Magical Mystery Tour

This morning, it seems part of one road was blocked off to our bus, so we were detoured. This wouldn't have been such a big deal if there hadn't been a bus stop missed by the detour. Our dutiful driver decided that he would not miss his stops, naturally enough, so we spent about ten minutes searching the back streets for a way around the blockade to the scheduled stop. At one point we were headed back home, and nobody cheered when we made it back onto the scheduled route.

Fortunately, running non-air-conditioned busses at this time of year is forbidden by the Geneva Convention, so we weren't too uncomfortable during the ordeal.

PS - I say "ordeal", but it was really more like taking a scenic route.
PPS - Except there was no scenery.

I wish that were true - the Geneva convention thing. I got an old bus yesterday afternoon on the way home from work - it was not fun.
