    home_addr="39210 Fremont Hub #211, Fremont, CA 94538"
    stopover="456 University Ave. Palo Alto, CA 94301;

    Adding Stopover Points with No Stopping (Bypass only)

    If you only want to make sure that the route bypass the 3 intermediate points, add the keyword (nostop) after each of the stopover point.

    {googleDir_tohere width=400 height=360 
    home_addr="39210 Fremont Hub #211, Fremont, CA 94538"
    stopover="456 University Ave. Palo Alto, CA 94301 (nostop);
    1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View CA 94043 (nostop);
    701 First Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94089 (nostop)"}
