Weather: Clear, occasional rain, occasional cloud
Wind: W 15 to 19 knots
Heave: 2 m
We are in the high pressure system, but the weather is not stable.
The tide movement is affecting to our speed over the ground reads over 7 knots on GPS.
At this point, we still have west wind, thus we are sure that it was a good decision to go down south.
The fist storm that we had was showed on the weather map light blue and the size was much smaller than the one we had in winter, thus we thought it wouldn't be so bad. However, the wave was hard and it went over 5 m occasionally. This might be a character of the low pressure on the Atlantic.
This time we decided to go down south to avoid the strong wind according to the weather map. We will mark the longest Day run today!

I always get lost in the Technodrome in the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles NES game. And once I find my way, I get owned by the astronauts. But it's a nice map, I think. One reason I draw my own maps is because looking at a ROM-captured map can be hard to see exactly what the paths are because there's so much detail in the foregrounds and backgrounds. Sometimes my maps of paths are single lines (like Metroid and Aria of Sorrow) and sometimes they're outlined hallways like this. The hallway look is easier to follow, but harder to draw. The proportions keep getting messed up.
This irreverent map of the United States was first drawn in 1936 by Daniel K. Wallingford. Later artists would do similar satirical renditions (including a famous New Yorker cover in 1976); previous artists were more socio-politically themed. The date of this particular printing is not specifically verified, but is believed to be a 1937 reprint.

Digital Progression created a series of maps for Eurostar stations in London, Paris, Brussels and Lille.
Map for COD4 multiplayer. I posted these for the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare gaming community to help with stratting.
Folks love to peel away ads and maps on these big boards. This one had so many layers removed, it revealed the original map that was here. Look at all of those extra lines that were never built out! And some of the station names are different, too!
The map was also upside-down for some reason. These images are rotated 180 degrees.
