Mama Mia

We just got back tonight from a little trip out of town. We had some thing to do in another city.
At one point we felt like going out to see if we could locate a Starbucks in our travels as we were in a large city with a few of them...
Hubs used to live in that city so kind of has a bit of a working knowlege of the layout....
Anyway, we hopped in a cab(cabs are cheap here) and M told the driver a location to go to where he thought there was a Starbucks, so we started heading in that direction. Before we got far, M spotted a street that he remembered and then was torn- thinking there might possibly been one down that very street, he decided not to chance it and to keep going but then at the last second he told the driver to turn down the street. We tried to scan both sides and the side streets to find it...

After a few minutes of seeing nothing that resembled what we were looking for, M spontaneouly broke into song -

M-(to be sung in a folksy way) " I knew I shouldn't have turned down this street! I should have let the taxi keep going to the first spot..."
K- (to be sung in a half hearted Bohemian Rhapsody-esque)"Yes you shoulda, yes you shoulda, yes you shoulda"
Taxi driver: You sing very nicely.
US:(we forgot that although the taxi driver couldn't speak english, he could still hear us SINGING) ha ha ha ha oh, thankyou ha ha ha
Taxi driver: Is that an american song? Or a song from your country?
K- "No that's our own song."

M and K continue laughing and joking about it almost all the way to the starbucks which is just up the street. Way to go M!


(we gave the kind taxi driver special thanks- he was patient with us! He drove away with a smile.)
