I remember reading on this forum about a web site where you could look at aerial photos. Does anyone know the details? I think it is a free service and is ideal for looking at caravan sites before you book. Thanks, Jim.
 
Google Earth has some pretty detailed satellite photos of certain parts of the country.

You can even see my house and back garden at 50

Jim and Pauline,

I mentioned www.multimap.com some time ago as being a handy way of checking out sites especially the photo bit even though they are hardly high definition. Google, as has been mentioned, does not give the same coverage of the U/K. Multimap at one time used to include discount vouchers for a well known chain of roadside eateries ( no advertising here ) if you printed out a map. Not gourmet dining but handy for feeding the ravening hordes. The children liked it as well.

ummmmm it was the Little Chef Mike heheh! We used many of those coupons and as you say they were very convenient. Her Ladyship always had some in her purse.
 
I use google earth, I think it's great and have loads of fun - my mates showed us exactly where they stay in florida and I could show mine where we went in Hungary (i was excited as I'd never been abroad before!)

Just a hint though - it does need broadband and a fairly able pc to run

Lord B,

Yeh I know it was the vertically challenged cook but knowing how business names can be 'withdrawn' on forums I euphemised ( if there is such a word ). The same catering firm now prints discount vouchers in several newspapers which come in handy .
