Cool. I just looked at these placemarks. Looks like you saw some pretty interesting places.

I didn't know you could save multiple placemarks under one kmz file. Neat. I'll need to play with this some.

Yes...I owe most of that to Robin, who suggested the river trip to Greenwich as what I should do having only one day. One gotcha there is that the Clippers only run to Greenwich during commute time, so anybody intending the same should plan accordingly. It still left me off at Embankment in time for some rubbernecking and windowshoping in a fascinating neighborhood until it was time to go see Blue Man Group in Drury Lane.

Yes indeed...there's all kinds of things you can do including paths and tours; I've only scratched the surface.

Furthermore, if you unzip the kmz to a kml, and put it on a webserver, you can do
http://maps.google.com?q=http://myse...g/mykmlfil.kml
And navigate the placemarks on Goggle Maps without having GE installed at all.

I need to learn how to do paths. I find paths much more interesting than placemarks.

Yeah, me too. I want to do the GFW HST rides out and back, my wanderings in London, and the famous Mumbles Pub Crawl.
