Public Transport

Upon leaving the market, I grabbed a small lunch to eat on the go, because I didn't want to do the thing I did yesterday (wait too long to eat lunch that I ended up spoiling my appetite for dinner). There is a cheese shop at the market that makes a yummy mac & cheese with salmon, so that was an easy choice.

I decided to venture further afield than my feet could take me, so I needed to figure out how to get a bus.

It sounds easy, but there are a lot of problems to solve: what bus do I want? where does it stop? when is it coming? how to pay once I get on the bus? I solved all of those and soon I had an app on my phone that displayed the bus ticket to the driver and I was aboard a bus heading in the right direction.

Unfortunately, I spent most of the ride solving another problem: how to clean mac & cheese from my coat front and sleeve because it is now demonstrably true that I am not coordinated enough to walk and eat at the same time.Read more
