Amusement From Above

I don’t really like the Christmas/Holiday crowds and I especially dislike the mall at this time of year. So I figure, go to Flatirons at noon, on a weekday, shouldn’t be too busy.

Wrong.

I had to drive around to two different areas of the mall to find a place to park. WHAT? Don’t you people work? You can’t ALL be on a lunch break, there are not that many businesses around here.

After dealing with the lines and mass of people, I needed coffee. In particular, a Gingerbread latte. Oh but wait, there is a massive queue. I get in line and wait. Babies are crying, mothers are shouting at their children, I am getting banged around by people laden with shopping bags.

I dislike crowds.

Now, back at work with a Gingerbread latte, already gone, and a half eaten apple fritter, I’m better, sort of.
