Cuba

My daughter reently spent 14 days in Cuba. She had the most wonderful time, staying with a family in Vinales who ran a casa. The Life style is so different to anything that she has experienced before amd the people are so poor.The family and the extended family all lived in the one house and the grandparents lived near by.

She was intending to stay for 4 days which turned into 9 days. She then travelled to Trindad with some othr backpackers where she stayed two nights before returning to Havan and then home. cant wait to see the photos

PODCASTS

I can see using Podcasts in a Library situation that you could make a recordng each week about whats happening at your library(storytime, lapsit etc,), book reviews, new books,happenings ofr book week, seniors week etc. The use is un ending.

I have practiced tagging and have found it very easy once I knew what to do.As I have an interest in gardening and am interested in reaerch into parkinsons disease I have saved tagged sites relating to these subjects.

Frankies Family update

In my first blog I mentioned what my family was up to . Since then we have had a football injury which will lead to an operation,one member has started a new job and is loving it and we have had a flying visit from the member who is overseas. This was a real bonus as we werent expecting this to happen.

I can see that this would be useful in a library situation when you have children coming in to look up the same information eg subjets for assignments, aboriginal studies, geography, english etc. Go through and tag all the sites relating to these subjects, then put in what you are looking for and it will sort for you.
