Thing 18 - Play with Google Maps

Google Maps
What a fantastic tool, I searched the Gold Coast for a good area to stay, close to shops, beach and not too far from the airport. I then zoomed in to find the roof top of a nice resort and located the street name infront of the resort with the suburb name. I then did a Google search on “resort street name and suburb” to find the individual resort. Made the reservation online, with piece of mind, knowing the location and facilities in the area.

Google Street View
I think my street in Parkdale is the only steet not included, although I can look down my street from the “T” intersection at the and just see my house.Still all very impressive.
