Changes

I've been a little bereft on posts recently. Mainly because I've been lazy about writing them, but they are all being backdated appropriately, so keep on checking.

I've been spending time on doing a little bit of web design, and I sat and passed an exam. I'm now a Microsoft Certified Information Technology Professional: Systems Administrator (MCITP:SA) to add to my mcsa certification, which means I've got something to show at least for the past few months. Considering I took the exam on the spur of the minute, having not done heaps of study for it, I'm quite pleased that I passed. It's been a while since I did the mcsa course.

travel insurance pays out finally!

So before we left, we arranged our travel insurance for a year with Down under insurance. It's essential, ya know? and we figured, if we only need it once, it's worth it, so we paid for the extra "no-excess" thinggy. Well, it came in handy. When we think about it, it was even relatively cheap.

Thank you Accor.

This is a little offtrack - I know we still have lots to post about our Cruisaversarymoon, but this needs a side track.

Thanks to Accor hotels, we've booked something like 40 of our 59 nights over the Summer, at an Average cost of $AUD74 per night.

Of wireless and hotels

Call me pedantic, but finding wireless at hotels in Italy is proving to be a bit of a challenge.
