this place is almost visually pretty in an African sort of way (helped by the storm light I guess) - the reality, i know, isn't so pretty - BUT we want to see all of our (Google) Earth, so I hope they select this one, Joce. Nice work. Graham

My eye is drawn to the settlement every time we pass it. It is built up on both sides of a grubby stream in a colourful, higgledy-piggledy fashion. Thanks Graham. Regards, Joce

Thank you FJSS and steandeb. I am really pleased, if somewhat surprised, that Obama is pres. If nothing else he has been out of the US, he can read and he is not enthralled by war. He can only be an improvement. Regards, Joce
