    Yep, not a common sight in NZ and certainly none that I have seen with such an interesting fa?ade.

    Got plenty of bowling greens around though - anyone know what they are ?

      Got one of those closer to me than a bowling alley. Not as big a sport as it once was. I see more people playing bocce around the city.......

        Yep, like a big pool table made of grass.

            OK, got your bowling alley:



            No fancy airplane on it but it's a bowling alley.


            And the next tag, a driving range.



            I know, crappy picture. My cell phone camera forgot how to focus. Really annoying phone anyway. You can see the big balls out on the ice, that's the targets color coded for how far you hit it. The little white things on the ice are golf balls. I bet they go a long way on the ice, especially in the thin air around here.
            I can find a better camera and do it again if you wish but the next tag is a driving range.

              It's located on Airport Drive right down the street from the Sanford/Orlando airport. Bowling is really big in the states. The big thing now is bowling with two hands or cheating as I call it.

              Check out Kings in Orlando down in the tourist area, 60 lanes. http://kingsbowlamerica.com/orlando/
              They have something you may find familiar.

                  Awesome timing, if the tag holds out, the Central Florida Fair starts next Thursday.

                    A fair ground not too far from here, but as of now no bike to go get the tag with.

                        Next tag is one we've done before, a military tank:

                            Ok...quick turn around...on tank!





                            Next tag is a Masonic Hall/lodge...because I don't know if there are lots of these around, in the spirit of not as many people being able to get out in the cold (you yanks really need to move to where it's warmer)...I will accept a Loin"s Lodge or a Shriner's lodge.

                              Local Masonic center. Couldn't grab the picture that I wanted downtown was busy today and they had something going on there.




                              Next tag is a fire-rescue of a large vehicle, plane, train or ship etc... even better if you can get it in use.

                              Here's our local Airport training area.

                                Seems that tags a bit tough, lets say any fire- rescue training area. If thats not grabbed I'll try and get out and grab a new tag.
