Road to the mall |
Yesterday, I decided that I was going to walk to the New Sudbury Centre (mall). It is 4 miles from my hotel. My 'in town' journey wasn't anything exceptional. The actual temperature was on the cool side, but the full sun made it a lot warmer.
Couldn't figure out what this was????? |
Made it to the mall and made some purchases. I knew that there was no way that I could carry all the bags home. Because of my taxi issues, I decided that I should buy one of those cart things. I call them old lady carts (I actually have one in London , and use it for grocery shopping etc. hee hee). I found a store that carried them.... they wanted $40..... too much!!

Long story short..... I was hellbent on walking back to the hotel..... ended up buying two pieces of luggage (couldn't resist the sale). I placed my shopping bags inside and I was good to go! The luggage was heavy so I had to frequently alternate hands and stop to rest.
The last 30 minutes of my trek home was horrible. Felt like I was at the end of a 50 miler...... I was sweating, I was tired, I was cranky, my shoulders and arms were sore, and my feet hurt..... wanh, wanh, wanh...... I was kicking myself for not calling a taxi.
Lunch was quiche, chic pea salad, and quinoa salad. |
Once I got into my hotel room, the shoes came off and my feet went up on the coffee table. At that point, I decided that I would have felt much worse had I forked out the money for a taxi.

Wonder if Ronald knows? |
Gotta run.
