The view from my "office"

[Pushka]

You post some interesting images of SA. Might be a worthwhile destination before I think about venturing back overseas. A tester.

Yorke Peninsula. So many wonderful things to see. Stay at Clare for a couple of nights for wineries then across the top and down into Yorkes. Port Vincent on east side, down the toe then back up to Kadina, Moonta and Cornish settlement and mines, Wallaroo then Port Broughton. Just 1hr 50 mins from Adelaide CBD.

We all know who this is.
It's a warm day here in Paris, there are probably a couple of thousand people in the room and only a few of us used deodorant.

Basically you could cut the fetid air with a knife.

It has been a busy couple of weeks overhead in Port Macquarie. There are some great photographers who spend a bit of time at the Lighthouse. With permission from Brett Hall the photographer I thought I would post these great shots

Transport Heritage NSW Expo at Central Station


3526 (a nanny 4-6-0) first in service in 1917

3801 (4-6-2 Pacific) first in service in 1943 (although originally in non-descript war-time grey, but now resplendent in green) alongside 4201 an EMD Diesel from 1955.

6029 a Garrett, two locomotives in one (4-8-4+4-8-4), originally designed for freight.

An American End-Platform style Pullman car from around 1900.

Set F1, a restored suburban set often dubbed red-rattlers in their hey-day.

Light, colour, motion ...

It's usually three to five degrees hotter up here. Remember even though it's beach on one side, it's desert on the other.

just checked and it was about the same but a few degrees cooler now and overnight and that often makes a difference. Enjoy

So - the newspapers said KISS were miming. Your judgement?!

When the tide is just right, my morning walk office along the foreshore has two rocks positioned in a way that makes them look like a crocodile just below the surface.

Especially so when the ripples extend outward from the rocks as seen in this pic from last week.

Sandgate, Queensland

Occasionally you’ll see people point in surprise… edge closer and breathe a sigh of relief.

Was it KISS?

I didn’t get there early enough to watch, I couldn’t tell from my vantage point anyway.

Something wrong with our Bangkok view today. Surely the clouds are meant to be grey.

Better that than do a Meatloaf.
