photos, fly fishing, food, maps & cycling
Lockdown V2 allows fishing, as long as you stay within the locked down area, and stick to your nearest practical water.
I blended the locked down Local Government Areas, with a list of waters that have been stocked by Fisheries to create a quick reference map. It’s pretty up to date, too!
I can’t wait for the conspiracy theorists to get going on this one – Google have released Street View on their maps in Australia. Unlike earlier releases, this is a massive and dense coverage… amazing detail.
The face blurring technology is in full swing, and not very discriminate – blurring both the wheels on my car, as well as heaps of other vaguely face like things.
Anyway, I’m pleased I wasn’t imagining things when I spotted the Google car last March.
Regulars will know of my weakness for anything to do with maps. Some time ago, this manifested itself in the purchase of a Garmin eTrex Legend Cx. This device is brilliant, perfect for my needs… walking, riding or driving, and after a few hiccups I got it talking to my mac. The only thing I’ve never done is purchased a map.
Garmin charge a pack for their maps, and I’m sure they’re very good – especially for route finding and driving, but for my needs they are overkill in the city and not much good in the bush. So, I was on the lookout for alternatives.
