Mount Eden in New Zealand

In no particular order, I decided to embed some of the locations I have seen so far over the years. These are not all of them, as some of the places have not been digitised as yet etc. I think this is better than showing someone a photo with a smiling face of where you have travelled to. Pretty much, these scenes are more or less exact replicas of the places. Very good thing this VR photos, credits to the 360 cities for the images. The quality is stunning.

After a day of heavy heavy heavy rain, decided to snap this one from a vantage point in this town, due to the cyclone warning in this area. As I type this now, the rain is coming in hard again and a hard wind is all around, it's hard to say if it will settle soon...

Here is the Christmas Toady, this is the new way of delivering the presents to the flood zones....

BroadwaynullCnullAlcatraz in san-francisco-bay-area

Basically, I was sitting in my cube looking through the internet 360 cities the other night, when I found an interesting panoramic taken of the famous Alcatraz prison, when I realised that the living conditions were almost superior, or in some cases actually are superior to some of the jobs facilities I've had in past. In general the cleanliness definatly outranks the hygene standards. Of course, I suppose the obvious bad thing is that you can't really leave until the time is spent. It is intersting how clean the place is. Even the prisons are a business nowadays i suppose.

This horrible stick insect was stuck to the wall yesterday evening. I hate stuff like this and when it's wet here you see all sort of ill stuff like this.

After seeing that this area was issued a severe weather warning, as per cyclone, I decided to take a photo from a vantage point. It seems possible that either a cyclone or flood may prevail in Townsville on Christmas day. The main highways are already flooded aka The Bruce Highway in certain parts. It would be hard to exit this area in a proper emergency in my opinion, given basic human nature to panic and fly off in any car, pandemonium would quickly ensue...
