Everybody loves maps. The sense of adventure you feel unfolding a map of some distant land while planning your next escapade, the excitement and trepidation when you arrive in said distant land, bleary-eyed, clutching your slightly crumpled map, or just the appreciation felt when looking at a map for no particular reason other than to marvel at the skill and history behind the unholy marriage of science and art that is cartography. Maybe that's just us, but you would surely be hard pressed to find someone that wasn't at least a little enamoured with the wonders of a good map.
