It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years. I have fond memories of seeing which photos were popular and had hoped to share them with you. It was surprising to see how many views my pictures had accumulated.

out how I can squeeze myself in their schedule.
I decided to go on Monday, March 2 with my mom.
When I came home that day I had heard in the news there was a

This is when you realize it is not your time to experience
something as horrible as those 50 people have experience that day when a gun
man held 50 people hostage.
You realize how lucky you are and God holds you back not going in
a danger zone.
