zip codes for attractions etc ? (sat nav)
 
Hi All,
I am sure someone here has a list of sat nav codes for the various attractions ? :)
A firend of mine recently ended up at an office instead of the attraction because he had the wrong zip code. :)

There is Ted I printed it off fews days ago.
it lists Themes Parks, Diner shows, shoppig Malls, and eating out.
I found it through search, but can't remember where, :(
I'll try to look again, ad see if I remember, I'm sure some one else will help out before I find it again

We never needed zip codes when we used the Tom Tom - it found everything we wanted (except the mini golfs for some reason?) by just selecting the Points of Interest option.

Its not Zip Codes you need - Its a list of POI.

A US Zip code covers a BIG area...

US Zip codes cover a very wide area, they are no use in a sat nav as they can take you quite a bit away from where you want to go, you really need the street name and number to reach your destination.
