Movies
The Movies below offer a glimpse of the flavour of our trip. They are
all short ". MOV" clips that should play automatically from
your browser. Although they are of low resolution, the longest clip is
22.6 Mega-bytes and plays for 1 minute and 12 seconds, so it is a huge
file! A high speed
broadband internet connection is required. Files are not streamed and
must fully load first in order to play.
Please
turn your speakers "on" to enjoy the sounds. |
