New Walk, Continued

The new walk is becoming a habit, the perfect way to unwind at the end of the day. I jump off the bus at one Metro stop, but walk two more stops up the road before boarding a train. The key word is "up."

It's about a mile from Rosslyn Metro to Clarendon Metro, but that doesn't include the elevation gain, a number I've yet to locate but which feels mighty big when you're hoofing it with a laptop at the end of a long workday.


One might be tempted to lag behind, like this little guy. But this little guy does not realize that Le Pain Quotidien is only a few blocks away — and that their crusty baguettes can be gone by 5:45. Nothing like a little French bread to put a skip in your step.


Though I fantasize about townhouses I pass along the way (so cute, so close in!), my walk leads not to a quaint bungalow — but a subway platform.  Not always as crowded as this one, I'm happy to say. But a subway platform just the same.
