‘where is my car?’

“Where is my car?” what an important question that I repeated many times. I am staying at my daughter’s condo for 2 weeks, so to be able to do some errands and visit the city of Vancouver, I rented a car for 2 weeks. My daughter had an appointment at 15.00 p.m., so 1/2 hour before the appointed time, we go out of the condo to get my car….no car!where is my car? I can tell you that I am panicking – I am new in this city, my daughter has an appointment, and here we are no car!

We go back up to her apartment, she cancels her appointment, and she calls “Busters” – the towing company. Thank God they have the car – it has been towed around 11.00 a.m. because it was parked too near the closest sidewalk. So I get into a taxi ,give the address , and while we are going there, I ask the driver if he has been there before – he starts to laugh and tells me quite candidly “yes of course, many times”! When I arrive there, I pay the charges, and I am very much surprised to see the many cars that are there parked, and new ones coming in being towed.

After paying the charges, I get into my car, drive away and start thinking how lucky I was to have been with my daughter who knew who to call to get my car back. I now have my peace of mind.
