Harry,

I'd like to look at that Google Earth file.

I didn't create a file, but I tried to follow along in Google Earth when I read "Five Weeks in a Balloon."

Mont Cenis (as in the tunnel)
and Turin (where the 2006 Winter Olympics were held)

If you would like I could send you a Google Earth file I created showing
each of the locations that Fogg visited (with dates as well)

I'm finalizing my Irish-language edition of Around the World in
Eighty Days and the last thing I'm doing is Gaelicizing the map of
the world at the end.

Unfortunately some of the place-names I can't work out.

For instance, in the north of the Italian peninsula, I see what appears to
be:

Mt. Cenis
Turin

Is this correct?
