Argh!

It took us 50 minutes to drive to a place that should take 5 minutes to get to. First, it was the rush hour traffic, then it was the vehicles who decided to make a two-way street a one way, then it was a huge crowd of marchers blocking all the streets we wanted to turn onto, and finally it was half of those marchers who then decided to SIT ON THE GROUND in the middle of the street, forcing all the cars to reverse and find alternate routes. Jerry commented that most of ground-sitters probably did not even know why they were marching/protesting/sitting in the first place. I must say that I agree. And what were the police doing? nothing.

I will try to write something positive next time.
