Covid break and a travel fix: virtual drives around major world cities

 I got this from a buddy of mine:

Got nowhere to go and you want to see major cities of the world?

This is the BEST time waster, ever!!!!!!

The first few seconds I got a fuzzy screen but then the picture came on and it might happen again when you change cities - over on the top right you can turn the street noise on, set the speed limit, etc.

This is really neat.   🚗🚖🚙 

Because you can't travel, go to this site, and have a look.

You can set the speed of the vehicle, street noise, music and visit the world while still sitting at home.

You can drive in 50 cities around the world and spend as much time in any one of them driving. 

Pick the city of your choice from the list in the upper right.

Travel while staying home…. obey the speed limit, and don’t pick up hitchhikers ;-).

The Drive & Listen app !

Do a search for that on the web and read all about it.  This article by Sasha Brady at LonelyPlanet.com (May 6 2020) describes the app quite nicely.

Please find my own screenshot "drive" below.

Cheers !  Happy, and safe, "travels" !
