Freddie,
Are you running Windows XP? You can used Microsoft's Picture Viewer and Windows Explorer. Very simple. Call me (you have my phone number, I think or Dena can give it to you)after you and Katyusha run along the beach and I can walk you through it.
You can drag and drop the photos right to the CD using Explorer. The Windows Key+E opens Explorer then Use your mouse and drop and drag it to the CD. Microsoft Picture Editor allows you to do slideshows.
