Daily Commute

I was thinking of getting a GPS receiver so I can track where I am going and automatically put geotags in the photos I tag. This made me wonder what my tracklog would look like for the past few days.  So, I pulled up evernote  and drew:

GPS "Tracklog"

Right. To and from the office. I should have realized earlier.

Half of the daily trip is on the subway, so it wouldn’t really work.  I plotted my route on Google maps instead:

Blue markers are on the subway Hibiya line. The red/orange ones (WHAT COLOR IS IT?) are the Tokyo Toyoko Stations. The green one is the last stop, Shin-yokohama on the JR Yokohama line.

(Notice the swimming icon? That’s the gym I go to.)

36 kilometers. Twice day day. 3 hours.  I used to hate it.

But now I think of it as 3 hours of uninterrupted (somewhat) time. I can read, sleep, catch up on feeds, and ponder on the question to 42.
