I’m so psyched to now share the Glösite they’ve created for their Global Fiesta of Epic Proportions. I want to attend based on the name alone! The Glö-Couple: Kyle, an ESL instructor, and David, a tech support guru Celebration Date & Location: May 2011 in Topsail Island, North Carolina (USA) at the Surfside Center Tell us how you got engaged: We were snorkeling in Okinawa when he randomly popped out of the water and said, “Alright, let’s do this. Let’s get married!”   What’s the overall ‘feeling’ you’re aiming for with your celebration: We’re having guests coming from all over the world, the US, Austria, Japan, and Australia, so we’re really trying our best to make everyone feel at home.

It even has nifty little icons to help guests differentiate a hotel from a restaurant. View Topsail Island Guide in a larger map Super cool, huh? I asked Kyle to write a ‘how to’ explanation so that others would be able to do the same. She’s such a good egg that soon after the below arrived in my inbox. It’s super easy to do! First thing you need is a Google account if you don’t have one already.  Once you’re signed into your Google account, you go to http://maps.google.com/.  On the lefthand side of the map, you’ll see two links: Get Directions and My Maps.  Click on My Maps.  If you’ve never made a Google Map before, a video will pop up that has a great tutorial on how to use the feature.  From there you can either click on Learn More […]
