I found my house on it! Looks so small compare to the other houses in my neighborhood.  Voted for "Yes it has many pretty colours and is 3D".

Here's some pic showing where I live:
- showing my house only
- showing my house and McMaster University
Notice at southeast area there's a winding road? It's actually a road going uphill, you can't really feel the terrain though. |
