Godfrey,

Just like your friend, I've also wanted to travel the world on a bus
since I was a kid. I'm so envious! But then I saw the picture of the
gas pump... Eeeek!

I'd be happy to hear what you think of the Riccoh GXR (off-list if you
feel it's more appropriate). I'll be receiving one this week with the
28mm and 50mm modules to review. I've never used a Ricoh and I'm
curious given the underground cult status of the brand.

Happy travels!
