I needed to get a present for the company year end party so I decided to go by bus. As I tried dutifully to get on using the rear door as customary in this part of the country, the driver stopped short, opened the front door and said he was running a short route due to the marathon that was being run. I was going to walk to the train station to take the long way around when he mentioned I could transfer to another bus at the hospital. Passenger behind him said that she was doing exactly that. I got on the bus and told the passenger I was going to follow her. Since there was no bus for a while we ended up calling a cab and sharing it with 2 others, splitting the fare at the end.
