The first thing you want to do is to zoom down to street view for the area where you live or you where you have chosen to walk using Google Maps. You can do this by entering the address into Google Maps or using drag-and-drop to manipulate the map.

If you are unfamiliar with Google Maps, you can review instructions on navigating Google Maps.

Hint: You can use your mouse's scroll wheel to zoom in and out.
