April 24th 2010 – Pictures recovered!!!

You might have read the previous post, describing our first day in KSA, in which I had to report my frustration for the complete loss of all the pictures taken during the day. I finished the post, called home, switched off my mac and got ready to go to sleep full of anger for the precious material destroyed.
But I'm not the give-up and complain kind of person, and I have a profound faith on the infinite resources of the Internet (and the power of my MacBook Pro, also); so I switched it on again and started googling "compact flash recovery mac" and similar keywords, until I got into "Disk Doctors Photo Recovery" for Mac. Downloaded the demo version and .... magic! It was able to find all the files hidden in the card!! Now I just had to buy the full version (the benefit is worth the 65,48 € they charge for the software: God bless on-line shopping and credit cards), and there we are. All pictures again on the hard disk, ready to be uploaded ... for your advantage and our continuing fun and witness effort.

  1. question 1) what's on Mr. Belliato's tie?
    question 2) you talked about women's condition in Arabia, did you asked also about an hypotetical female engineer coming with you? how likely is her to be stoned?
