These are now in order. If there are some concerns about those of you paying shipping to overseas, let me know and maybe we can work out a different order. Does the order look at all logical? Mike should be getting the camera any time now and can take some time to look it over. Also, let me know if I have missed anyone or if there might be some disagreement with the rules. I also take Sangria Senorial, as well as chocolate.  Mike Kovaks--Canada mitspooner--Canada Nancy B--Canada GeneW--Canada Dan Wilkin--Canada Philip--Canada Sandeha--UK Bueh--Germany Ole--Norway John R--Australia Wayne--Australia Julio1fer--Uruguay mitzli--Mexico J.Ed Baker--New York Klug--Maryland ImageMaker--North Carolina CE--Arkansas Byuphoto--La. Jadedoto--Kentuky KirkT--Michigan BHudson--Iowa BurninFilm--Kansas r-brian--NM Mike Carmack--Colorado Major Black--California David Richert--Hawaii Me--Oregon For a grand total of 20+ participants. Did I miss anyone? If you do not see your name on the list, and would like to participate, let me know. Recruit neighbors, friends, family, street urchins, high ranking politicians, etc. to join up. I will keep updating until the thing starts to move out from Canada. Thank you everyone.

Will Hagar be traveling Down Under? If so, I'd love to be involved. Perhaps if there are a couple of others here interested we can share the postage costs (I'm in Sydney). I'll PM you my address anyway

I'm up for it, if you all are. I think we probably have about two more weeks to gather a few more participants so spread the word and we will add that part of the leg.
I now have everyones address who has asked to participate so far. Thank you all and keep spreading the word.
Mike

BTW Mike, you should also let people know about the manual for the Ansco Viking. Not all may be familiar with using folding 6x9 cameras. E.g., a few people wrote me about how to use "Oleg", one of the other travelling cameras. http://www.butkus.org/chinon/ansco_viking/ansco_viking-splash.htmActually, I will print the PDF version and stick it in the box with the camera. The camera should enjoy itself at "Mike's frozen north classic camera spa", as somebody put it LOL.

Thanks Mike for including the manual. I just got Hagar's backup should we need it. I think we are good to go, as soon as a few more folks join up.

I think maybe this order should be changed, and that Philip should be after Gene W, since Philip lives in Newfoundland, and Mike K., Gene W., and me all live fairly close together. It doesn't make sense geographically to have the camera go all the way to Philip from Mike K., then all the way back to me, then Gene W., then all the way over to the U.K. Do you agree?
Mike Kovaks--Canada Philip--Canada, Nancy B--Canada GeneW--Canada
Should be:
Mike Kovacs Nancy B Gene W Philip
... then on to Sandeha.

Nancy,
Thanks for the heads up. I changed the list so that it reflects your suggestions.

So, if I'm reading this correctly, Hagar will be touring Canada, then off to UK and Europe before coming to the USA?
