Couple tips (photos, comments)

How do I set the default photo album shown in the Photos module on my space? The last album you selected in Edit Mode becomes the default album.  (Not very intuitive!)   Also: How to get to the next page of comments (if a post has a lot of comments). There's a Next link at the top of the comments pane which will take you to the next page.

How we got to Australia

My family and I came out to Australia from India as passengers on the cargo vessel Canara MV (3)

She initially carried 24 passengers which was reduced to 12 in 1947 (the year I was born) and to 9 later...not sure when. The Mackenzie clan made up nearly half the passenger list!
