My first long car drive

Yesterday I rented a car for the first time in the USA. Apart from other things, which i will post later, I drove for about 28 miles on my own, and that too without a GPS system. I noted the route, to and back from Lenox Mall, and started. All was fine until I reached Lenox Mall; I did shopping and then wanted to buys some toys from ToysRus. And almost got lost. Here's the route that I took from my hotel, and how I drifted for about 4 miles and then got back on track!

I finally managed to get to ToysRus and then, after losing my way somehow managed got back to my hotel too; not by the exact route that I had noted and wanted to take.
