Re: Navigation weirdness


 

Reading over my previous posts in this thread, I wasn¡¯t thinking clearly when I wrote at least one of them. If I said I typed in my current location, that would have been incorrect. I typed in my destination.

Last Friday I decided that I did want to try the Italian restaurant on the same block as the bookstore where I went the previous week, and see how the navigation went while I was at it. This time I went straight from work to the restaurant without the intermediate stops of the previous week. Once again, I printed out Bing Maps directions, just in case. Using Waze, I got to the restaurant with no problem. After dinner I brought up Waze, typed in the destination (home), and got the Waze equivalent of ¡°I don¡¯t know where I am.¡± So I tried Apple Maps, and unlike the previous week, it worked. Bing Maps had wanted to send me southward on the street I was on, and Apple Maps sent me northward, but I figured (correctly) that I¡¯d still get home OK. Apparently it was a case of ¡°just one of those things.¡±

I had cheese ravioli with marinara sauce, enjoyed it, and would recommend that restaurant. I still want to try Magic Earth.
