It’s always easy to win an argument with a Sydneysider over whose city reigns supreme but is it going to our heads? Apparently so, according to this map recently posted on Strange Maps [1]. Victoria has expanded into every state including making Tasmania, a big football field. While I doubt we have the world’s tallest buildings or the most millionaires, I can probably agree on world’s biggest wombat, world’s biggest kangaroo and certainly the world’s hungriest rabbits. The rabbit infestation doesn’t seem to be a problem as it appears we have sent all the rabbits to NSW.

On a side note for map lovers, I have finally checked out Mapland, a store in Little Bourke street dedicated to maps. They are the oldest map shop in Australia; founded in 1870. The store is chock full of maps from around the world and is staffed by extremely knowledgeable and helpful people.
