Oh, I've already done this. Several times. I can now get from the view 
of the whole Earth to the view of my car [the one I no longer have, BTW] 
without any labels at all. Which is impressive, when you consider I'm 
120 miles inland with no notable geographic features nearby.

(I must say though, at low magnification Google just shows off the 
different colourings of its map chunks rather than the features of the 
Earth!)
