Aiko and her new Fuji z33 Waterproof digital camera!
OMG it's so cute! Look! I just got the Fuji z33 Waterproof digital camera.
It's called kiwi green and its super compact fits into my purse without taking up hardly any room!! I love that it comes in cool colours, Hawaiian Blue, Daredevil Black, Liquid Gold and Rock Chick Pink!! It's kinda like a camera that fits your personality and lifestyle!
I say lifestyle because this camera is also waterproof and perfect for all the elements, take it to the beach, on a hike, for a bike ride, anywhere and everywhere! I'm excited to use it when I head to Mexico this winter. It'll be great when I go snorkling!! Here fishy fishy fishes!! This camera can go into 3 meters of water for up to 2 hours, cool!! Perfect for both taking pictures and recording little videos!
Here's some other features of this camera:
2 H1N1 clinics open in Hamilton
H1N1 has caused a undeniable increase of volume at our hospitals, Dr's offices and clinics which is why the City of Hamilton will open 2 H1N1 assessment centres starting tomorrow.These will only be for those with flu like symptoms. There won't be any vaccines given at these clinics nor will anyone be treated for anything other than flu like symptoms.
Here is more information from the City of Hamilton:
The centres will be open for at least the next four weeks - possibly longer if needed. They are a collaborative effort of Hamilton Public Health Services, Hamilton Health Sciences, St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton and family physicians in the Hamilton community. They will be staffed by community physicians along with hospital nurses and support staff.

Let's be realistic most of us are going to eat Halloween candy anyway, so I wanted to help you choose the best treats for only 100 Calories!! (3 photos below)

And another one that everyone's talking about is of course ....Balloon Boy!! Here's the Canadian connection to this story....A Saskatoon company that makes remote-controlled airplanes and blimps is capitalizing on the hype surrounding six-year-old Falcon Heene with an official Balloon Boy Halloween costume kit, selling online for $19.99 - and it's flying off their virtual shelves.
