My mother and I pleaded with him to please just pull over and ask someone for directions back to the highway, and he absolutely refused, and, in fact, assured us that we were not lost, he had just always wanted to know what was over here.
Mi madre y yo le suplicamos que se detuviera y preguntara a alguien cómo hacer para retomar la autovía. Se negó rotundamente y, de hecho, nos aseguró  que no estábamos perdidos, sino que simplemente siempre quiso saber qué había en ese lugar.
