Between facebook and Google Earth, I may never do homework again. At first I was just playing with it because I was bored-but then I realized I could see the pyramids and the sphinx and the eiffel tower and big ben and so many other places! Eventually my room was packed with everyone showing eachother their houses. We were flying across the Atlantic at one point and Leo goes "wait. I have this crazy idea." and we all shouted "HAITI!" It was pretty great. I spent 4 hours looking at things. Jackie came running in around 2 saying "did you know you can TILT it?!" We just kept coming up with more things to look at...mount rushmore, red square, the statue of liberty...the grand canyon... It's almost, almost like being there.
EDIT: And now I'm a little creeped out because you can see two planes right as they collided...
