Map of the World…Part 1

  • Posted on February 3, 2009 at 17:33

I like maps.  It’s a thing.  I’ve always liked maps.  I think if I had gone to school a few years later, I would have gone into GIS.  That said, I didn’t, but I still like maps.

Apparently, my fondness for them has been passed along to my elder son.  Linus came home with the following picture from kindergarten today:

Together we added the captions that labeled the places of importance in his world.

Sometimes the simplest things show us so much!

For reference, the “round restaurant” is a local Chinese buffet restaurant.  For the longest time I thought it was called the round restaurant because we walked around to get food.  However, I’ve been informed that it’s called the Round Restaurant because we have to drive around to get to the parking (it’s the scariest parking garage I’ve ever been in!!).

    That’s really interesting! I’m the worst with maps. I just HATE them. But, this? This is my kind of map. I should try the exercise with Monkey….

    I love maps too (hence the name and the profession)!

    Keep up the good work Linus!
