Driving long distances to places you had never been before usually involved books of maps, pre-planning, a navigator, and help from strangers.

My family always went on holiday to Ireland so they had a map for it. When I was little I used to love opening that thing and picturing all the places we could go.

There has to be some coffee shop or antiques store somewhere that navigation apps have brought back from the brink though.
