After spending nearly three hours waiting in line to take photos at a popular tourist spot, the author reflects on whether the time spent was worth it. Despite capturing some nice shots, they question if it was worth sacrificing such a significant portion of their travel time. The author suggests implementing a limit of 15 photos per tourist to reduce wait times for others. This would help ensure that everyone has a chance to take photos without dedicating hours to waiting in line. Ultimately, the author is left contemplating the trade-off between capturing memorable moments and maximizing their limited time while traveling.
