Micronesia Marshall Islands

Island of Ujae (click to enlarge)
What a beautiful place to live... The air field on the island (runs East/ West) was probably built during WW 11. If you look just to the right of the marker you can see what remains of the runway that runs roughly North/ South. Looking to the left of the marker is a small circular clearing, my guess it's probably what remains of the control tower. What's great about this island, if your a pilot with an aircraft, Cessna, Piper, etc. what a fantastic place to live, huh.
