“No matter the mode of transport, it’s a pretty good idea to have a clue how to navigate without the technology.”

North is that direction to the east, right? Like where that blue thingy on my phone points?

Also, if I have a paper roadmap, how do I download updates? And how can I determine the terrain? Is there like a 3D effect on paper that I am not aware of?

I can navigate anywhere! Follow me, I know the way! :-P

“North is that direction to the east, right?”

I think it was Glen Beck years ago on how stupid the average person was. He would call people up and ask them “At YOUR house - in which direction does the sun rise? North, south, east, or west? Now remember - this is at YOUR house.”

He would have people go out their front door (”okay, so you’re saying just like on the map with north on top, the front of your house is north?....)
