawn Riley and Dyer Jones taking five after a

long day of meetings.





Brad Butterworth, Tamara Martyn and

Alexander Bitterlich enjoying the Cmas

lights on Les Champs-Elysées as we head

to dinner.





Marcus Hutchinson taking a picture in

front of the Canadian Embassy of the

"two Canadians in the AC" -- Peter Rush

(who really is a Canuck) and Peter Reggio,

who is an American but sometimes

masquerades as a Canadian when he stops

pretending he is Italian. ; )





A nice shot for Leslie in front of the

Canadian Embassy with the Eiffel Tower

in the background, also lit up specially

for Christmas.





Kimberly said Luigi and I needed to fatten up

Dyer, so we took him to a "simple"

lunch at a bistro near the hotel.





Snapped this from he cab window while

driving out to the convention center for

the Salon Nautique -- the famous Paris

Boat Show. There's now an ice rink underneath!





BMW ORACLE's "show boat" USA-61 looking

good as the show's main attraction outside the

front entrance of the show.





Inside, Jane Eagleson with Henry Lloyd co-

CEO Paul Strzelecki and Bertrand Pace at

the BMW-France sponsored booth moments

after the French PM held a press point there.





Jane and I with senior officials of BMW-France

before I dashed to the airport to fly back to

Hamburg.
