Apple Maps new Look Around feature — Honolulu, Hawaii

I updated to iOS 13 last night and was happy to see the Look Around announced when you first open the Apple Maps app. The feature is only available in San Francisco, Las Vegas and Honolulu and it works really well.

This video retraces the steps we took 10 years ago when we visited Hawaii and would walk from our hotel towards Waikiki beach. It's pretty smooth and nicer experience than Google Maps but it would be really nice if you could hide all the clutter.

It also looks like there's more detail in Honolulu where the perspective of cars, people and objects shifts slightly as you look around at a particular spot but if you do the same on The Strip in Vegas, it feels flatter and much more like the Streetview experience we're used to.

I've seen the Apple Maps cars in 4 locations in London over the past 6-8 weeks so I'm really looking forward to seeing the feature roll out to more cities and countries.

Nike Air Jordan 1 Low in black & gold

I have a pair of Nike SB Dunks in this colour way and I love them. If I needed a new pair of shoes, I'd be all over these.

Soccer field in Kailua Beach Park

Took a bit of exploring, but I found it on Google Maps. What a view. If I ever get to go to Oahu, Hawaii again, I want to score a goal on a pitch like this!
