A few posts back I linked to a Youtube vid Cities at Night showing pics of cities taken from the International Space Station. There is now an article about the same thing with some new pics.

So I was disappointed when I watched the vid they didnt have Sydney in it, but that article has a link to this site - Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth with all the pics astronauts have taken of Earth.
I clicked on 'Find Photos' and chose the clickable map option. Shows you a map of the earth and I clicked the lil square closest to where I think Sydney was (was correct) then it lists all the photos taken of Sydney. I scrolled through the list till I found some that said SYDNEY AT NIGHT - SUCCESS:

WOO! Thanks NASA! That there's my city! :D

More spacey linkage - Galaxies gone wild - pics of merging galaxies taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. Seriously cool stuff!

She arrived yesterday. She SHOULD have arrived Tuesday, but the lamers who deliver packages in my local area keep taking them straight to the post office and saying they have left a postcard saying I have an item to pick up - but THEY DONT LEAVE A CARD! I am getting sick of it - this is the fourth package they have done this with!

Anyways her face up isnt what I asked for (the Yan looked more like what I wanted) but cant do much about it now. Was also supposed to get a wig and a skirt but it seems Dollfair forgot to put them in the box. *sigh*

Anyway - isnt she beautiful? I love her little face so much!! If I do end up saving enough to go to Canada - this is the doll who will be travelling with me!

Anyways a few extra pics:

Check out this cool pic of the Earth and Moon taken from Mars. The moon doesnt look that far away does it? haha
And it doesnt seem as small as you would think it seems compared to the Earth.

Pretty planet and pretty bit of rock dancing through space together. :D

My Twin B is here! Also the Tender Lahoo but really he isnt THAT different to the normal Lahoo and I dont have a cool enough pic to share.

Anyways she doesnt have a name yet but I am gonna take her to work tomorrow and try and do some quality bonding and see if I can come up with something. :D

More pics of the arrival can be seen here.

Had a busy weekend. Friday night my friends and I had dinner and did some more purikura which I am sending to the cast and crew of Supernatural. I may edit this post later to share the pics with you.

Saturday the family and I went down the coast, just past Nowra, for my aunties fiftieth birthday party. Was okay but omgawd are my relos breeding like rabbits or WHAT??? Little kids EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!1

On Sunday my sister-in-law wanted to go to the beach before we came home. I dont swim but I did have my doll Ella with me and I took some pics - this post includes two of them.
This second pic was a bit nerve racking to do as where she was standing was this lil rock about 30cm away from the edge of the water - so i had one foot on the rock and one of the shore trying to pose her so she wouldnt fall, then I had to jump back and shoot off a few shots before the breeze blew her over, PLUS she is make of pinky white french resin which LOOKS beautiful but has a tendency to yellow from direct exposure to sunlight so i was freaking about the amount of sunlight on her.

The whole time I was taking photos I had my umbrella with me. I must have looked pretty funny - the only person fully clothed, carrying a doll, camera and umbrella. Mum reckons I was a bit of s sideshow. Being half blind has its advantages I guess - I cant see when people are looking at me. hee!

I have been very tired the last few days. I guess because I didnt get my usual all day naps on the weekend. >.<

On Saturday my friends and I went out to lunch at a different yum cha place to our normal one. Afterwards we went and did some purikura.
The first round was klnda cool but we totally stuffed it when we were choosing the pics to print so we HAD to do a second round to make up for it. Here are the results of both:





We are silly bitches.
