Plugged in the name at the bottom of your post (booral pde allworth NSW aust. ) to Google Earth and it took me to a place called Forster. I then plugged in Karuah Valley and nothing, but Karuah by itself took me to a town of about 500 houses on a river. First time I have visited NSW on Google Earth. There are a lot of wide open spaces there huh?

Foster is the seat of local government.it moved from stroud 20yrs.
Great Lakes Council.
i noticed that when you put in addresses it gets you to the area.
Karuah is at the mouth of the river and is now a residential village with one working saw mill-fishing and oyster industry.
2 pubs and a RSL Club.
Allworth is north of karuah-50 homes.
i work in newcastle near the harbour and its not been pictured.

There is actually a real nice Google Earth image of Newcastle. You can see the entrance to the harbour and the different channels that go north from there. Nice views of The Junction, Bar Beach, Cooks Hill, Stockton, etc. etc. I also see some really nice beaches at Newcastle East and Port Hunter. Or are these deceiving and not all that nice afterall? Closest, best resoultion is at about 500 ft. There is absoutly nobody on the beach. I wonder what time of year and what time of day these images were taken? Traffic is not all that bad except that everyone is on the wrong side of the bloody road!!
