If Sirius has a lot of travelling to do, then it makes sense for him to 
continue travel by air - ie, on Buckbeak.  So I think it's highly likely 
that he bounded off to the cave outside Hogsmeade, picked up Buckbeak, 
and took to the skies again.

Do we know where Lupin is living?  For some reason I get the impression 
that he is abroad somewhere, but there isn't any canon to suggest this.

I'm also wondering if we will see Sirius and/or Lupin in Magnolia 
Crescent at some point during the summer vacation (would be nice for 
Harry), or whether Arabella Figg will be contacted some other way. 
Anyway, he could be lying in the flower bed, minding his own business, 
when he hears a whispered "Harry!" from the other side of the hedge...

As for the Marauder's Map, I'm hoping that Dumbledore is kind enough to 
return it to Harry - but this is probably highly unlikely - the 
Marauder's Map would be far too useful, even to someone who is 
*supposed* to be omniscient.
