On the bus

It’s really cold and I hurt my knee so I’ve been riding the bus. In Ottawa you can go anywhere you want for 1 1/2 hours on one fare. (It would be an even better deal if one fare didn’t cost $3, but that’s another story.)

I got on the 85 and went to the office to check in a few files, and then I got on the 4 and went to Hartman’s for a bit of shopping, and then I took the 2 home. All for one fare! I like that.

How cold is it? This cold.

This place is on Bronson next door to where I work.

No shopper has ever been seen to enter Spytech. That’s because they sneak in the back way, being spies and all.

I took a few pictures on the bus. This man knew I was taking his picture.

This woman was completely absorbed in her book. Looks like a real page-turner.

At Hartman’s I tried to take a picture of the lobsters, but there wasn’t much light in their tank and they kept moving. Anyway here they are. They’re dead but they don’t know it yet.

Then my 1 1/2 hours were up so I went home. Bye for now!

    Great post, Robin; I like your comments as you show your photos, like a tour. I also like last year’s picture; it’s kind of mesmerizing.

    I love that picture from a year ago. Amazing that it was taken pretty much right in downtown Ottawa.
