it is v. interesting, though. my map would include many different things if flipped, but i think of my neighborhood in the standard compass directions. if you had made yours in a normal top=north fashion, would it change what you included?

It's the base of the big statue, next to the cathedral -- the eye is drawn to the winged battle and moon-face and giraffeasaurus thing, but at the base there is a giant crab claw clutching a severed human head.

Fun facts:
- that's allegedly, like ... the largest gothic-style church in North America, or something - it's not even finished, hence the scaffolding - its official archivist/librarian is Madeleine L'Engle - its yearly Blessing of the Animals freaked the hell out of me when I first moved to town, because I went out to get tacos and there was a BULL and a PENGUIN walking down the middle of the street like nothing was up - if you zoom in really far on that picture, you can find me urinating behind a bush
