Aussie Aerial Pics

[TWINKLE_TOES]

Neil,

Someone sent this link today and it has an "Aussie Aerial Pic" you may enjoy.
Look at the Australian Outback and the Trans-Siberian Rail Route.

Cool !!!

Yep there aint much out back here to see !!!

I'd be one of the real little dots on the East Cost about 1/4 of the way down from the pointy bit (Cape York)

Nearly as bright as your East Coast !!!!!

Cheers

Hey Neil/Al

That's a great photo, makes Perth look pretty lonely doesn't it.

Way cool!

I sent it to all of my friends and family for them to enjoy too.

Yep Perth is way over there on it's own.

Something like 80+% of our population lives on the East Coast in the Mid-Southern parts (As you can see)

I have yet to get to Perth, but have driven to the middle where those lonely lights are !

Great trip. 5500km in 2 weeks !!!!

Cheers

what kind of trees are those along the driveway?
good pics, tell your photographer she did fine!

Mr Creature ??

I think the palms along the driveway are "Cuban Royals". Sounds like a cigar hey??

They were there when we arrived and I'd say the big ones have been in since day 1 (10 years ago). They were being watererd by the grey water from the house but the system has since failed and they now fend for themselves. They look OK.

Cheers

And that's something you should be thankful for every day of your life! /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

I can't improve on what Mark has done, Neil, but if you really want a quiet neighborhood, I can take it a step further. See attached.

Mark, you have made me a very happy man. I can only dream !!!!!!

But Harv, well you have just gone that little extra bit, the little bit that confirms your star staus. You have made the value of my property substantial now !!!!

Now I really want beach front land, and enough area for a runway for a light plane /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif

Well done boys - Keep up the good work !!!!
