Aussies Blog About Roads Too!

G'day, y'all!!!

This morning, while surfing the British SABRE site, I found a link to an Australian road blog called SEQRoads (SEQ stands for Southeast Queensland, the state located in Australia's northeastern corner.) Please click here to see for yourself.

Now this is not the first time I've ever seen road photos from "down under", but I am truly fascinated how the Australians have taken a combination of European and North American road sign and design styles and amalgamated them into something that is uniquely their own. To see a prime example of Brisbane's roads, here's a link to a photo site maintained by SEQRoads blogmaster Trent.

As for the Aussies themselves, the vast majority my wife and I have ever met (primarily through Toastmasters) are some of the nicest, warmest folks you will ever encounter anywhere in the world. At some point in our lives, we would love to visit Australia... and when we do, you bet we're gonna "roadgeek" it up. Furthermore, it is my personal dream to drive on Australia's roads just to get the feeling of left-hand side driving. :)

Kudos to their blogmaster on an excellent blog and wonderful road pics from "down under".

Thanks to y'all for reading ours. Take care and have a great weekend.

P.S. If you are from Australia and would like a free official "Georgia Road Geek" magnet, then please e-mail your postal address to georgiaroadgeek at bellsouth dot net.
