I've just started Anacapri and I'm getting quite cross. THe first was the loading which the banner said would take several minutes. Several minutes, to me, is about 5 not the 25 it took. I could have had my shower and got dressed if I'd known it would take that long duh
Now I'm told to hurry to see the Doc. Can't find him and when I give in and look at the w/t I find I don't have to hurry but must pop into a load of shops.
OK, I know, I'm suffering from post Lost Crown blues cry


Has any one seen any little gray cells around as I think I've lost some? Reward for finder.

Only 25 mins? It took 45 minutes for me; I had a nap, a biscuit and a back massage while I was waiting. This game is SO different to The Lost Crown. AnaCapri is laidback and relaxed, and I think that's the point - the sights and scenery are beautiful, just take time and enjoy it all. grin

Yes, the loading of Anacapri was annoyingly slow and to make matters worse it took me several tries before it loaded without errors.

And no, it isn't The Lost Crown, lol.

So many games, so little time.

Rushes I know your right but if the game says hurry I try to hurry as I'm an obediant person( well maybe)

Hey 'old lady', take your time in Anacapri and smell ALL the roses! It is certainly nothing like The Lost Crown, different type of story altogether, but such a beautiful island to be 'stuck on' and you are going to do a lot of 'tramping around' from place A to place B (and you can use the 'map' for some of your jumping from one place to another) and hurrying in this game (Anacapri) is not necessary, 'everything waits for those who come'(not the other way around) grin Have a great time (vacation) whilst you are there...
Love, Betty Lou

Yes, your quite right the sceanary is wonderful. On trips to Spain and Italy in the heat ( I can feel the heat in this game ) and I just want to sit down with a cold beer and rest my weary feet.
I learning to use the map so it is easier.

Old Lady i playing now Lost Crown and Anacapri, is two different games.

Anacapri is a game for relaxing, with beautiful sceanary and great history. I must to say that in begin i had very difficulty with map, but after a time i learning use the map.

I live in Italy Toscana and this wekeend i go to Capri maybe i use this Map rotfl

Isn't it great that Maria can speak and write in more than one language.

I find Maria's posts and her phrases charming too MaG. I think most of us are envious of people that can speak and write in more than one language.

I'm thirding that! And I'll add that I too love to read Maria's posts. Don't worry, Maria. I always know what you're saying and you say it much clearer in English than I ever could in Italian! Just think - when the new Nancy Drew in Venice comes out, we'll be coming to you for help with the language. lol

Maria obviously you aren't making large errors,you just make our English charming for us.
We applaud you for the effort you make. It's difficult to translate exactly from one language to another.......impossible at times and you do a grand job.

Sue bravo bravo
