The view from my "office"

[Cossie]

Better view from yesterday.

 

[Flashback]

Obligatory... don't think I need to say where these were taken....

 

[Flashback]

A sunset viewed from the Conrad Cairo. Disappeared into the haze in the end..... yes, that's another Hilton on the other side of the River Nile

I can't really say I recommend the Conrad, it's fairly dated, the rooms have a bit of a stale smoke smell (I have tried multiple rooms, I've just given up now!) even on supposed non-smoking floors and the breakfast buffet whilst adequate, is far below even many Hilton hotels I've stayed in!

So a few things to add ... there's another Hilton next door, and then another one just down the road too. The land of Hiltons...

Non-smoking floor? Hmmm.... then why are there used butts and ash in here?

Hope this does not cause you any grief @Flashback. Flights stopped over security scare

 

[Flashback]

Yes I know. My flight home has been cancelled... I have 1 week to wait.

There's always Egyptair ...

The place. Westernmost point on the westernmost road in North America. ‘Airport’ is grandiose; it’s just an airstrip.




The office. Not to be confused with an X-Trail. The X-Terra is substantially more heavy-duty, but of a semi-compact size.



The view.

I'd rather risk he situation than be downgraded to Y

 

[amaroo]

NNP at its best ..... after all those Southerners have left

Cracking day - plenty of dolphins and turtles on view

A terrifying first day at this office. Thirty pairs of eyes judging every bowl.

Terrifying in terms of whether it's your first time, your bowling techniques, dress code or "other"

Coffee and chocolate office. Mareeba, QLD.

Row 1...oh wait...it's still Y on 3K. Surprisingly, not terrible.

 

[Cossie]

They were lucky, no real damage, for once I'm actually happy with these photos!



Follow up this morning.

 

[Cossie]

Tonights meal in Bad Schwalbach, flammenkuchen, like a pizza, same same, but different. First time I've had one, won't be the last.

And the view across the road, it is of course a spa town. The 'Bad' part gives it away as well as the fact that they have a 'Kurhaus'.

My thinking space ..... mostly thinking about where to travel next. Japan won.... next month. Central Australian winter is perfect.

Even a grey morning is beautiful in the Shire. This view is looking across Shelley Beach towards Cronulla Point with Wanda Beach in the distance.

 

[Flashback]

Strange trend here of putting number plates on top of number plates. Fancy a car of Victorian origin? How about German?

 

[Cossie]

Interesting, I know a lot of people in that area keep the original plates if they can. I doubt very much that the Vic plate fits that scenario, though.
I collect plates, Egyptian ones are tightly controlled, I have an old series, but not the new sort.
Do you mind if I share this photo on another forum I belong to?
