Well, you now can virtually travel around here, since Estonia got added to Google Street View last night!

They have also photographed portions of Laguja village including the old schoolhouse. So if you ever wondered how my neck of the woods looks like, now you have the chance!

Jaaaay! Best news of the day!

I agree with Matt... that looks like a lot of rural Alabama

I was going to say, We are not in Kansas anymore, but it looks like we sort of are!
So is going to different websites the Internet version of surfing channels on TV?

It really does look a lot like portions of our plains states. Is it normally that green, or do you usually have dry summers or bad droughts that brown everything before fall?

Depends from the year. These pictures were taken in June... Plus our severe weather season is at its peak during the summer months so if not anything else

It really does look like the eastern and Midwestern U.S., I looked up the climate there and it's just like New York state or the upper Midwest. It's called: (Dfb) Humid continental climate with cool summers (Köppen climate classification)

And that as I share a latitude with Alaska and Canada ;) Gotta love the warm currents in the Ocean, I guess.
