A sea of people stretched out in front of me, clothes hangers flying every direction, small children lost in the impatient crowd of frantic people who all thought the same thing: "Today is the halfway point between Christmas and New Year's... there shouldn't be many people in Carrefour Laval today."
I was one such persons.
There were ladies pushing over-sized strollers that were originally designed to seat 2 small children that were currently holding 8 children between infanthood and 10 years old. Older couples who were cruising along in the hallway who, on the drop of a hat stopped and decided to change directions. Why would you do that? Why would you stop right in the middle of the flow of traffic and decide to contemplate which pot-pourri store you want to go in when clearly half the island of Laval is following you? Seriously?
Never again will I venture to the largest shopping centre in the province of Quebec on December 29th expecting there to be no one... next year, I'll aim for the 26th.
