It has nothing to do with efficiency - all about rule following. So weird!<br />And the traffic lights around here are the same. We have learned that if you're riding a bike, you get the "green wave" but not so lucky in a car.Danahttp://www.foltice.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29447273.post-34929753602239477802011-04-10T10:35:43.419-07:002011-04-10T10:35:43.419-07:00you're welcome :) Lucy flew cargo and I was s...you're welcome :) Lucy flew cargo and I was sooooo worried, she hated even being in a cage. But surprisingly, she was fine.

I have enjoyed your recent blogs. It was good to know bringing your dog was not tooooo bad. However, I will be traveling with two not so mini dachshunds: a short hair and an English cream long hair. Having to fly in cargo concerns me. Thanks for sharing your experiences as a outsider looking in. It become comic relief when considering such a major move!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29447273.post-27072250872545102672011-04-06T10:58:06.327-07:002011-04-06T10:58:06.327-07:00Very nice!

Beeing a german, I can tell you that we all suffer from these traffic lights and other german over-sufficiency. <br />For queuing I have my own explanation. Indeed we take it serious to keep the right order. However we avoid to show it. I think it is the aversion beeing controlled like it has been during the third reich. Most germany will avoid marching lock-step or even building a queue. Sounds funny, but I think that is the cause.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
