Up & down
Life has its ups and downs… and boy, are they fun! I am talking about lifts and escalators, of course!
I did not get to ride many lifts in Bloomington because it there weren’t many tall buildings there. But when we made a pit stop in New York, I rode in lifts about as often as we took the subway! I loved the sensation of going up and down.
Now I need to take the lift up and down from our flat. (Why it is called a flat when it is so high up?) Then we go off some place else and I get to step on and off escalators!
The ones at shopping centres are slower and are good for practice. But the ones at the train stations are so fast! Papa used to lift me on and off them, but now I know how to do it myself!
I like doing this so much that I once declared that it was “my favorite” thing to do. It was right up there with visiting book stores and libraries.
Now all I need is a library and book store with lots of lifts and elevators… oh, yes!
