It was fantastic on the plane. Although I admit that I slept during takeoffs and didn't even crack open a magazine, but that was okay because I finished one book and started the next. All thanks to being stuck on the tarmac at LAX for an hour which resulted in rebooking my connection in DWF (that's the Dallas airport code y'all). So it was a glorious day for the iPad.
This morning I grabbed the trusty iPad and headed out for my business meetings. I took notes, showed my staff some PDF files which saved me from paper waste. All was glorious. My Eco champion attitude continued, and I took the half mile walk back to my Fort Lauderdale hotel. Once I returned to my room, I sent off a dozen emails. This was cause for a celebratory mojito at the marina bar.
I found a lovely spot at the bar and decided to take a reading break with drink in hand. But it wasn't quite working, my iPad was turning into a mirror. I tried moving to a few different places. I almost found one awkward position, but I kept seeing my face or the sky reflected in the iPad. I finally gave up trying to read, and took this picture instead. No trick photography. I don't even know how to use Photoshop; I’m more of an excel nerd. It does makes for a pretty awesome picture, so not a total loss.
awesome, awesome picture.
ReplyDeletealso, real books don't have a battery life.
Though, I have been enjoying highlighting ebooks lately. It's kind of fun to mark a passage that I like or a sentence and then getting to jump right to it. I can even highlight library books. I've also been enjoying the convenience of borrowing ebooks from the library. It may be my favorite aspect of my Kindle Fire currently.
