I also use this natty little function in my .bash_profile to cd to the last opened finder location.

This is a script written by a colleague. http://www.visualcortex.co.uk/. Add the following function to your .bash_profile in Apple OSX. Now open a directory in Finder, then open terminal and type cdf, your terminal will now change directory to the same one as the last Finder opened.

    # function to change directory to the one set in the last opened finder.
    cdf () {
       currFolderPath=$( /usr/bin/osascript <<"			EOT"
           tell application "Finder"
               try
                   set currFolder to (folder of the front window as alias)
               on error
                   set currFolder to (path to desktop folder as alias)
               end try
               POSIX path of currFolder
           end tell
    			EOT
       )
       echo "cd to \"$currFolderPath\""
       cd "$currFolderPath"
    }
