    Yeah, just its size is pretty impressive. It visits my city from time to time and its hard to miss when its there. You look out the window towards the bay and there is horizontal sky-scrapper floating on the water

    Amazing sight on what appears shallow waters very close to the beach. How deep is the water at that point?

    Well RC, I think you shouldn't be really....

    It is around 30*C here, and guess what, we have a christmas tree, but does it feel like christmas when 30*C outside?, no not at all, and that is not cool. I see all these christmas smilies and hear christmas music in town and all, but none of the christmas feeling comes back, I'm doing without christmas for 3 years....

    But ofcourse the cold weather has its disadvantages too, just like the warm weather.... I guess you haven't thought about that
