Google Street View

There are times that I wish I had a small digital camera.  Sure, Amy has all of her gear, but we rarely carry around $8k+ worth of gear everywhere we go.  Today, I wish we had at least had a camera phone or something!

We were driving to a Thai place to meet her mom and sister for lunch.  We pull up behind a car with some strange device attached to the top.  We wonder if it’s a Google car.  First observation was the California license plate.  Sounds good, right?

Next, we see that the thing on top apparently appears to have 6 or 8 little black “holes” all around it… turning out to be lenses of some sort… taking video, of some sort.

A left turn at a red-light reveals a Google car magnet on the side!  IT WAS a Google Street View car!  So, we’re going to periodically check the route we took to see if we make it on the camera!  You’ll be updated if that case prevails! :)

Next order of business: Buy a Canon G10.
