I'm posting this here just to have a place to remember that last night's place was a bit troublesome to find. There are apparently two places with that address in Lake Zurich. Lucky for us, we sidestepped that issue because I plugged the restaurant's name into the GPS and found the correct location that way, but those who plugged in the address had two to choose from.
The restaurant has actually changed hands (and name) so my strategy may be troublesome next year. I think it was a good enough place to go back to so we'll have to figure out a better way to do this next year. Last year I went through the trouble of putting the Google Maps location on all locations, but since we've switched away from Google Calendar that may no longer be possible.
Kourtis Gyros: 454 N Rand Road Lake Zurich ...
Huh? I see that there are GPS coordinates for this entry and those are not ambiguous. Can someone confirm that they are correct? (The look OK) Perhaps we just need to focus on using the coordinates rather than google maps or GPS navigation (both of which use Navteq maps and can have problems with an error in the maps.) They show a street with a median and I do not recall a median:
