This is a great application of Google maps, Roger. Would it be possible for the comments box to be removed completely ? If so, that would allow me to take a snapshot of the map to include the scale on the bottom left but to exclude the comments box.

Would be great if you could highlight the natural flow of all 3 rivers, so it clearly shows how one 'hops' from one to the other, by using the canal

Thanks, I appreciate your work. It would be even nicer if I could simply enlarge and print it - for reference as I cruise the whole length.

maybe you shoud add to the list of cities also Bratislava...I think it is an important city on Danube, with big river ports and Gabcikovo dam close to it...
