Seeing a Ghost

Yesterday, on my way home from the supermarket, I saw a familiar car up ahead. I caught up, and it was exactly the same as my old car – a 2003 Rav4, navy blue.

This isn’t mine, it is just a photo of one that looks just like mine – well, it isn’t mine anymore . . . 😦

I’m driving something bigger right now . . . but it isn’t the same. I loved the Rav4, it was just the right size. I got to sit up high in traffic, but it was little enough to get into the tightest parking space. It drove across the unpaved fields you have to drive to get to some addresses, it drove through water accumulated from a sudden rain storm, it carried all my friends . . . it just never gave me a problem. I can hardly wait to get another one. 🙂

  1. So another RAV4? I tried that car for a couple of months while in the States… loved it too!

  3. Did you hear that Earthling traded in his Rav4? Guess what he got…..another Rav4, cloned, with updates…. LOL!

    Sounds like you’re settling back into Doha quite nicely!

  4. It’s on my list, Ansam, for when I go back to the US. AdventureMan thinks he might want one, too. His and hers Rav4s 🙂

    Ha ha ha, Daggero, that’s just a photo, probably England, not Doha. But I do live in a really green neighborhood!

    No! No, Sparkle, I didn’t know he got another Rav4! Way cool! That’s what I am going to do, too! They are addictive, so green, and so reliable and so maneuverable. Yeh, Doha is relatively easy. It’s a lot smaller than Kuwait.
