Time Zones = annoying

I've been having trouble with the time stamps on these posts. The entire time I've been posting, when I make a new post it tells me something weird; like it's nearly midnight, but my post is marked 4pm or something... when I alter the time manually, setting it a few hours ahead, it tells me it will schedule the post to be published when that time actually occurs...

So I finally figured out that for some weird reason this blog was set to Pacific time. (wtf It could at least be set to Dallas time or something sensible!) So I went in and switched it to GMT +2 (which is marked Jo'burg but at least that's the same country, right?) aaaaaaaaaand... ALL of my previous posts have had their time stamps changed yet again. Which is especially annoying in the case of those which got changed to entirely different dates!

I'm sorry. I'll soon have a chance to finalize all of these things. Get the missing days posts and photos uploaded, edit some of the ones that weren't quite polished, and do some closing posts too.

ATTENTION I might be changing the URL of this blog, from http://holidaysouthafrica.blogspot.com/ to... something else. Just in case I have other trips and want to just use the same blog. I don't know if this will affect those [four] of you who are officially subscribed, but it will definitely throw off anyone who has it bookmarked or enter the URL manually. Don't worry; I'll give you plenty of warning.

Didn't you know? Pacific Standard Time is the official time zone - it's the only time zone that matters. ;)
