It’s A Whole nü Way To Travel
Hi friends!
It feels like I’m traveling in a time warp because I have no idea where the time has gone!
If you haven’t noticed already, Grace Picks has a brand new look and logo! With the new look, images will be upgraded as well. I will be taking pics with a point-and-shoot instead of my iPhone.
To celebrate, if you leave a comment on this post by the end of today, I will randomly choose a winner to receive one of the items on my ‘gracelist’! Hooray for celebrations!
Speaking of nü…
The nüvi® 350 and I are good friends. It’s dependable, helpful, and thoughtful. I even tell people that nüvi saved my marriage since it helps prevent some arguments on the road. ;)
It’s the perfect solution for everyone because we all know that men hate asking for directions but they love gadgets. And this device is especially great for people who travel a lot.
I recently saw one of their clever ads that marketed to nüviweds [newlyweds]. Now, I’m just waiting for them to come out with a live traffic feature… and to do my laundry.

Hi Grace!
We LOVE our Garmin nuvi as well! Being that we’re in a new city, we rarely leave home without it! :]

4. jennifer | July 31, 2008 at 07:53am
ditto. the new look is fabulous!
5. Margot | July 31, 2008 at 08:08am
Actually, my boyfriend and I used the Nuvi to drive cross-country from New Jersey to Seattle, and I firmly believe it’s one of the reasons we’re still together!

Ooh… New Look = Hot Stuff, just like it’s author/creator :)
Let me know when nuvi starts doing your laundry! :)

Always excited to see new postings! Need one of those for our honeymoon in Hawaii :)

I dunno about these gps gadgets. They take the fun out of getting lost, exploring, and stumbling upon new places…
9. Yeji Kim | July 31, 2008 at 09:22am
Oooh love the new look and logo is cute! Keep the posts coming =]

Love the new look! I may have to invest in the nuvi….although living in DC, I don’t have much need for navigation.
11. hun | July 31, 2008 at 12:54pm
Nuvi for reals saved our marriage… amen. :]

Hi Grace. I love the nüvi. I moved to a new city recently and I never go anywhere without it. It’s saved me quite a few times when I’ve taken a wrong turn. Truly Amazing! I hope all is well. Blessings and much love.

I love my nuvi! I moved to seattle not to long ago and it helped me learn to navigate around my new city with ease.
14. michelle | July 31, 2008 at 02:55pm
i love the fun info you share and end up passing it along to my girlfriends. :)
15. Jonathan Chu | July 31, 2008 at 03:21pm
Point and shoot? you had such a great thing going with the iGrace! :-) it’s definitely cute! Well GracePics will be great too! No doubt!
has the nuvi been good? my friend has it and it’s always taking him weird ways in his home town. He wonders about it when he’s out of town… i have yet to join the GPS elites. Good ole google maps and a map book are my friends.
16. lana | July 31, 2008 at 03:21pm
hii grace! how would you compare the nuvi to the iphone gps?
17. Sylvia | July 31, 2008 at 06:07pm
I remember when that nuvi got us lost in DC!!! Good times, good memories…the “funnest night ever”! =)
18. Jinyoung Lee | July 31, 2008 at 06:39pm
This would be so much safer to use than my gps on my tiny blackberry. ;)
Congrats on the new look and the premiere!
19. Jen | July 31, 2008 at 09:17pm
I like the new look a lot!
20. aLi. | August 1, 2008 at 12:06am
i have a garmin, not a nuvi – i wonder how they compare in terms of usability … well, in any case, glad that it prevents arguments! :D the new logo/masthead looks awesome!
21. GraceY | August 2, 2008 at 11:24pm
I want a gracelist item!
22. JimmyL | August 7, 2008 at 03:16pm
Darn. I guess I kinda missed the bus on entering the contest!
Yeah, live traffic would be SO money.

Daniel – I agree with you for those leisure times. But these are for those non-adventure-I-have-to-get-to-point-B-quick times. :)
Jonathan – nüvi has done wrong once or twice, but that’s nothing compared to all the other times it gets me to places. It’s even better than the one that came in our Beemer.
Lana – The iPhone GPS is great for when I’m on foot, but I can’t imagine looking at the tiny imagery while driving. Also, the voice on nüvi helps me a ton.
Ali – The nüvi is made by Garmin. :)
Grace & Jimmy – Sorry, maybe next time!
