Bus Ride

I took my first bus ride yesterday (in NYC). The reason is that we needed another box from the Container Store for the new living room setup. The store is on the way home, but if you take a subway, get out, and get back on, you have to pay twice, but if you ride a bus for one of the legs, the second leg is free. So I'm cheap, but I also just wanted to try it out.
As you can see from the picture, it started out well: sunny day, almost no one else there, and we were zipping along. It only lasted a few blocks. Clouds appeared, more people got on the bus, and traffic came to a standstill as the rain started.
Eventually, I had to get out and run thrower few blocks in the rain. Fail.
