Thanks to google earth. I haven't had this much fun in over ten minutes. I
can see any place on planet earth real close up. Fun!
And its not smack in the middle its a little more up and to the right. Off-centre.

if I move the mouse fast in one direction and let go? The globe spins
round and round real fast? And I can laugh at all the people? Probably
wondering what happened? Screaming and flying all over the place?
Now, that's fun! 😏
Also? I can zoom in? And then spin the globe real fast? And it's like I'm
flying? From Sweden to China? In less than two seconds?
Awesuuum. 😀

Being able to walk the streets of Paris, Rome, New York, Florence, Tokyo, Sydney, etc. now there's something that appeals to me.

I can learn a lot about a variety of things. I just checked the ship wreck
option, and then I could see a great many ship wrecks in the world, learn
when and how they sank and even go to websites from there which describe
the ships in greater detail. And there's options to learn about a whole host
of various subjects. I'm having lots of fun right now.

So I'm a bit excited about it. I'm sorry. I'll try to restrain myself a little. 😕
check out canadian fjords, russian bogs & river deltas in siberia, and dubai coast line for some weird stuff you never probably thought might exist.
oh, and nile delta looks pretty interesting as well.
