Yes, they do. Try orienting the globe for yourself here:

You're right! But with my globe at home, and that site you listed, at the same angle I can clearly see part of India and Australia, it's weird that they don't seem to show up in this picture.
If you get closer and widen the lens, you will see an arbitrarily small portion of the earth as you approach it.
