and the streets were packed and fast. At one point the driver just went up on the sidewalk for a while to get around. He went up on the sidewalk, not slowly out of respect for the pedestrians, he went up on the sidewalk fast and I thought I was going to lose either my life or preferably my lunch. All was well but I was a lot more careful when walking down the street after that. Apparently that was not all that unusual.
