The view from my "office"

[SYD]

Didn't you have a sticky beak with the mandatory J regalia: PJ, slippers and Glass of bubbly in hand?

I will after we takeoff!

Don’t you worry @SYD - sit back relax and enjoy
Have a great flight

I’m sure I will. Although so far no food menus!

But they do have White Lotus and *all* seasons of GOTs…..

I could not upload the short video of the drummers. That “photo” doesn’t appear when I try to attach a file. Attaching by URL is beyond my scope!

So here is the Temple by the Sea in Busan. It was Sunday and the last day of a 4-day public holiday. Expand the photo to see the crowds! I therefore decided not to walk all the way down to the temple. Not that having to climb back up all 108 stairs influenced my decision at all!

Watching the traffic and the amusing road rules in france for roundabouts is great fun!

We were going to hire a car just near here. The day before we took a look to work out how to do this around the Arc. We decided against it and travelled away from the Arc all the while the GPS was screaming at us to do a U turn.

Bah! It's great fun driving around the Arc! Loved it!

I had that experience in 2000. Found ourselves in a Peugeot diesel 30x in the inner lane.

Eventually just had to go for it.

In 1976 I bought a Citroen ex-factory and took delivery in a warehouse district just off the Seine. I was already large roundabout savvy from 2yrs living in UK and getting out of Paris without a map was fun.

I still have nightmares of arc from 1980!
3 Aussie lasses in a taxi, screaming. The taxi driver thought it was a hoot us freaking out from all the cars EVERYWHERE- no lanes, inches apart.

It was a challenge so I drove round it 4 times. Though only because of the first 3 goes I couldn't exit where I wanted to.

Very ”American“ reaction to roundabouts!

When the Toowong roundabout was first put in, one of the first interstate truckies to encounter it just drove straight over the middle.

Nice WA weeds that you are growing there.
In Tokyo the clouds are getting less so the view better.

Same here, plus on a few other large roundabouts in France. MrsK would fret, but I just kept doing laps, gradually moving outwards (like a local - indicator on smiling and waving) until I could duck off onto the exit I wanted.
