Emne: [BoundaryPoint] new tripoint photos




Hi Folks,

Here are two pictures of the tripoint of Greece, Albania, and Macedonia (or
as the Greeks like to call it ‘so-called Macedonia’). In the second picture
you can see our waves--our boat driver was willing to speed around the buoy,
but he wouldn’t let me touch the monument or take a picture of the top. In
photo 1 it almost looks like we can see orientation marks where the border
shifts at an angle. In any case the buoy is marked as 0. The third picture
is the last land border marker of Greece and Albania on Lake Prespa, which
runs at a slight angle to the left—hence I’m Albanian water taking this
picture.

Sorry about quality—it was raining.

Enjoy,

Dallen
