Our world from up above

Those yet to visit Central Oz, have had a taste of what to expect in the last couple of days after our spontaneous dust storm. The iron rich particles that make Ayers Rock such a presence in Central Oz made its way over to the east side with the heavy winds.

Oh to be watching from up above at the swirling red storm making its way across Australia & supposedly across to New Zealand right as we speak, what a sight!

Speaking of watching from up above...it's heartening to know that the Ozone hole actually is shrinking! So says the 'Sydney Morning Herald'
YAY for humankind! Keep up the good work & let's not get complacent now!
