Maps #32

Activity 1:

Out of the "100 Things to do With Google Maps", I was curious to discover where there was daylight at this time around the world. So, I clicked on that question and it took me to the website http://www.daylightmap.com/. It was a neat site to explore, since it showed the Western hemisphere in daylight and the Eastern hemisphere was blacked out.

Activity 2:

I chose the Terra Server website and I clicked on the celebrity homes link. It displayed aerial photos of celebrity homes. They included Britney Spears, John Travolta, Madonna, Oprah Winfrey, and Paris Hilton's homes. Here is a link to an aerial view of Oprah Winfrey's home:
