As a travel enthusiast, I had always been fascinated by visiting different places and observing people until a few years back. If I couldn't travel physically, I used to quench my thirst on my computer screen relying on virtual reality.
Like numerous BBC fans, I retain my interest in viewing their Travel Show. This evening's programme featured a housing complex in Tokyo with an apartment building consisting of cubic shaped residences, resembling those of LEGO cubes. People have been living here since the 1970s, and as one person said, it is sad that the these residences are on their way to demolition. With very significant nostalgia, I remember using LEGO and other toys when teaching English language, Mathematics and Physics to my students in different countries.
In one of these, there is a DJ presenting music using the old Gramophone. This took me back to my boyhood days when I had seen my maternal grandfather listening to southern Indian classical music with his Gramophone records collection.
I think that though we have come a long way in terms of technology, I think that olden days were golden. It applies to Computer operating systems as well. I don't know whether every one will feel like the way I do: Windows 3.1 was much more presentable and user friendly and than the present Windows OS.
