Background
A few years back a replica of the Niña, one of Christopher Columbus’s ships, visited Pittsburgh.

I was able to take photos of the ship, and at the time I put them into a PowerPoint presentation that I shared with my students for several years in honor of Columbus Day. Then I learned about Mapwing. This is a great Web 2.0 tool that allows you to make your own virtual field trips!
