The landscape was far more interesting than I imagined, so I ended up making a number of stops to take photos and enjoy the scenery. After one of the stops, Google maps directed me up a hill to the left of town instead of where I thought I was going (straight through town). I didn&#8217;t question Google maps as I had never been here. Also, I was zoomed in too much to see that my point B wasn&#8217;t up the hill or in that direction at all.<\/p>\n<p>So I drove up the hill for a few kilometers before Google told me to make a u-turn and go back to where I had just come from before going through town. I was a little pissed and wondered how Google had made such a mistake. I audibly said to the air, &#8220;Why did you send me up this road, Google?&#8221; At that very moment, I rounded a corner to view the most vivid rainbow I think I have ever seen. I responded to the rainbow with, &#8220;Oh Google, this is why you sent me here!&#8221; The photo isn&#8217;t actually that great as it began to fade as I pulled over, got the camera out, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I frequently describe to friends the &#8220;magic&#8221; I experience when traveling.
