Address is Approximate. "A lonely desk toy longs for escape from the dark confines of the office, so he takes a cross country road trip to the Pacific Coast in the only way he can – using a toy car and Google Maps Street View."

That was really sweet. Snif. No, no, just something in my eye.

That was touching. Sad, yet put a smile on my face. Love the music.

The desk lamps whirling in sync with the passing street lights -- neat!

Wow that's really great! Why is everyone so emotional about it? It's COOL.

I wanna know where he ended up. It looked familiar. (I live near parts of the Pacific Coast that look like that. Envy me.)

I love that stretch of road in Tahoe. I'm glad he got to see it.

I'm pretty sure I've seen the footage at about 1:57 somewhere else.
