I wont be able to browse my forum, or respond to any emails inquiries from 4
december 2007 to 16 January 2008, as I will be at the end of the world in
Australia. I will carry a lot of gadget stuff with me (GPS, camera and
camcorder), in order to be able to map all pictures taken and video on Google
Map / Google Earth . So You will have enough to browse beginning of next year.
Below You can find the detailled planning of my trip, so you can imagine
yourself where I am week per week. Australia is so big, (14 times the size of France),
that I am forced to take airplanes (4 companies: Singapour Airlines, Quantas,
Virgin Blue and Cathay Pacific) from city to city....
I wont be able to update my internet page from beginning of december to 15 january as I will be in Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand (7 weeks in total)
Help by the famous "Lonely Planet Australia", my foot will held me to the most famous beautiful place.
I will of course have a lot of pictures and video to share with all of You.
Before this event I will try to deliver new Joomla! components versions based on your feedback.
New South Wales (abbreviated as NSW) is Australia's most populous state, located in the south-east of the country, north of Victoria and south of Queensland. It was founded in 1788 and originally comprised much of the Australian mainland, as well as New Zealand, Lord Howe Island and Norfolk Island. During the 19th century large areas were successively separated to form the British colonies of Tasmania, South Australia, Victoria, Queensland and New Zealand.
An inhabitant of New South Wales is referred to as a New South Welshman. New South Wales' largest city and capital is Sydney. from [WikiPedia]
