A sudden and beautiful reminder provided by my mobile phone, from a trip through Tuscany eight years ago

in Throwback Thursday4 days ago

"Smart phones and smart phones, what can they bring to us so well that we adore them? So if you feel like making a phone call, pick up the phone and dial the number you want to call or take a classic mobile phone, not this modern wonder"... Some would say.

However, a mobile phone has long been more than just a phone.
It has been my camera and personal assistant for years, and with the addition of AI to the software, everything is even more spicy.

And what happened to me today, just this Thursday, in #TBT day, when in the #ThrowBackThursday community, we remember some events from the past?
This phone of mine dug up some pictures from the 2017 trip to Italy, which I called "Get lost on the roads of Tuscany", from the photo archive and packed them into a short video.

What else could I do but click on ScreenRecorder and let you know which photos my phone chose to remind me of with this short video?

Manarola (Cinque Terre), Pisa, San Gimignano, Siena, Florence, Milan, Sirmione (Lago di Garda).

I will not share the photos with you now, maybe they are already in some posts.
But I have to share this surprise that my phone gave me and reminded me of a wonderful trip we had at the end of April 8 years ago.
What else, but to wish to repeat such a trip.
I would just make a small change from previous experience. Either I would choose fewer locations to visit, so that I could devote enough time to each location I visit, or I would decide on a much better option and extend the number of days for my stay 🙂
Whatever I choose from traveling in Italy in the future, I will remember this video as a great reminder of what I once enjoyed and I will remember that it was an incentive for me to embark on a similar journey again.

All the photos that the phone packed in this memory video are my property, taken with one of the older phones, the model I used in 2017. Now if they promise me a reward if I remember which one it was, it wouldn't be worth it 😀 I've exchanged a lot of them since then.

That's a nice photo gallery packed into a video "shorts"! I'm so lame with AI stuff, and procrastinating learning about shorts, but sooner or later, I will have to do it... 😃

While watching the video, before reading the post, I thought that I recognized one place! And there it was, Sirmione and Lago di Garda! Such a beautiful place! As we were there only for a few hours, I also have a wish to go back again, and maybe take a few days, jump in the lake on that cool beach inside the castle...

When I saw the collection of pictures and Sirmione, I remembered your story from a few months ago. We, like you, were there for a very short time, so that tour should be repeated 🙂

Greetings, brother! Wow, you really took pictures of iconic places with that phone; the video turned out great, and I sincerely hope you can repeat the experience. This is one of the countries I want to visit and I hope to do so soon; I'm putting all my energy into it. Thanks for sharing this excellent post with us in video format. I wish you a great day and send you a huge hug! 🙏

This is one of the countries I want to visit and I hope to do so soon; I'm putting all my energy into it.

It will pay off for every bit of effort you put into trying, as well as every $ you spend on the occasion.
Greetings to you, I wish you a nice weekend, if only it still reaches your side of the world, you still have a day :-)
