My mom noticed this...

I was walking down the street (in Chengdu) and wanted to get a picture of the Monk that I was about to walk by... that was my main objective!



Later, when I was talking to my mom on the phone, the first thing she noticed was not the Monk.... but the car on the walkway!

"Stacy.... umm.... is that car on the walkway.... why isn't it on the street and why is coming straight towards you in the picture." Asked my mom.

"Oh.... yeah.... thats common. I just move out of the way... sometimes people will drive on the walkway instead of the road. Not sure why, but oh well.... you just kinda get of the way." I replied.

Now... to me this was very normal... and I had just become accustomed to it. But for my mom she was just astonished. Realizing now that certain things that would seem abnormal or unusual, or out of the ordinary.... just doesn't even phase me anymore but are common.
