I would imagine many of you have heard about google maps and the "Street view" feature. Not all cities in the US have it but in Chicago we do and it is a very fun tool to use. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Paris France now has google maps "Street View" and you can walk all around Paris and see the sites.

It was so cool to relieve some of the place we went to a couple years ago.

Here is a fun link to get you started: paris france - Google Maps

Thanks,

Europe seems to have done more with street view than has been done in the US. There is a section of road done going asbout 30 miles or so southwest from Paris through the countryside and the small towns along the way. Also, there are bits of the Alps done in Italy and France. Rome has also been done.

Thank you Nicko! I got to "fly" to our hotel on Rue Monsieur-le-Prince (Hotel St. Paul), which is on the same block as Restaurant Polidor. Polidor was made known to readers of Rick Steves's popular travel guides. We had a good meal at a decent price.
