This update is one that has been in my archives for way to long, a blast from the past. I had this update ready since November 8 of last year, so this update is almost a year overdue. And boy, what a year it was! So, what was my (SimCity) life back then?

  • I was still using the RHW v5.0.

  • DragFAR wasn't a "thing" yet...

  • NORO wasn't a "thing" yet...

  • My brother was still living at my house. Now he lives on his own ;)

  • I didn't have a driver's license back then. Got it in February.

  • The NAM 31 wasn't out yet. That came out in March, and boy, what a release it was...

  • The only thing we could do about SimCity 2013 was speculating...

  • I never boarded a plane back then. That happened last July, when I was visiting Sweden.

  • I still wasn't sure about finishing my Bachelor-degree of Civil Engineering back then, because I was three courses behind on schedule. Now, I've started with my Master-degree in Transport and Planning (how convenient!) after finishing my Bachelor-degree in the nominal time.

So, that's what's changed during the last 10 months. Quite a bit, don't you think?

But anyway, let's get back where we first start off with a coastal town, Landzicht. It's at the most southern tip of Imaginia. It has a small island off the coast with holiday homes. However, Landzicht doesn't have that spectacular beaches and therefore, the town looks pretty generic...

It does however, got this cute little houses along the country routes...

Here's the end of the B11, which leads right to Newlandervayne. It's only a 15 minute drive to there, so you're never too far away from the city...

So, we're heading north...

Next up is Kolderhof, a nice little scienic town just north of Hoogerhey. The most notable landmark is the Kolderhof Castle, built by the Nagaskians in the 16th Century. It offers a great view over the Konrade valley, so they could see an enemy coming from far away. Nowadays it's a big tourist attraction in the region.

Here we see the Kolderhof-tunnel on the new, redirected C40. Since there are no tunnels for the RHW-6C yet, I had to come up with this workaround...

Guess what? More parclos!

And to conclude this update, I finish with a scienic part of the C40...

Well, that's it for today. I hope you enjoyed this update ;)

Best,

Maarten

I likey, yet I can still see areas in need of improvement. 

It's always fun to look back on old pics.
