the stuff tears are made of...

I was chatting to David DuChemin about our holiday and noted that I was travelling photographically light.  Only one camera body and one lens.  Well the camera survived the trip all the way except when we got Barcelona... went to take a shot and this is what greeted me!  *Big sobs and hysteria*

After treking around Barcelona trying to find a Servico Technica open, with no luck, we decided to wait to get to Madrid.  Luckily after a few false starts we find a lovely camera repair lady who not only fixes the lens but decides not to charge us.  So in true Aussie style we went and bought her a big box of choccies, which she initially didn't believe we were giving her.  She saved the trip!
