We’re back!
We actually landed from Barcelona in Montreal at 6 PM Friday night. We hit the ground literally running – on my end, recharging all batteries and emptying memory cards to prepare for a wedding bright and early the next day with a 6AM wakeup!!! Erwan, sharing a ridiculously brief 24 hours with his Fiancé after a month of absence before saying goodbye to her a

The day went by quite smoothly until it was time to leave and one of our dear participants decided to lock his keys inside his trunk! After a good hour of waiting around, we finally got a tow truck in to come and try to open up the car. Although we managed to lower the windows a good foot and a half, the volkswagen he had was completely electronic

Quick update! It’s midnight over here and we just spent our first day in Europe all over Belgium!!

The Nasty Clamps
Super excited over here because I just received a set of 6 nasty clamps and a nasty flag from Matt over at www.nastyclamps.com ! I was introduced to the Nasty clamps when I visited Udi over at DIYPhotography.net and we had a great time using them to clamp onto whatever was available. They were exceptionally useful as they were far lighter than tripods and were extremely versatile. I asked Matt if he would be interested in sponsoring a couple for our tour and he enthusiastically sent me a couple.

Erwan has a fever
Sad news of the day for the Von Wong team over here. Intrepid videographer Erwan has come down with a fever since our last angelic update. Unfortunately it looks like our poor Erwan has somewhat completely overworked himself so I think we may be cutting down a little on the video updates for a little while.
