Visiting Hearst Castle Virtually

I just finished reading an article in the travel section of the local paper. It was about Hearst Castle, home of William Randolphe Hearst (?) in California. I have never been there but I did visit “virtually” by going to the web site that they recommended.  Although it would be great to see it in person you have to admit that it’s a lot less crowded to see parts of it this way!

There’s a map on the right and you click on the various dots that represent specific rooms or gardens. There’s music that accompanies each room. Check it out for yourself! here’s the link: http://www.regal360.com/clients/hearst/hearstcastle/index.html. I’d love to hear any stories or observations from those of you who have been to see this amazing place.
