Rivers in Arnhemland
Had dinner at Z & B's on Sunday. We spent the night on Google Earth: started off hunting for my pictures in Palm Beach, moved to WA to show Z my daughter's place, checked out Rottnest, fireworks for Australia Day seen from South Perth, moved to Uluru, Kakadu, Adelaide River (NT), Pine Gap, Norfolk Virginia (to check out the naval base), did the Milford track, thank's to Z's amazing skill in navigating valleys (the Clinton River and the Arthur), checked out the Nevada nuclear test site with its wonderful subsidence holes from underground tests, and crop circles in the Mid-West.
But the best was exploring the former Yugoslavia (now Montenegro), looking at roads, valleys, canyons, rivers, memorials, bridges, all of which had personal stories attached. (Attempting to repeat the same tourism in the following days, I wrecked my copy of Google Earth.)
