route, a vacation, or a road trip. You can edit a saved trip to
further customize it, including reordering locations, optimizing
the order of stops, adding scheduling information, and adding
shaping points.

Planning a Trip
A trip can include many locations, and it must include at least a
starting point and a destination. The starting location is the
location from which you plan to start your trip. If you start
navigating the trip from a different location, the device gives you
the option to route to your starting location first. The destination
is the final location in the trip. For a round trip, the starting
location and destination can be the same. You can also include
additional locations, or stops, between your starting location and
your destination.
