    Have you ever been to an airshow?

    Air and Sea Show at Ft Lauderdale in 2002 ... just after 9-11 so US military were displaying anything and everything they had. One of the biggest ever. Since it was near a beach everything is flown parallel close to the beach so a much closer view than land-based airshows.

    Intermittent eHomeAffairs downtime

    INM in Mexico .. made an appointment in advance, they see you exactly at the appointment time, and 45 min later you have a freshly printed cedula (national id card) in your hand with full biometrics done, etc. Way more efficient than in SA as process has been decentralised.
