Stars

Another interesting thing;
The stars are all upside down, Orion is lying on the wrong side, there is no Southern Cross or false cross and all of the other constellations I know are in the wrong place. But the thing that disappoints is that they are so faded. I thought that being in the middle of nowhere they would be really bright, but no they are not - guess I was spoiled at LAC, going out into the backyard at night was glorious - like looking at Heaven through a black velvet cloth that was full of holes. The night skies were spectacular, crisp and blaring. Here they are like old faded maiden aunts that sit quietly in the corner doing tapestry - almost unnoticeable.
