Google Street View comes to Ireland!

Today I saw my house and my old car on Google Maps. All thanks to the Google Street View.

Then I started looking for some of my favourite places in Ireland and found them of course. But Street View isn’t just good for looking up places you’ve already been to, it’s great for looking up how places you are going to go to actually look. Ok, some may say it’s spoiling the surprise. If you think that, then just don’t use it. I know I’ll be using it to revive the old memories of the things seen and to plan the future trips (you can never rely on those GPSs and maps!).

Here are some print screens of the places I looked up today.

A house on a road in Connemara (I have made dozens of pictures of that beautiful place)

The most beautiful place on Earth (B&B website: http://www.sleaheadfarm.com/)

The only problem with these images is that they are sunny, a rare occasion in Ireland. But it sure does the scenery justice! How did Google manage to arrange a sunny day/sunny days for their visit, I don’t know, but they are powerful! :)
