    I shall pretend that I didn't hear that

    This is the nearest that I can get, my road is on the right which goes down to the River they did not bother to go down the road http://maps.google.co.nz/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=mahoe+road+ta umarunui&sll=-37.78374,171.850891&sspn=0.542675,1.031342&ie=UTF8 &hq=&hnear=Mahoe+Rd,+Taumarunui+3992&ll=-38.894139,175.343556&spn=0,359.983885&z=16&layer=c &cbll=-38.899977,175.341159&panoid=RkssCELPsP-bUqBuf28vGg&cbp=12,0,,0,5
    This is the entrance to our golf club, again not much detail and probably not of much interest to anyone

    I have been told that if you complain Google will remove (possible fuzz over) photos of your home. Has anyone tried this?

    Like your house Margaret. My neighbours had a sklp outside when we were filmed so our house looks like a tip.

    The car has a camera on top, which is the only way of telling what it is (as far as I know).

    Someone I know emailed google to complain about this. You can still see the house, but not from a direct view. Instead, you have to look 360 from his neighbors.

    3D is so ancient, as a child we watched the films at the local cinema, the real answer is IMHO Holography, now that will be something to see

    Holographic television? That would be interesting, although could be slightly off-putting

    Way cool. Here's one of the building we moved to. Must have been last Fall, as the building renovation has been completed on that part. Now they are working on the opposite side (where we are). We're up on the eighth floor. The building was originally build 52 years ago by the neice of George and Ira Gershwin. Leave it to us to instinctively find a building with musical roots!

    Have a walk around the area. It is just glorious now with everything in bloom. And oh - all those mansions! Just love walking our little Pez and meeting new peeps.
