Google Earth is Awesome

The only thing not awesome about Google Earth is that it doesn't work on the Mac. What is Google Earth? It's a 3D virtual globe of the planet, that you can zoom in, rotate, and mark points on. You can zoom in on the planet anywhere and you will be looking at satelite photographs. It is awesome and a lot of fun. Oh yeah, and it's free. If you have a windows computer, do this right now:
- Click here and install 'Google Earth' on your windows machine.
Click here to download the African Eclipse map overlay
This will give you a great idea of where our Egypt trip will need to go to be in the path of the eclipse. And messing with Google Earth is just plain fun!
