Karol, I found your house with Google Earth but when I wanted to go to Paris I went to sidestep.com, bought the cheapest ticket for the date I wanted, drove to LAX, waited in the long line, took all my drugs aboard the plane with no problems, and went. The food is great on international flights and the pilot does all the driving. Thats all.

Hilarious :thumbup;
-
Just how do they know that it will take 29 days to swim across the ocean? Is this including breaks, meals, and sleeping or straight through? :lol;

I have had fun looking at the "Street Views" on Google maps. The photo posted below is my house.
You can go to Google maps, type in your street address and if they've video'd your street you can see your house!
Or try it this way:
Explore neighborhoods at street level–virtually.
Tour streetscapes and see 360° images
Use Street View to:
View street level photographs (select cities)
Take virtual walks; pan, rotate and zoom
Explore cityscapes, landmarks, points of interest
Find shops, restaurants, parks, hotels and more
Learn how to use street view http://maps.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=68476&utm_campaign=en&utm_source=en-ha-na-us-google-svn&utm_medium=ha#street_views
