The one I am looking for is the cruise terminal in San Pedro, California.
But since that isn't on the map, it's a good guess how you would set up a
route<grin>.

Hi. If you are talking about addresses on edinburgh street, I found a
few. Some were in San Francisco, others were in San Mateo. As for the
World Cruise Center, I did not find it in San Francisco, but I did find
World Cruise Travel in San Jose California.
If you give me specifics of what exactly you are trying to look for, I
may be able to help even if I'm using a Voice Sense which for the most
part, searches the same way. If you want to send me a particular address
privately, let me know and I'll look it up and won't give it out publicly.
