Remember the time before GPS when navigating in a foreign place took map reading skills and a little bit of intuition? Our kids sure don't. As Ladan and I would silently pat ourselves on the back for getting around Izmir, a city of 4 million, our kids would groan in the back seat at even the slightest hesitation about where to turn next. It was Sam though, who broke the spell of self-congratulation when he grumbled from the back seat, "You guys may want to reconsider your navigation algorithm of eeny-meeny-miny-moe."
We're back to using the Garmin and the kids seem to think it makes a big difference but Ladan and I are pretty sure we are doing just as well as we were before.
