Location

     The first thing you have to ask your self about a location is "Where is it?" The pacific ocean For example: The Pacific Ocean is in between Europe, Africa, and the Americas. We can use longitude and latitude to find exact location on the globe. Location can be discribed, shown and/or, describing the area around a location. There are two types of location: absolute and relative.

       Absolute location:

       Absolute location is a pin pointed place on the globe or sky. Example: Sacramoento Ca. is in the center of the state of California.

       Relative location:

       Relative location is finding a place on the globe or sky by giving a description of an area around the specified place. Example: Colorado is in the United States.

Others are motorcycles, boats, trains, and airplanes.
