Welcome to the Highland Village Virtual Tour 
You are about to go “where no man has gone before!” Well, okay… that might be a little dramatic but we are doing something very exciting and unique here. We hope you will take this journey with us as the first users of an innovative new way to visit a virtual Highland Village and to enter each store’s individual web page.

Below are instructions on loading the tour onto your computer and how to use your mouse to “navigate” or move through the village. There are system requirements because you must have certain components in order to run this program. (See System Requirements) But here are a few notes to get you started. 

· Broadband connectivity is essential.
· Your mouse is now your steering wheel. Move your mouse to control your point of view. 
· You can “look” up or down by pushing your mouse forward and backwards.
· To “move” through the village:
· Left click and hold to go forward 
· Right click and hold to go backwards
· To “enter” a store just walk up to the front door and wait for your browser to launch the     store’s web page.
· To “leave” a store and return to the Virtual Tour- just minimize your browser
