Description: 
        An easy-to-use Python wrapper for the Google Maps and Local Search APIs.
        
        **Geocoding**: convert a postal address to latitude and longitude
        
        >>> from googlemaps import GoogleMaps
        >>> gmaps = GoogleMaps()
        >>> address = '10th St. & Constitution Ave. NW, Washington, D.C. 20560'
        >>> lat, lng = gmaps.address_to_latlng(address)
        >>> print lat, lng
        38.892087 -77.025989
        
        **Reverse Geocoding**: find the nearest address to (lat, lng)
        
        >>> destination = gmaps.latlng_to_address(38.887563, -77.019929)
        >>> print destination
        200 6th St SW, Washington, DC 20024, USA
        
        **Local Search**: find places matching a query near a given location
        
        >>> local = gmaps.local_search('dinner ' + destination)
        >>> print local['responseData']['results'][0]['title']
        Cosmo Cafe
        
        **Directions**: turn-by-turn directions, distance, time, etc. from
        point A to point B
        
        >>> directions = gmaps.directions(address, destination)
        >>> print directions['Directions']['Distance']['meters']
        1026
        >>> print directions['Directions']['Duration']['seconds']
        115
        >>> for step in directions['Directions']['Routes'][0]['Steps']:
        ...     print step['descriptionHtml']
        Head <b>east</b> on <b>Constitution Ave NW</b> toward <b>9th St NW</b>
        Turn <b>right</b> at <b>7th St NW</b>
        Turn <b>left</b> at <b>Independence Ave SW</b>
