Lesotho is one of the most unique countries on the planet. It’s the southernmost landlocked country, the largest country that’s entirely surrounded by another country, and the highest country on Earth. Yet, it doesn’t really show up on too many people’s radar. With the arrival of Google Street View imagery this month to Lesotho, it’s time to shed some light on the world’s largest enclave.

Were there some events going on or is that the normal daily traffic in New York?
I’d say that “that is the normal traffic”; remember that’s the financial district down there, and from the building shadows, it appears to still be morning.
I can see the footprints of the towers. Sacred soil.
Actually, it looks like it’s just a little congestion from the reconstruction. If you look at the cross-streets, there’s minimal traffic, and if you go uptown a couple blocks, there really aren’t any cars backed up at the traffic lights. In rush hour, the city can go into complete gridlock; it’s gonna sound like an exaggeration, but quite honestly sometimes it’s literally taken me 2 hours to cross the couple miles from Brooklyn to New Jersey.
i think someone should find roswell new mexico like the umm ufo landing or whatever
Are there sat pics form when the towers were still there? A comparison would be interesting.
I’ve never been there before cuz I live in Southeast Asia.. but after seeing this, I promise I will go..
But.. I posted this…
Indeed you did Christian, I just didn’t think anyone needed to be thanked for this one. Hope you understand.
