advanced technology


You think this is a shot of how wires used to look many years ago? No, these were probably put up many years ago but they still provide us with electricity and telephony today. Shot taken last Saturday.

You should see power lines in Avignon, they're everywhere along the facades, it's just frightening.

I went on the internet to read Kevin Rudd's full 29 minute speech. I saw a few short movies too. It was very moving. Oh how I wish I'd been there.

I got pretty emotional about it. I still feel so embedded in OZ affairs and culture...

Sorry if it's confusing, my last two paragraphs relate to Australia's WE SAY SORRY day of 13th Feb.

And hey, I took a shot pretty similar to yours in my Sydney suburb last year, except it had two kookaburras sitting on the wire. Never had a chance to post it, it's in my archives !

Spam comments deleted and removed forever. Thanks Marley.

You know Nathalie, it would've been fantastic if we were there. I wonder how it's doing in reality.
