New York, New York

I got this map from Google Maps. To find this map you go to maps.google.com and search for "Manhattan."

This map shows New York, New York and its various boroughs. This map shows Central Park and various other locations in New York. There are also main interstates that take you to various locations. There are also bays that connect to the Atlantic Ocean.  There are also various islands.

I find this map interesting because I would like to some day move here. I also find this map interesting because there is literally only a little rectangle in this whole city where there are plants growing.

Map of US Elections

The source to this map is as follows: http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/blogs/national-affairs/karl-roves-election-map-south-carolinas-a-swing-state-20120427 

This map shows the entire United States of America each state representing a different color. This map is showing how popular each presidential candidate is in each state. The legend shows what each color represents. Each color is different describing how likely the candidate will win over that state. The map also shows another box which describes how many electoral college votes each candidate might have.

This map is interesting to me because I am very interested in politics and for the well being of our country. This election seems very close because both candidates are raising a lot of money and are spending a lot on advertising. I think most people today do not care about the policies of the future president; they just vote for whomever they think is the most popular. 

Map of La Tour Eiffel

This map is from Google Maps. The link to view this map is maps.google.com and search for "Eifel Tower France." This map shows the satellite view of an area and labels each of the streets names. Google Maps allows people to see the Eifel Tower without having to leave the convenience of their bed. There are also labels on the map showing where people can stop to get a quick bite to eat. There also seem to be a lot of hotels around the Eifel Tower to accommodate tourists. There are also multiple ways to getting to the Eifel Tower assuming because of the high numbers of people that go visit this majestic place. I am really fascinated by this map because it shows me one of the places that I most want to visit. I am fascinated by the Eifel Tower and I would like to go see it one day. I am also fascinated by the map because it shows many locations of restaurants and I would not mind going to each one and tasting some fine cuisine.
