Today we lost the
internet. Felt very lost. Difficult to find out anything, or where anything is.
Sally and I needed to find a charger for her chair. A quick search on the
internet became a trawl through the yellow pages; every number outside the
local area had to be dialed through a phone card, which means entering a 21
figure number plus the number you want. To find out where somewhere is needs a
phone book, a gazetteer to find the rough area, a street directory and a map.
What happened to entering the address into Google Map? It took 3 hours to
locate a 110 volt charger and a replacement nebuliser. But having located them
we had a lovely drive south through Haines
City to Lake.
Wales. Then
across to Winter Garden. We also want to buy mobile phones, so we swung past Lakeland,
where there is a Verizon Shop. It’s called the Lakeland District because there
are a lot of lakes! There was some very lovely scenery; we saw lots of
different birds, egrets, small herons, large herons (grey?) and storks
