Help me please.

Seems like this should be simple enough but I cannot figure it out.

I want to look up two addresses from two contacts in my address book and get directions between them. I am not in either location.

How does one do this?
 
It is very simple.
  1. Look up one of the addresses or Contacts
  2. Hit the Directions button
  3. Then it will say To xxxxxx From My Location (My Location hyperlink)
  4. Hit My Location and change to the other address or Contact

As an alternate, I dictate using Siri (slowly and with clear enunciation!):
"Give me directions from Person 1 at Home to Person 2 at Work" as an example, or "Give me directions from Person 1 at Home to the Costco on 192nd Ave in Vancouver WA" - works for me every time.

if it was any easier it would have punched me in the face. I read this before but where I got lost was I could click "My Location" and under that would be locations listed but those were directions to that location from my location. So it would then give me a set of difrections from my current location to the another location.

Confusing.

But I got it to work.

Thanks!
