Dewdrop Tree Tents
3:18 PM
automotive
I thought these were pretty cool! These dewdrop shaped Treetents were designed by Dutch sculptor and designer Dré Wapenaar. Originally designed to ease the lives of tree-sitting activists, they also make excellent treetop retreats for campers, kids, and anyone soothed by an evening spent softly swaying among the branches. Each beautifully formed droplet attaches directly to a tree trunk and is roomy enough to sleep a family of four.

Swimming Pool On The Water
11:15 PM

I believe this is in Germany. The pool was made from a barge, and floats on a river that is too polluted to swim in. It's called Badeschiff. Nifty, huh?

Rare Prehistoric Shark

The staff of a Japanese aquarium took pictures of a rare frilled shark, after it was discovered by local residents at Awashima Port in Shizuoka, southwest of Tokyo. This prehistoric shark is rarely seen alive as its natural habitat lies up to 1,280 metres (4,200 feet) deep under the sea.

The Ultimate Travel Bus
12:44 PM
automotive
This is a nice looking travel bus.
It has a nice interior!
Nifty, isn't it...
But wait! Where's the road?
Is this the view from the back door?
Actually, yes it is.
This bus is so cool that it practically walks on water!
Here it goes,
down the ramp and into the lake!
How cool is that?
And yes, it drives on land too.
Check out the big screen TV!
Wow!
It's the world's first luxury Amphibious Motor Coach/Yacht. It is combined with the best features of world class yachts and Motor Coaches in a revolutionary design and yes, as you can see, it does go in the water.
