I've never been an adventurous person, so probably too careful to ever get lost.

I remember being at a fair when I was five, getting separated from my dad’s hand, running up to him, or so I thought, grabbed a hand only to have a stranger looking down at me and screaming blue bloody murder. My dad found me shortly afterward. To this day I still get claustrophobic in crowds. I hate getting lost. I thought GPS was the best invention since sliced bread. When we travel I always go to AAA and get the biggest updated Atlas with the biggest print for times we might find ourselves in a dead zone, and got an extra battery charger to fit on my phone, so that our GPS is at the ready :)DeniseinVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494518513936310345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688207620251526295.post-49656086366143423532017-10-13T00:45:52.115-06:002017-10-13T00:45:52.115-06:00You sound to have an adventurous soul Red!

I'm wondering if the "reminders" your dad gave you when he picked you up and again when he got you home were of the spanking kind or the talking kind!<br /><br />I've never been lost except in my car in an unfamiliar place, and it's much easier to backtrack or cover ground quickly in a vehicle.

The only time I could relate to was actually some weeks back, going to a large government complex over in Gatineau called the Portage complex to get a passport. Several office towers, all interconnected, and leaving was something of a problem- it's a maze in there, and I couldn't find an exit in the direction I wanted to go, so I had to backtrack to where I'd come from.William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.com
