I Traveled the World!!!

I went to Rome, Paris, the Grand Canyon, Hong Kong and Russia this week! It was all pretty amazing... You can go too!

But you have to get some of the coolest software I have ever seen! Vaughn just downloaded it for free last week and its called Google Earth. It is basically the globe but you can type any address in the world and it will take you there. Or you can type a city or monument and it will take you there. It is all satellite imaging and some of the clarity is incredible.

Strange as it sounds it is addicting to play with. We showed it to mom and Dan last night and we ended up looking at it for over an hour.

You should get it! I think all of you and your spouses would really love it! Let me know what you think...

we LOVE that too! Berrett discovered it sometime and it's sooo fun!

I just heard that google has another cool thing called sketchup that is also free and great. It is a 3D imaging program thing.

I love google!

I have been to that site too! I love it. I think I should see if they show Argentina stuff. I bet mom was really interested. And I'm sure her new Dan-guy did too.:)

Hey Kathy. Just in case, Google has a website that has satellite maps, but that's not Google Earth. The really cool one is software that you have to download and install on your own computer. It's not just a map, it's the whole globe!
