I've have now gotten lost in Wiesbaden twice and I'm not even driving yet! The first time, was when a quick run turned into a 45 minute run because I lost my way and the second was yesterday when I walked downtown. I always have my bearings - I know generally which direction I need to go, but this gives me a false sense of security I guess because it has failed me twice.
I've also been forced to quit data on my cell phone cold turkey, as we get here and figure out what's what we just bought a prepaid sim card without data. I'm trying to evaluate all the times I think about using data and consider whether it is necessary or not, but I will tell you when I was hiking myself up a steep hill in 90+ degree weather yesterday with no assurance that it was the correct hill, I was REALLY wishing I could pull up a map! So we'll see how long this technology deprivation truly lasts.
The good news is that there were pretty houses on top of this hill - even though it turned out to be the wrong hill :)
