Day 13 Caribbean Vacation Xmas 2009

Slept in this morning till 9:30am and then got ready because we had signed up for a 10:00am digital camera seminar today. The seminar was about the history and development of the digital camera, and an explanation of the terminology associated with cameras, such as aperture, image sensors, ISO and a whole bunch of other terms that I had heard of but never knew what they meant. There was also a little bit about how to shoot better photos in different lighting conditions and adjustments to make to your camera settings to get the best photos.

After the seminar we went to the Caribbean Brunch Buffet that was set up in the Manhattan Restaurant. A very extravagant affair, with several ice sculptures and elegant displays of foods, desserts and table settings. There was a chocolate fountain which Karen dipped fresh fruit into.
