Traveling around using Google Street Maps is always an interesting experience, and you don’t even need a car, plane, taxi, lodging, or fuel. Not only can you look around in places you have never been before and possibly never will be, but you never know what you will come across. From what appears to be UFO sightings to ghostly personages lurking in alleyways, bikini-clad girls, and places you may never dare drive on your own. It’s always a fun way to pass some time and discover something new!
