Moments to treasure

No serious ranting today, just want to share a few funny moments from yesterday...

Rob: (spoken with great excitement) "What a cool place, all of the tables look like pianos!"

Laura: "It's a piano shop"

On the way back from the cinema, having watched "The Lady in the Water" (don't go, just don't) our van suddenly stopped at the side of the road. Out climbed our driver (into a 3-lane Expressway!) and then came the smell of smoke. Yep, the radiator was empty and we were burning oil.

Laura began to feel uncomfortable stuck on the back seat: "I wanna get out, the van could explode!"

So 14 passengers spent 15 minutes huddling behind a steaming van and a tow-truck, in the narrow area between the Expressway itself and the entry slip road. Cars, trucks, buses whizzing past at over 100kph. And guess who was the only one trying to take pictures of the speeding traffic...? Yep, our very own Laura Croft :o)

Definitely not scary! Don't go because you spent your time sitting there, trying to figure out what in the world this movie is supposed to be... do they try to be scary? funny? emotional? romantic?
No clue, really...
