January 27, 2010 : Taking a Long Way to Get Home

I went to Lime Ridge and had lunch there. On the way home I took the 41 bus, which was probably a Mohawk bus.
No, not probably, but definitely, because I always take the 41 bus to get home.
But this time something was different.
Maybe it was because I was asleep at the time and didn't notice, I wasn't so sure, but I think the bus was going to Mohawk via a different place this time.
I started to realize that I should have looked at the sign on the front of the bus so I wouldn't have missed it.
In the end I saw the sign "Ottawa at Industrial" and soon after that there were no more signs and announcements on the bus.
So I was at a loss, then I asked the bus driver "Does this bus go to Mohawk?" and he said "Yes", so I decided to stay here until I saw Mohawk at Rice.
On the way, I was very worried that the bus driver was so focused on driving that he forgot and gave me a noncommittal answer,
because I still couldn't see any signs or announcements, but they came up halfway.
Then I finally saw the sign for Mohawk at Rice, but I had decided to stay on the bus because my destination was next to Mohawk at Rice.
All of a sudden, the bus driver shouted, "Do you want to go that way?" and I said, "NO-!" and rushed to get off the bus.
The bus was supposed to turn right at Mohawk at Rice, so I would have been taken the wrong way again if the guy hadn't told me.
He remembered what I asked, then it was really a bridge crossing before we got there.
The driver was very nice XD.
