GPS References for Touring Sites ?

[Steve Bowyer]

Hi all

Does anybody happen to have GPS info (preferably for Garmin Streetpilot III)
for the following two campsites:-
Camping international de Jablines near Eurodisney
and
Camping L'Etang de la Breche at Saumur.

Any info gratefully received - thanks

Steve

I'd be happy with something 'standard' for the UK C&CC sites (listed
on their web site I mean) .

Fine if you have a car full of those foldy paper things. ;-)

Somone once mentioned how you could take summat like

Map Ref: 197/774056

... and turn it into something more 'global'?

Cheers .

Hi Steve,

My pleasure ;-)

I just did it by 'eye', googling to the campsite, looking at the map
and matching it to the Mapsource map. Not very subtle but would have
got you within 1.5 miles of your lake after a 300 mile journey (if
leaving from London) ;-)

Have you upgraded yer SPIII Steve .. latest version is 2.07 from
memory?

All the best and have a safe trip ..

Hi again
Like you say - crude methodology, but it's the one I used initially, but
thought that after a 500mile trip I'd like to be a bit nearer - plus my wife
always doubts the SP3's ability to get us anywhere, so I like to be able to
get to the doorstep - just to prove to her that it was worth the money !!!
Upgraded to 2.70 a good while ago - don't notice any difference though - but
never hurts !

Cheers again

Steve
