The Weather Channel recently launched an island complex that is definitely worth a visit if you are a virtual sports enthusiast. Best of all, everything is completely free!

Big Pond, an Australian broadband provider, has a snazzy island complex that I recently found. As the map shows, there's a lot to see and the maps provide handy teleports to most of the locations. Don't miss the fireworks near the Harbor Bridge (and set the sun to midnight for a better view).

Train Tour

First up, the subway in Rothbard.



After a few minutes, the train arrived and I hopped on.



As far as I can tell, the train has a few stops. All I know is that when I emerged from the station, I was in a completely different area :)



Next I headed over to Knightsbridge, and checked out the Underground.



Though the entry was authentic, the subway cars were certainly not. I hopped aboard and rode the short track to the other end where I was ejected and had to walk back to the other end.


But as I was walking, the subway car came rumbling along and I was nearly roadkill!


The last stop on the train tour was Nakama. This island is divided into four distinctly different areas and the train is a way to get a good overview.
