GPS readings which we have taken whilst out and about in The World.

Whilst on our various holidays in Greece, The Canary Islands, England, New Zealand, Portugal and so on we have often gone out walking and one of the interesting things to do is track our routes with our Garmin GPSmap 60CSx, then on return load it all up onto our laptop and see just where we got lost this time.

There are quite a few maps out now which are often extremely accurate but you may need to set them up / calibrate on your pc with some known co-ordinates - these readings below might help.
