Where is the World is Taylor?

For my third assignment for my final project (look at me go!) I did google map trip. This assignment is to use Google Maps to tell a story! It can be the story of a trip you took, a trip you would like to take, a strange occurrence, a war, anything you like!

Since my whole project is on Taylor Swift I had to decided what I wanted to map out related to her.  After thinking for a few minutes I decided to map out her current tour.  I personally went to her tour a about a month ago and it was freaking awesome.  Here is a video of the opening of her tour at my concert (not my video, sadly my seats were not this good).

So what I decided to do was to pull up her tour dates.  Luckily I was able to easily find these dates on her website. I was planning on putting all these dates on one google map but her tour was too long to fit onto one.  For this tour she is out across the United States and Canada for nine months! (and she is about to release worldwide tour dates).

To make my map I used google maps.  All I had to do was transfer each city from her website into the next destination slot.  This would have been a relatively easy process if she wasn’t going to forty-seven different cities.

Here are my final maps that I made.  Please note that there are too because there were so many different cities that google maps made me start a new one half way though.
