Google Street View of Pompeii now available

Apparently, Google Maps now has a street view of Pompeii available. This is great news for those who are both curious and lazy, or who don’t have a passport. In all seriousness, it’s an amazing teaching tool that I hope will find its way into classrooms quickly. Click this link to get a map of the site, then drag the little yellow figure in the corner down into the ruins to walk around them.
