Agreed. No sympathy for the conference in Chile, need a sherpa?
I am not looking forward to the 10th ave commute with all those in category 1. But I have no fears about the north south one, they will probably stay off the main roads.
Though BTWW may find me looking for a new route home from daycare.
It was a great commute home today. Watched a parallel parking fender bender, with the woman in the parked car too. I just waited, the victim checked the damage and decided she was not going to report it or worry. Otherwise I was a witness for her, she did not want my info though. The parking car ended up with a nice gouge, I guess she hit the parked cars license plate and scraped her bumper.
Got to the boy and get him saddled up and putzed along, our coasting speed is 20 km per hour, pretty quick I think. We even ran into some friends and their new born; it was nice to see them out and about. They were looking good for having a toddler and newborn.
Got home only to find other friends were waiting for us to bring the sushi. Great commute and night!
