Hehe -- I'm glad it's not just me.

I was sitting here in shock and awe for ages, but I wasn't too sure if this was becomingtoo much of a "siting looking at life instead of going out and living it" kind of thing. :o)

There's a strange sense of voyeurism about it. I can see houses I've walked past literally thousands of times from a completely new angle. Re-reading my first post about it I sound like a raving drunk lunatic -- I think I was high from peeking down on the world from satellites.

BMV -- I'm in the process now of roughly calculating just how many kilometres my train trip is every day. :o) I'll never EVER get tired of this...
