Corn mazes, garden mazes and more via Google Earth

Once a person has seen a video of Sarah Palin's face in a corn maze, it's hard to imagine what might top it. This Google Earth video "Amazed" has a response. These mazes aren't all corn related, however. Some, like the Hampton Court Maze in London, are hedge mazes found in formal gardens.

Where ever these mazes are, Google Earth unfolds them in a kaleidoscope trip to various parts of the world--mostly the United Kingdom.

As a note about corn mazes: They change from year to year. For example, this year The Corn Maze at the Butterfly House in Whitehouse, Ohio is of Toledo Walleye Hockey instead of Sarah Palin.

For the list of where each of the mazes featured in the Google Earth video are located, keep reading. The Butterfly House is not one of them.

This list is found, along with the latidudes and longitudes of each maze on the You Tube video page. Click on "more info." You'll also find links to the Web sites for most of them.
