A few panoramas

A few panoramas from Saipan. They're pretty big so only click on them if you and your internet connection are brave.

First up is a view of Saipan from the beach of Manigaha island.
Secondly is a look at Suicide cliff. Unfortunately it's difficult to get a good sense of scale with this picture-that cliff is HUGE.

Lastly, we have a view of the old Japanese airport as seen from the top of Suicide Cliff and looking out onto Banzai Cliff. It's sad that there's two of them, within only about a kilometer of each other. I've heard of the military strategy of defence in depth, but suicide in depth? That's just ridiculous.
