I left New Zealand mid-2003, bound for Istanbul and a new lif. After two years, a Belgian guy lured me into his world, deep in the heart of Europe. For a long time I was an in-process immigrant. One day we married. These days it's about photography, a little red wine and wandering ... and so the journey goes.
Great to be accompanied by someone who focused on the map.
I recall driving through Paris in poring rain, way back before the time everyone got a GPS for Christmas: it was absolutely no fun at all, even after my 20th visit.
Last August I used one of those more elaborate models with speed-cam warnings and POI's that even included WiFi spots: it was so much more fun focusing on a city and just forgetting the map.
"At the intersection, turn right", said the husky voice - I just followed ;-)
Love it. Period.

Driving in Paris, with rain ... I don't envy you at all Peter. It's kind of a like an automative war zone.
ReplyDeleteThe GPS sounds tempting as I'm a terrible navigator :)
Love the shallow dof of this photo!
