Elf swimming (and GIP)

Jul 12, 2007 08:34

I have now downloaded all the nifty stuff I've been saving in my nifty phone (yay, Husband's Bluetooth connector toy!) and so I have lovely new icons from the photos in the phone AND have saved the little movies of Elf swimming to my AOL space.

[Note of apology: These directions are intended to reach the least tech-savvy of my FL, and I know that many of you need no assistance at all.]
-In order to see this, you'll have to go to this site: http://members.aol.com/amilynh/
-You will see a file elfswim2.mpeg
-Right click on the file and save to your hard drive
-Double click on it where it's saved on your hard drive
-Play (it works on my computer in Windows Media Player, but is being futzy--I'd be glad to upload it differently if someone knows how and wants to re-save it as a new format)
-If the above doesn't work, you can try the same steps at another location: http://www.iingaartist.com/other/2007/elfswim2.mpeg

What you will see is a tiny, pixilated clip (15 seconds) of Elf swimming. If you wait through the second half, you'll see her kicking effectively while actually doing a breast-stroke movement with her arms twice and then using the arms to help her stand when she comes up for air.

This clip is from the day when she spontaneously just SWAM last Friday. Before that day she had NEVER done this (though there had been attempts at instruction/guidance) and she had been mostly unwilling to put her face in the water until just this past month.

I'm SO PROUD!

pride, swimming, elf
