Considering I am fairly computer illiterate, but CAN follow instructions.. can I, at mappy.com or similar, actually MARK multiple places I want to go and then print out this/these new map/s?

I don't see that option on website.

Re: future trip to Paris, basically for restaurants and bistros I have gotten here as recommendations.

As far as I have been able to discover, you can only enter two points at mappy.com to get a map and a route description between the two points.

Which is what I did for the routes between my B&B in Palermo and the restaurants I was thinking of going to: 1. To see how far away they were; 2. To see whether they were in a safe part of town. The second reason would probably not apply in Paris...

Hi lin,

The best you can do is to get driving directions with various "via" (www.mappy.com) or "stopovers" (www.viamichelin.com).

These will be marked.

www.mappy.com will allow pedestrian routes for in-city touring.

We like the Streetwise maps for cities.

Hope this helps.

thanks... will try to mark more complicated itinerary past places i want to go to !

Mappy allows "via" inserts as well.

I haven't had time to figure this out yet, but mappy has a "personal planner" thing that allows you to save maps and then , I assume, print them. I received this email from them when I registered, but still don't have time to actually figure out.

"Dear dina : Hello !

Thank you! You have a personal Mappy Plan Perso space, which allows you to save up to 10 maps at www.mappy.com.

In order to provide you with even better service, your new personal space will change: you will find many options and tools for your map and route searches...."

Perhaps you should check this out.
Good luck!
