Interesting NZ/Europe map
I was looking through my son's Children's Atlas and came across this picture of NZ superimposed on Europe (i.e. as if the globe had been flattened).
I thought it was quite interesting so have purloined it for your pleasure:
John.
PS To appease my guilt I'll list the publication:
Philip's Childrens Atlas by David and Jill Wright 1993 Reed International Books Limited ISBN 0 540 05723 1

Hi
Very interesting. Its good to see that the authors consider Europe to be upsidedown and not NZ. I always knew that we'll be on top of the world when we get there
