Backup required

As the pandemic lockdown gradually lifts we are permitted to travel further and further from home. 

We went on trip to an unfamiliar area. Of course we used the car navigation system. Wall's

But for the return journey the "Nav" screen on the car failed. This was a surprise as the car is about 11 months old.

Luckily the return journey was well signed as we were heading back to the Big Smoke.We also have a map book (2013 edition ) for our region sitting in one of the car seat pockets and our mobile phones ( 2 off )have map functions.

So three back-up in total.

And back at home there are two Tom-tom navigation devices. One is no longer supported and its suction cup device is broken but otherwise it still works. I trying to think of a use for it.

Reviewing it all having 3 systems dependant on GPS and the fourth system seven years out of date is not ideal. I will get updated maps for Queensland and New South Wales.

Update  - and Mazda replaced the faulty unit in the car- no worries.
