Live (Well Aah Maybe Not So Live) Webcams From Around The World

I saw a livecam today and I loved it so much that I searched for some more cams from around the world and included them here for my readers to poke around and have fun. From the time I was a child I was very interested in places around the world and would pore over maps for hours.. I was especially interested in places near the poles. So I spent time collecting webcams from around the world, especially delighting over those from places near the poles.
