Google Maps directions impractical

Well, there is that ocean gap. Dag commented on that the other day from the other direction. Whereas MapQuest told me it would be something like twelve hours for me to get from Eureka to Point Reyes. Totally wrong-o, by hours, all within a well mapped state of California. I supposed they've fixed that info by now, but it threw me off big time.

I believe in 2nd opinions........................and third, and fourth. When I have to go somewhere unfamiliar, I check on Google Maps, Mapquest, Yahoo maps and AAA Triptik. THEN, I program my GPS, and see which way that I like best!

I usually print a map and figure out the directions myself. They always take you the weirdest ways....
