Google's Mapping User Experience; Where have you been?

I've been away from home for 16 days. CivicActions' Full-team and Engineering Offsite Advances in Playa Del Carmen, México, started last Tuesday 8 July and finished last Monday 14 July. I arrived in Cancún 6 days early and did some backpacking around the South-East of México, El Petén Northern Guatemala, and Northern Belize.

Mapping my journey and photographs was an interesting and enjoyable experience. Google Maps, PicasaWeb and Picasa's Google Maps integration are really very tight. Below is the journey map, and the photo slideshow. The mapped photos are on picasa because they couldn't easily be embedded.
