The Tourists are Coming!

I haven't seen any Segway tours yet, but these past few weeks I have noticed the arrival of tourists! Like the Groundhog looking for his shadow (which incidentally, was 6 weeks ago. . . doesn't that mean Spring should start now?), in March, we look for the telltale signs of the spring tourism season:
  • Giving directions on metro regarding correct stop (Friday)
  • Giving directions in metro regarding correct exit to street level (Monday morning)
  • Large group of school-aged students being counted outside of museum (Monday noon)
  • Tour bus dropping off outside suburban metro station (This morning)

If any of you would like our tour guide services, you'd better get out here fast! Remember, we'll only be here another 3 1/2 months - and I don't expect we'll be conducting many tours after mid-May due to baby.
