Use Google My Maps to calculate the route #

Although there is Google Maps, there is another service called Google My Maps which allows you to create a custom map, add locations, and calculate a suggested route.

What's frustrating is that this service feels hidden away from the main maps product, and is difficult to discover.

You get to Google My Maps by:

• going to Google Maps
• opening the hamburger menu
• clicking Saved
• clicking the Maps tab
• clicking Open My Maps

Use an "Add Directions" layer per-day #

Clicking the "Add Directions" button creates a "dircections" layer - this is what you want!

You can create a new layer for each day, with up to 10 points, and the route will be calculated

I used a layer to plan 10 things we wanted to walk to during a day
