Wow, this is cool! I think I might have to do one of these things. I loved reading about your travels and seeing all the great pics. Sounds like it was a fantastic adventure and glad you’re all settled in with jobs in London now.
If you use Gmail, there is a tab for Google maps, or just Google ‘Google Maps’, and you can click “Create new map” to the left. If you then search for places on the globe, you can then “save to my maps”.
Once you have your custom map look to the right hand side and there is a “link to this page” link. Under “Paste HTML to embed in website” you can copy that HTML to your website, or straight into a WordPress post (if in HML mode).
If you want to customise the initial look and zoom etc there is a “Customise and preview embedded map” link under where you copied the HTML code.
What amazing pics again, such a beautiful country – a must to see. We also have enjoyed following you on your adventures and wow what a tan you both have! Enjoy the rest of your travels to Prague and Spain and make the most of any opportunities that come your way. Have fun.

Here is how it’s done…
If you use Gmail, there is a tab for Google maps, or just Google ‘Google Maps’, and you can click “Create new map” to the left. If you then search for places on the globe, you can then “save to my maps”.
Once you have your custom map look to the right hand side and there is a “link to this page” link. Under “Paste HTML to embed in website” you can copy that HTML to your website, or straight into a WordPress post (if in HML mode).

It’s really very easy. Gotta love Google!
