Commuting, Houston Style

Today, I took Bluet to school. This might not sound like a big deal, but unfortunately when they built Houston, they forgot to make it fully habitable, and as a result the public transport is not very, (how do you put it?) Good. So the trip involves a 10 minute walk to the train, a short wait (pictured, Bluet a little damp as it was drizzling), 5 minutes on the train (which Bluet loves), then a 20 minute walk to daycare. The pavements are poorly kept, so there were puddles of water to be avoided whilst walking, but we made it safely. All the time, Bluet talked about everything she could see around (aeroplanes, all the numbers, taxi's etc) and I tried to teach her the colours of passing cars. I am pretty sure that walking a mile and a half with Bluet on my shoulders counts as good exercise.
