More Procrastinatorial Fun

That's right folks--I'm at it again--procrastinating, that is. You may ask, "Andrew, what are you procrastinating about?" And I respond, "Well, nothing really, but I'm just sorta looking for entertaining ways to occupy my time..." And so this kept me entertained for about half-an-hour yesterday. High Res Maps on Google Maps.

I headed across the Atlantic to Paris to scope out the sites I saw a few months back: How about The Louvre, Notre Dame (notice all of the people in front), The Opera House, The Arc de Triumph, or even The Eiffel Tower. I mean, these are some amazing shots.

Then I found the hotel we stayed at here. (I'm pretty sure it's in the field next to the traffic circle...I'm guessing it wasn't built when the satellite image was taken.

However, I could not find the location of my friend's (Bethany) apt. So I'm calling out to B...check out the maps and send me a link to your place, I'm dying (and procrastinating) to see what your building looks like from above.

That's it.

wow, I am so honored to be thought of in all the places you could look at :)

I live at 14 rue Bidel...http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=14+rue+bidel,+france&ll=48.915669,2.281128&spn=0.001632,0.005364&t=k&om=1

but sadly the pointer/arrow is not directly pointing at my building...mine is the squarish white one to the right (w/flat roof)
