Before we can add a marker to our map, we need a location! Our first step is going to be walking through how we can get the latitude and longitude of our favorite spot in Washington, D.C. so that we can add it to our map.

Instructor: [0:00] The first thing we're going to is pick out a location. I'm going to look for the Smithsonian for the National Air and Space Museum. Once there, I can right-click the location, and I can select What's Here. As you can see, I can get the latitude and longitude right on the map.
