Rob has been busy. These are first passes without modifications to the map data files. So the raillines that run over water will be tweaked to keep them dry.

Speaking of dry, this is one big beach!

It's not really clear to me where one desert ends and the next one starts. Sand is sand, isn't it?

The northern part of this was shown before. Does anyone have names for the unlabelled rivers?

No, no, we are not done yet! New hebrides, New Caledonia, and Fiji. I have always had trouble mentally placing these in the South Pacific.

Moving south - to northern New Zealand.

New Zealand - North Island.
A couple of years ago our chorus performed in New Zealand. We took a bus tour from Auckland to Wellington that went by Lake Taupo and Mt Orodruin - one brave soul (fool) did a bunge jump somewhere along that route (the high point of the trip for him). I learned that there are a lot of different types of sheep, and temporaily sated my cravings for lamb (curry, sandwiches, entree avec mint jelly).

New Zealand - South Island. The chorus performed in Christchurch too and many members took a tour of the south island (I headed home to Honolulu).

15th and last in series, an overview of the new map segment completed by Rob. Patrice will review and correct the map data (he probably is doing that already). If you have comments, this would be a very good time to make them.

I was gonna ask where's Mordor but as always you're a step ahead of us! If that gets edited out it could make a nice easter egg...

What do you mean with "if that gets edited" ?
I intended this label (Mount Doom) to be an Easter Egg, isn't it one ?? [&:]

He probably is expecting something that is hard to see, but if "clicked on" reveals a more elaborate image.
But I have no time for that, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late.

Just a fun idea. I just figured those two fun labels might be for the draft version only, I wouldn't spend time on it either. Easter Eggs refer to things in software or DVD's that are a little bit hidden.
