Let me know when/if you make it to Rio (my father&#039;s place of birth).  If you do go, make sure you time it right for 2011 Rio Carnival.  I believe it starts in March!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is one of my favorite features on your site.  Let me know when/if you make it to Rio (my father&#8217;s place of birth).

When viewing your My Map, right  click the &#039;View in Google Earth&#039; link and copy the link to the clipboard (probably something like &#039;Copy Shortcut&#039; or &#039;Copy Link Location&#039; - depends on your browser&#039;)Now display your KML again. I have found it best to open a new Google Maps window, probably just go-to http://maps.google.com and paste in the URL copied earlier INTO the search box, and click the Search Maps button.You should now get a display of your My Map - that doesn&#039;t page.This new &#039;map&#039; remains a live copy of the original My Map, so you can continue to edit the main map and this copy will automatically update (subject to a small delay due to caching)Furthermore it should be a functional map, so you can save it back to &#039;My Maps&#039; - where it will be put in the &#039;created by others&#039; section (it doesn&#039;t know you created it anymore) - which has the benefit of being able to distinguish which is the original and which is the copy.This also means that the map can be embedded - useful to embed the original My Map but with out paging[1]. And to the end user should barely be able to tell the difference.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How to solve the pagination issue:</p><p>First get the URL of the KML export.

I will think about how I can do that. Deborah, I used the Draw a shape feature on GMaps so technically, yes it is somewhat hand drawn. The pagination issue is a bit more tricky I will find the link where I found the explanation and post. Thanks.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Josh, great idea.

I´m glad you like our map. It has cost me some work. Y es, we use google maps (my maps feature.)  It got a little tricky because google maps uses pagination.  When this occurs the points don&#039;t all appear on the same map, however there is a work around.  If you are using this and need any help let me know.  I´d be glad to assist you.  Thanks for following!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks Justin! I´m glad you like our map. It has cost me some work. Y es, we use google maps (my maps feature.)

We actually just did a similar 3 month trip down from Cancun to San Jose while carrying a whiteboard and getting travelers messages.  I really like how you have the route and different colors...how did you do that with google maps? Thanks and have a fun trip</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey I just came upon your website and I think it&#8217;s awesome how you did the map the way you did.
